I'm trying to use my PVR150 with s-video for DirecTv and coax for over-the-air channels. This worked with R5D1 but doesn't work in Watch Tv for R5F27.

I know I can't record from multiple inputs simultaneously, but I should be able to toggle between them. I suspect something changed in "Watch Tv" to disallow the switch while you're in that mode.

What are you doing to try and change the inputs? The c key on the keyboard should cycle through the inputs on the card.

I use two inputs on one of my cards so I can either use the tuner, or record channels off my cable box. It still works fine, but I haven't tried switching inputs while watching.

I recall reading in a recent post that a change in ivtv (as of the version in R5F27) now prevents changing card inputs on the fly. If I can track it down again, I'll post it.

Thanks. If IVTV really did change, then I don't have anything setup wrong. I might have to go to an older version of IVTV then, since I like using two channnel lists(one for svideo and one for coax) and switching between them in watchtv.

I have the same problem. The "c" command doesn't work for switching inputs on the fly. Please let us know what you determine with regards to the version of IVTV and switching inputs on the fly. I have been working on this problem all day. Two inputs worked in the previous version but not R5F27.

Here's where I saw the comment about ivtv ...

Look for a post by ghede about the 4th down in the thread.

I went back to R5F1 and the 'C' key works. This must have changed only in R5F27.
