I am running Ubuntu 8.04 with mythtv fixes .21. The card is found as an anolog V4l capture card by mythtv but the Mpeg-2 encoder part isnt found. Dmesg says that the card type is unknown and to add it to the modeprobe.d options file, but I am unsure witch card to choose, I have tried card 45 which loads it as device video3 ( I have to manually enter the video device number in mythtv backend to make it show the probed info) but when I switch to this tuner on a frontend it just sits on a black screen for a few minutes then returns to the mythtv menu. I can use Mplayer from the command line using mplayer -vo xv /dev/video3 the Mplayer window opens but all I get is colored snow. In case it matters my other cards that work with mythtv are a Hauppauge PVR 350 and an ATI TV Wonder dvb card. any help with this would be appreciated.
