[15:43] <stevie_man> wondering if anyone remembers how to setup the PVR-150 card? I still have a few analog channels I'd like to get
[16:10] <tgm4883> stevie_man, it was pretty easy, set it up as an mpeg encoder card
[16:11] <stevie_man> tgm4883: lspic -n sees the card but mythtv-setup does not
[16:12] <tgm4883> odd
[16:13] <tgm4883> I haven't used mine in years so IDK
[16:13] <tgm4883> does it have a /dev/video#
[16:22] <stevie_man> tgm4883: odd is right. I'm running .24 if that makes a difference
[16:23] <stevie_man> tgm4883: not sure which /dev/video# might be assigned to the 150 card. I know it's not 1 but there is a 0
[16:34] <stevie_man> tgm4883: but video0 is not an option in -setup, just video1 which is my digital card
[16:34] <tgm4883> stevie_man, IDK, sorry
[16:35] <tgm4883> I haven't dealt with a PVR card or 0.24 in probably 5  years
[16:35] <stevie_man> tgm4883: no problem. I was going to use it as the analog portion of my hybrid card doesn't seem to scan any actual analog channels
[18:09] <superm1> stevie_man: might be a permissions thing
[18:10] <superm1> check permissions on /dev/video*
[18:10] <superm1> and see if whatever permissions it has you can actually use from the user you're running mythtv-setup as
[18:10] <superm1> and more importantly that the mythtv daemon user has those permissions too
[18:11] <stevie_man> superm1: hmmm not sure what I did but now video0 and 24 are no longer listed when I do a ls /dev
[18:11] <superm1> reboot and they should be created by udev if the card is working and drivers load
[18:12] <stevie_man> superm1: I'll give that a try right now
[18:15] <stevie_man> superm1:Same permissions that video1 has which is a working card in Myth
[18:16] <superm1> stevie_man: look it up with 'getfacl'
[18:16] <superm1> see if they're the same with that
[18:16] <stevie_man> superm1: I think I noticed a few messages on bootup about ivtv0 which I believe is the 150 card. Do you have any idea which log I should check for bootup messages?
[18:20] <superm1>  /var/log/syslog
[18:20] <superm1> or the command dmesg
[18:26] <stevie_man> superm1: Thanks, found what I was looking for looks like I'm missing some firmware? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6342681/ (line 59)?
[19:01] <superm1> stevie_man: http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Firmware
[19:01] <superm1> that should get you what you need
[19:01] <stevie_man> So I found the firmware file and the card is noticed by mythtv-setup now
[19:01] <superm1> i could have sworn we had that part of the linux-firmware-nonfree package at some point, but maybe it got dropped
[19:02] <superm1> good :)
[19:02] <stevie_man> superm1: thanks
[19:02] <superm1> sure
[19:02] <stevie_man> superm1: I have a new problem. The channel scan takes about 20 seconds, doesn't go above 5%, locks on every channel, and finds no channels
[19:03] <superm1> stevie_man: check in that same syslog for the driver mentioning anything about this
[19:03] <superm1> or in the terminal mythtv-setup is running in
[19:03] <stevie_man> superm1: It's a scan for analog channels if that makes any difference
[19:38] <stevie_man> superm1: Apparently the analog scan doesn't work in myth .24 but I can manually add the channels and they are just fine
[19:38] <superm1> oh weird
[19:39] <superm1> why not upgrade to a newer release?
[20:01] <stevie_man> superm1: I haven't got around to it, plus I'm on Debian so it's a PITA
[20:01] <stevie_man> superm1: ALso apparent;y the 150 isn't supported in .25+
