Re: [mythtv-users] .17 on fc3-only stays on one channel, despite changing!

[Scott Minneman]

Try running the utility I linked to in my last response.  It runs 
through the entire available tuner list, one at a time, so you can check 
if each one works.  It requires xawtv, so emerge that if you haven't 
already.

Speaking of xawtv, what happens when you run that?  Can you change 
channels?  (If you can, and xawtv works correctly, then the problem is 
not your bttv driver, it's Myth)

I had the same problem for a while.  Turned out the
bttv driver wasn't 
detecting my 2 WinTV Go card's tuners correctly.

I figured this out by running dmesg.  Scroll up
until you see lines 
similar to the following:

bttv0: Hauppauge eeprom: model=29440, tuner=? (-1),
radio=no
bttv0: using tuner=9
Note that on the first line, it's failing to detect
a tuner properly.  
To fix this, in the file
/etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 (I run 
Gentoo on a 2.6 kernel, your distro/kernel might be
different), I added 
the line

bttv tuner=9,9
This loads the bttv driver at startup, and tells it
that both cards use 
tuner 9.

To figure out what tuner you have, you can go to 
http://www.mind.lu/~Eyg/ftvco/ and download the
utility.

Hope this helps.

This just started a few days ago, but for some
     

reason,
   

mythtv will only show channel 52 on livetv or
recordings, despite changing the channel(the number
     

at
   

the top saying it's channel 47 or 58 or whatever,
     

and
   

menu at the bottom  saying the different channel
     

name
   

and show).
Help?
