[mythtv-users] Need MPEG recorder, but compiled without MPEG support! (gentoo 0.20_p11244)

[Pshem Kowalczyk]

Hi,

I have a really weird problem with my mythtv box. I just upgraded to
0.20 (on gentoo, using the ~x86 package) and now I can't watch live tv
any more. Quick debug reveals the following:

The card is a Hauppauge WinTV PVR-150 and i had no problems with it
playing tv directly using mplayer.

I had a look on the configure options as well as on the keywords for
mythtv in portage but haven't found anything usefull regarding MPEG
support. I also tried changing the stream type from MPEG-2 to DVD
(various versions), but the message is exactly the same.

Any ideas what might be the cause?
