Hello all,

2004-11-18 20:37:23 Your database is most likely setup incorrectly.

I have defined some channels, and run the Zapit mythfilldatabase correctly.

Also the program guide doesn't seem to list any programs

I'm using a PVR 350

any tips?

Thanks so much,
Michael

I'd say something isn't correct in your setup. The way to use Zap2It is via "directdata". Check the MythTV docs on how to set it up.

For anyone who runs into this problem, I overcame this issue, by installing the latest IVTV driver and utilities. (0.1.9 I believe)

I also tweaked my /etc/mythtv/modules/ivtv to look like this;


alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
options ivtv debug=2
options tuner type=2
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 tuner
add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c
post-install ivtv /usr/local/bin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video0 -u 0x3000
post-install ivtv /usr/local/bin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video16 -u 0x3000
post-install ivtv /usr/local/bin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video32 -u 0x3000
post-install ivtv /usr/local/bin/test_ioctl -d /dev/video224 -u 0x3000
