[mythtv-users] second TV card not working under Mythtv

Does the video device match up in mythtv-setup. For example, when using xvtime you use /dev/video1 so when you setup the card are you using /dev/video1? Also, did you tie an input source to the video card. You could also try chmod 666 /dev/video1 to see if that makes a difference.

Hi,
I 
have 
a 
working 
Myth 
setup 
with 
2 
tuner 
cards, 
a 
Dvico 
dual 
4 
digital
and 
a 
Pixelview 
bt878+p, 
all 
required 
modules 
load 
and 
cards 
are
recognised 
fine.

The 
dual 
4 
works 
great 
with 
both 
on 
board 
digital 
tuners 
- 
no 
issues.

The 
Pixelview 
is 
recognised 
by 
the 
Myth-setup 
and 
all 
*seems* 
fine,
and 
even 
using 
xawtv 
or 
Tvtime 
on 
the 
desktop 
I 
can 
view 
the 
video 
in
my 
Pixelview 
card, 
however 
if 
I 
try 
to 
use 
it 
under 
Myth 
I 
cannot 
get
anything, 
no 
sound 
no 
picture.

In 
the 
mythbackend 
log 
I 
get:

2008-02-18 
02:48:57.142 
TVRec(3): 
HW 
Tuner: 
3->3
VIDIOCGCHAN: 
Invalid 
argument
VIDIOCMCAPTUREi0: 
Device 
or 
resource 
busy
(repeat 
forever)

I 
cannot 
find 
anything 
that 
I 
can 
get 
more 
information. 
Has 
anyone 
got
any 
pointers 
I 
can 
start?

The 
frustrating 
thing 
is 
it 
working 
outside 
Myth 
:-(

Thanks 
for 
any 
help,

Greg
