Please note I had to remove IR from sources because Yes, that looks fine. Have you tested your card with mplayer? 1) set the channel with pvr250-setchannel 2) use something like (g)mplayer -cache 8192 /dev/cxm0 to play. > Anyhow, I tried to configure it using mythtv-setup and whatever type of > card I tried it always displayed "Failed to open". I've updated the log Do you have PVR-2xx / PVR-5xx in the card setup in mythtv-setup? First you have to have that choice, or nothing works for the PVR-250. Ok? If you have it, you should be able to setup your card by specifying /dev/cxm0 as the device. > Does it mean I have to set up channels before backend can start? Or does > it mean the card cannot be used? No, but the backend needs a valid card before it will start. As Bernhard has said, there re problems with the pvrxxx driver and MythTV > 0.22; they don't communicate very well. The pvr250 driver might or might not have the same problem, it is a bit early to tell yet. More debugging needs to be done. -- Torfinn
