[mythtv-users] PVR-350 TVOut almost working; get sound, no video

[James Pifer]

Jens, 

I found the posts in the archives you were referring to. Problem is I
can't run ivtvfbctl and I can't find anywhere in the archive or docs on
how to compile it or whatever needs to be done to be able to run it. 

Sorry for the very basic question, but what do I have to do to get
ivtvfbctl installed? I've searched my system and all I find are some
ivtvfbctl.c files, so I assume it needs compiling.

Thanks,
James
