I am not a linux guru. I have enough knowledge to setup and run linux but when it comes to caputure cards and ivtv - bbtv - mythtv i am a NOOB. I have spent about 18 hour on the thing and i am not going to give up ! HARDWARE- Gigabyte mainboard 865chipset with P4 3.2Ghz 775 2GIG ram 5900Ultra, marvell yukon gigabit nic MCE PVR-500 Now that we have that covered i will explain my problem. The first time that i installed R5A15 i tryed with default setting and then i got just static in live tv. I found that i cannot use the scan channels button in the mythtv-setup. i have tryed various ivtv versions and with various outcomes, some a red screen and then others just static. the 2nd time i followed the tutorial on : http://www.bitbenderforums.com/~ralpha6 ... mythtv.htm on just got static. The problem (i believe) is that i cannot get the channel information into mythtv. When i am logged in and running mythtv-setup as the user mythtv the scan for channels is greyed out. When i am in as root then i just cant tab to it or click it. Is there a way of manually inputing the infomation into mythtv? (Advanced button also greyed out) When i download the infomation from tv_grab_Au and input the data into myth backend does it get frequency information or is it just guide DATA? Also i had to install the nic drivers manually and the logitec wireless kb and mouse didnt work in the setup program(i just pluged in a ps2 one) |
