Please help, I had Mythtv setup with separate backend and frontend, running under Mythbuntu Hardy 8.10 had 2 nebula DigiTV cards with TDED4 tuners in the backend During play back of the recording the video would freeze, I therefore decided to install the backend and frontend on what was the frontend. and upgrade to Mythbuntu 10.04, but found when scanning for channels in Mythgbackend setup the scanner gives "scanning channel xx No Lock for channels 21 to 68 and lists the following information for each channel channel xx offset 2 -- Timed out, no signal After channel 68 has been tried the message No channels found appears. thoulght this may have been resolved in 10.10 so upgraded, deleted the partitions on the system disk an installed 10.10, am getting the same results, I came across this post and on looking at dmesg the module is bt878 verified by sudo modprobe -vr bt878 and getting message module busy
tried sudo gedit /etc/rc.local modprobe -vr bt878 sleep 10 modprobe -v bt878 no change, then increasing Signal Timeout to 3000ms Tuning Timeout to 5000ms and DVB Tuning Delay to 2000 and ran the scan again with the same result. the only difference I can see is that the module number is different bttv: driver version 0.9.17 in Hardy bttv: driver version 0.9.18 Working Mythbuntu Hardy Backend only syslog Nov 28 18:15:31 hub kernel: [ 196.562569] bttv: driver version 0.9.17 loaded Nov 28 18:15:31 hub kernel: [ 196.562582] bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture Nov 28 18:15:31 hub kernel: [ 196.562733] bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).
