[00:13] <wangel> Hello everyone :)
[00:41] <wangel> if anyone has time... I bought a Hauppauge HVR-1600 .... I did quick research, found that it was supported (or so I thought) in linux.   I'm having 1 HECK of a time getting it to work in Mythbuntu.  Any tips?  I followed what was in the wiki, it seems the kernel see's the card, blah blah blah ... just can't get it to scan for channels?
[01:00] <tgm4883`> wangel, my hvr-1600 works fine
=== tgm4883` is now known as tgm4883
[01:12] <wangel> tgm; man I am having 1 heck of a time getting it to work =(
[01:12] <wangel> are you using it for OTA signals only?
[01:19] <tgm4883> wangel, use my full nick and it will ping me when you respond
[01:19] <tgm4883> wangel, no, I'm using it with comcast
[01:19] <tgm4883> wangel, what type of card did you set it up as in mythtv-setup?
[01:20] <wangel> tgm4883; ahh.  Hmm.  My cable company requires us to use a "digital minibox" so I assume that means the channels are encrypted.  I wanted to use it to grab the OTA signals.
[01:20] <wangel> tgm4883; I set it up as the DVB using the frontend0 device, and the analog as Mpg2 using /dev/video0
[01:20] <tgm4883> wangel, Have you tried using it connected to cable without the box?
[01:20] <tgm4883> worth a shot I say
[01:21] <tgm4883> I don't even bother with the analog
[01:21] <wangel> I have not, but I can try.
[01:21] <wangel> Ok
[01:21] <wangel> then I'll leave analog alone.  nothing uses it right?
[01:22] <wangel> When I told it to do a channel scan, it used uhm... VS8 ?  It never found anything... figured that's where I was going wrong.
[01:22] <tgm4883> yea that isn't right
[01:22] <tgm4883> where do you live?
[01:22] <wangel> Louisville
[01:22] <wangel> KY
[01:23] <wangel> if it's any help
[01:23] <wangel> I uhm
[01:23] <tgm4883> zip?
[01:23] <wangel> 47130
[01:23] <wangel> found a website in the uk ... forgot the url
[01:23] <wangel> that had me install dvb-utils
[01:24] <tgm4883> wangel, insight cable?
[01:24] <wangel> and I was able to something like scan /usr/share/dbn/atsc/us-atscxxxxxxxxx
[01:24] <wangel> Yep, insight cable
[01:24] <tgm4883> hook it up to cable and use qam256
[01:24] <wangel> really?  haha
[01:24] <wangel> they don't encode channels?
[01:24] <tgm4883> wangel, it's possible some are encrypted
[01:24] <wangel> ah, ok

[01:25] <wangel> oh wow
[01:25] <wangel> yah
[01:25] <wangel> yah, 8vsb!
[01:25] <wangel> that's what I used
[01:25] <wangel> or thought I did
[01:25] <tgm4883> there is no guarentee that you will get anything on cable, but it's worth a shot
[01:25] <wangel> yah
[01:25] <tgm4883> wangel, I don't recall the last time I scanned for channels
[01:25] <wangel> i'll try it :D
[01:26] <tgm4883> I might have just fetched via schedules direct
[01:26] <wangel> ah
[01:26] <tgm4883> or fed in a channels.conf
[01:26] <wangel> ya
[01:27] <tgm4883> wangel, what version of mythtv?
[01:27] <wangel> I downloaded the latest version of mythbuntu off the website
[01:27] <wangel> I didn't run apt-get upgrade or anything tho
[01:28] <tgm4883> I'd activate the mythtv updates repo and do the upgrade
[01:28] <tgm4883> lots of fixes since the released version
[01:29] <wangel> ok
[01:29] <wangel> I'll do that
