<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">So, owing to the fact that they're getting a bit old and more difficult to find, I bought another HD-PVR from E-Bay.<br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">After it arrived I decided that I should test it, so I swapped all of the cables from my working HD-PVR and put them inm the new one. I had to reconfigure mythtv to use /dev/video0 (as I'd been using udev to name the original device a /dev/HDPVR) but, unfortunately I wasn't able to record anything.</span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I then swapped the original HDPVR back and now I find that that one won't work either.</span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></p>
<p style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; padding: 0px; margin: 0px;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I could really do with some troubelshooting assistance, as I've tried everything I can thinkl of (cat /dev/video0 > test.ts results in an empty file)</span></p>
