I have a R5F1 that i upgraded from a R5D1. Since the upgrade i haven't been able to make recordings because they are og zero size.
I can't se anything wrong in /var/log/messages
In /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log is says
2007-08-12 21:49:24.841 MPEGRec(/dev/video1) Error: select timeout - ivtv driver has stopped responding
I can se that the rights of the recorded file in /myth/tv is set to group 102 which is a group that doesn't exist on my system. This can be due to me fumbling around with groups to get my samba to work right.
Which group should be owner of the recordings in /myth/tv? and who is the member of this group.

they should be owned by mythtv (102). Sounds like you have indeed messed up the /etc/group file. This file is very easy to understand, so change it back to 102.

Of course the whole point is that these are _symbolic_ names and you should just be able to run the mkmythdir script and have it fix up the directory ownerships...

Hi tjc and thank you for the reply.
I ran the mkmythdir as root and the dir owners and groups are corrected. A la _al confirms that mythtv and mythtv are owner and group.
Still my recordings generates files of zero size in /myth/tv.
Rights of the files are:
Code: root@BE:/myth/tv# ls -al
total 49283728
drwxrwxr-x 2 mythtv mythtv 8192 Aug 13 17:39 .

Did you go through the R5F1 hints and deal with all the ivtv related stuff? Driver versions have changed substantially and you probably have stale configs.

Hi Tjc.
The issue solved thanks to your post installation hints.
I Did the
Code: update-rc.d set_ivtv_params defaults
Dropped cards and recreated them once again.
This solved the issue.
Thank you for the help

I was a bit fast on this one. The error had apparently gone with the update-rc.d command. Apparenmtlyt because it looks like it is everyother recording that has the error of delivering recording mpeg files of zero bytes lenght.
