[mythtv-users] cx88-blackbird & avermedia M150-D

[Sam Logen]

Hi, thanks for the great suggestion!  I wasn't sure if
the card worked, I wasn't able to test it until now. 
Now I know it does.

  Now, I'm cc'ing the mythtv mailing list as well for
this question, if anyone could please help: To get it
working under MythTV, how do I enable it in the
mythtv-setup program?  I've tried setting it up as a
hardware mpeg2 device, and a v4l device, but I keep
getting a blank screen and mythtv freezes.

Thank you everyone for the great support,
Sam

video2 is MPEG, which xawtv isn't able to read.
As a simple test, try tunning into a channel (on
video1) with xawtv,
 and
then (on another terminal) run "mplayer /dev/video2".
You should get an
mpeg stream of the channel that's active on video1.
