Diamond PVR-550 - Inability to select tuner
|
|
I'm having trouble getting my PVR-550 to use the tuner. Everything
appears to be installed right with no obvious error messages to be
seen. I've done extensive searching and haven't seen anyone else with
this exact problem. Here's the details.
System:
Fully-updated Ubuntu 6.10
Diamond Extreme PVR-550
Using IVTV 0.7.3
Followed the HOWTO at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_IVTV_Edgy
NOTE: Comments added to illustrate my thought process.
#Modprobe runs great with no errors

# And 2 is Composite 1, as it should be. Where is this Composite 2
that stole my tuner come from?
As it is now, I cannot change my card's input to the Tuner.
--log-status continues to tell me that I have Video Signal : not
present.
I've tested the card in Windows, I've hooked it straight to the wall,
I've prayed to it in the traditional manner - nothing seems to make
the tuner kick in correctly.
Thanks a million in advance for your help, and please let me know if
you need any more information! Thanks for saving my sanity! =D
