OK, the drivers are loaded.

Wrong devices to use if you have a Hauppauge PVR card.
That's an error from trying to invoke ME Tv.

The device to access it should be either be video0 or video1 (one of them is you webcam- most likely it is video1 if you use a usb webcam). By any chance you forgot to put yourself in the video group? What happened if you do:

,---- | mplayer /dev/video0
Bingo that got me cable channel4 with sound
| mplayer /dev/video1
That's the usb Web-Cam. Now all I have to do is get myth-tv running. Do you have a simple step by step that I can follow? I have myth-tv, setup and frontend installed as well as mysql. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
