[mythtv-users] Got system, first issue: No Live TV

[Nick Ellson]

Hey All,

I have my first MythTV system up, and after beating at things for a day or 
so I have gotten: IVTV 0.6.1 up on Kernel 2.6.16 where

mplayer /dev/video0 or video1 show my PVR-500 video great.

mythfrontend when I hit Live TV get's a black screen, with the invariable 
retry countdown till 0 then pops back to the menu.

My /mnt/mythtv/tv volume never gets a stream file written to it. (hence 
the failure for the frontend to sic mplayer at it.

2006-03-25 21:05:02.358 RingBuf(/mnt/mythtv/tv/1009_20060325210456.mpg): 
Invalid  file (fd 14) when opening 
'/mnt/mythtv/tv/1009_20060325210456.mpg'. 1 retries r emaining.

dmesg gives during the attempt:
