In case anyone is confused: IMO, pointing a fiunger at the pvrxxx port at this time is _very_ premature. pvrxxx has worked since usleep fixed it a few years back (of course ther have been breakages now and then), and continues to work today. My current production MythTV backend is a machine with a PVR-500 card, running: root@kg-fil# uname -a FreeBSD kg-fil.kg4.no 6.2-STABLE FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE #20: Mon Mar 12 23:04:49 CET 2007 root@kg-fil.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FIL60 amd64 root@kg-fil# pv | grep pvr pvrxxx-20060822 = up-to-date with port root@kg-fil# pv | grep mythtv mythtv-0.20 = up-to-date with port root@kg-fil# mythbackend --version Library API version: 0.20.20060828-3 Source code version: FreeBSD Ports Collection /usr/ports/multimedia/mythtv, MythTV version 0.20 Tue Mar 13 23:10:55 CET 2007 Options compiled in: freebsd release using_v4l using_oss using_arts using_ivtv using_dbox2 using_hdhr using_ip_rec using_freebox using_live using_x11 using_xv using_xrandr using_frontend using_backend There is something wrong with the mythtv 0.21 port, I simply can't figure out why the "MPEG-2..." card type selection is missing from mythtv-setup. I have googled quite bit, but no clues so far. -- Regards, Torfinn Ingolfsen
