Ok, I'm almost ready to give up on this :) I have a Hauppuage WinTV-Go-PVR card. ivtv-detect gives the following: driver: bttv-0.9.16 card: BT878 video (Hauppauge (bt878)), bus info PCI:0000:02:09.0 /dev/v4l/vbi0: VBI encoding (links: /dev/vbi, /dev/vbi0) /dev/v4l/video0: YUV encoding (links: /dev/video0) But when I start VDR with -Ppvrinput I get: pvrinput: 17:51:40 no PVR device found My channels.conf has: TVONT:55250:I0:C:0:301:300:305:A1:1:0:0:0 Global:61250:I0:C:0:301:300:305:A1:1:0:0:0 Any suggestions on what I can do?
