I tried many windows versions, including mce, gbpvr, media portal etc etc etc. Not happy with any of them, so now i'm trying mythtv via knoppmyth. My hardware: DNTV Live! Pro Twinhan DVB-S Sat Ci P4 1.9ghz 512mb ram ATI Radeon Sapphire 9250 I've done the install process, but how on earth do i get it to 'see' these video cards, and then do a scan for channels?! |

OK...not sure how much linux you know, but the straight forward answer is: 1) Exit the front end assuming its running (Esc key) 2) Open a terminal (xterm by right click on desktop) or switch to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F2) 3) run mythtv-setup from command line (Ctrl-Alt-F7 to get back to GUI) |

Before running mythtv-setup dont forget to bring down the backend server if you're gonna add a DVB card. Code: /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend stop and when you want to start the backend server again just type Code: /etc/init.d/mythtv-backend start
you need to be root to start the server if I remember correctly. (?) |

There are some key combinations to do this stuff: Alt-2 (stops the backend) Alt-S (brings up mythtv-setup) Alt-1 (starts the backend) Alt-M (starts the frontend) |

Hi Deeps Did your card work with a straight build of knoppmyth ? I have a DNTV live pro card and have just downloaded the ISO I was going to attemp to set knoppmyth up this weekend so any info would be greatly appreicated. |
