[mythtv-users] Via Eden with PVR350 was working

[Jonathan Moore]

Thanks for the response and the guide! To update, I setup a second frontend on my 
laptop and it works great with this backend, which reinforces the whole pvr decoder 
not being used. See below.

Yes, there are a few things that have changed, but the general principal is still sound. 
Mostly some package names have changed and they were fairly easy to find with 
apt-get

No I don't see any mention of it, but it is clearly checked in the settings and shows it 
being assigned to /dev/video16. I have tried unchecking and restarting and checking 
again. I have rerun make install, and I have completely wiped the mythconverg 
database.   
 
Any ideas why it would not be picking this up?
