Hello,
I am testing MythTV 0.23.1 from ports on my main MythTV machine[1], running FreeBSD 8.1 (slightly old):
root@kg-fil# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-fil.kg4.no 8.1-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.1-PRERELEASE #4: Fri May 21 00:20:01 CEST 2010 root@kg-fil.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
root@kg-fil# portversion -v | grep mythtv
mythtv-0.23.1 = up-to-date with port
The machine has a PVR-500 card, and I am using this driver (patched to work with 8.x):
root@kg-fil# portversion -v | grep pvr
pvrxxx-09042008 < needs updating (port has 20060822_1)
The driver works with mplayer, tested like this:
pvr250-setchannel -d 0 -t 147.25
mplayer /dev/cxm0
(and the same for /dev/cxm1).
Note: I tried the updated pvr250 driver as well, but it doesn't want to detect / use the tuners of my card.
The port installed fine, but LiveTV (or anything lese to do with the PVR-500 card) isn't working.
