(This list, the mythtv list, and searching LIRC archives.) I'm running a 2.6.25 kernel and v4l-dvb sources pulled tonight. As a side note, the saa5249 driver with this drop does not compile for me. I don't remember from previous attempts if it's needed or not. Google hasn't helped me determine this. I also tried Andy Walls' tree a few weeks back, but for some reason it didn't integrate properly with my source tree, and though it compiled, it didn't install any modules. Incidentally, this system also has a bttv card installed, which I'm currently using for video capture. I hope to replace it with a pair of HVR-1600s. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- As of now, I can get modules loading: Module Size Used by mxl5005s 36676 1 s5h1409 9092 1 cs5345 3676 0 cx18 100160 1 dvb_core 79296 1 cx18 ivtv 142756 0 cx2341x 12548 2 cx18,ivtv it87 21648 0 hwmon_vid 3136 1 it87 ... tuner_simple 15504 1 tuner_types 13952 1 tuner_simple ... bttv 168532 0 videodev 35008 4 cx18,ivtv,tuner,bttv v4l1_compat 14788 1 videodev firmware_class 9344 3 cx18,ivtv,bttv ... ir_common 41220 1 bttv compat_ioctl32 1152 3 cx18,ivtv,bttv i2c_algo_bit 6404 3 cx18,ivtv,bttv v4l2_common 12736 6 cs5345,cx18,ivtv,cx2341x,tuner,bttv videobuf_dma_sg 13892 1 bttv videobuf_core 18308 2 bttv,videobuf_dma_sg k8temp 5312 0 btcx_risc 4744 1 bttv tveeprom 12292 3 cx18,ivtv,bttv snd_bt87x 14500 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When I try "mplayer /dev/video1" it suggests I try a few options.

Try some of the lavdopts, e.g. -vfm ffmpeg -lavdopts lowres=1:fast:skiploopfilter=all. - Broken file - Try various combinations of -nobps -ni -forceidx -mc 0. - Slow media (NFS/SMB mounts, DVD, VCD etc) - Try -cache 8192. - Are you using -cache to play a non-interleaved AVI file? - Try -nocache.

(Quit) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I would truly appreciate any suggestions or instructions for getting this beast working. When it's fully in service I plan to put it on svideo behind a Comcast set-top box, using the IR blaster. But I know that's another ongoing story, just like cx18. I see today on LKML that they merged bidi LIRC for practically everything but the HVR-1600.
