Anyone have an ABIT IS-10 (or any other Intel 685G chipset) mnthboard w/PVR-350, Tv-Out working?

When starting tv, I get about 10 seconds of slow motion picture then it freezes. Any ideas why?

Checked the /var/log/messages and found:
PCI: found IRQ 5 for device 1:9.0 (iVTV15)
PCI: Sharing IRQ5 with 0:1f.3 ( lspci say its SMBus: Intel corp,: unknown device 24d3 (rev 02) )
PCI: Sharing IRQ5 with 0:1f.5 ( lspci say its:Multimedia audio controller: Intel corp,: unknown device 24d5 (rev 02) )
.

.
spurious 8259A Interupt: IRQ7

Checked the /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log and found:
Could not read data from the capture card in 15 seconds.....

Checked the /var/log/debug and did not find any errors.


Setup steps:

1) Installed R4V4, using auto install
2) Ran setup and got picture on crt (no sound)
3) Noted that s/pdif 5.1 port not lit up....
4) edited /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv (per wiki thread)
5) following instructions, rmmod...,insmod...
6) captured video from /dev/video ok
7) dd'ed from video to video16, picture but no sound
recompiled ivtv for new msp3400.o
9) re-ran dd, got picture and sound
10) modified XF86Config-4
11) rebooted
12) GUI appears
tests:
13) freeze on watch tv
14) tried music, no sound
15) no video on non-crypted DVD (Benny Hill )
16) get weather ok
17) get news feeds ok

FYI, originally tried SageTv and Tv-Out works ok without GUI, with GUI, it freezes. Appears that there is a problem with Haupauge's drvers and the combo of newer intel chipset and pvr-350 tv-out. I assume ivtv is using their own driver to power pvr-350.....

Thanks.

I have an ABIT IS-10 motherboard w/PVR-350, R4V4.1 installed.
Installing the normal way was impossible, because the installation halted scroll lock and caps lock flashing. At the boot prompt typing tv vga=normal option the installation went smoothly. The other steps were similar, except installing ivtvdev_drv.o. EPG now works great on the tv.

Thanks for the response.

I assume you applied the X fix from http://membres.lycos.fr/badzzzz/ Did you also apply the patches he has (ivtv-fb-fix-prepdma.diff)?

Are you getting sound from the PVR-350 and piping it back into the sound card or going directly to your AV receiver or TV? I noticed that the 5.1 port "light" is not turned on with KnoppMyth install (does turn on under w2k), therefore I assume it isn't enabled or there is no driver for it......

Thanks.

Yes
>Did you also apply the patches he has (ivtv-fb-fix-prepdma.diff)?
No

The sound goes directly to the TV. The internal player sends the video and sound directly to the TV (unlike mplayer).

Thanks for your help.

With the ivtvdev_drv.o I get video from tv-out. But appears to be dropping frames or not updating in a smooth fashion. My eyes tire watching the basketball game last night.

Found a few DMA read error messages.

Will do a total rebuild this weekend and check it again. May try wrooters way if it doesn't fix this problem....

Regards.
