Okay..its been a couple of days..so I'm posting again..


I have been able to capture video using

cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg

yet..when fire up myth and goto TV...Im getting this error:

error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
error reading from: /dev/video0

thoughts??

from my messages log I see this..(from boot up)

any suggestions on what I could I have screwed up (I'm assuming it has to be
a myth config issue)

many humble thanx :)



ps...

pvr-350, fedora core 1, nforce2 (only using pvr-350 for video out), been
following Jarods greatly appreciated how-to :)
