flarefox Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 I looked in the system and it comes up as this: Identification Vendor: ?Internext Compression Inc Description: ?iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder Media class: ?MULTIMEDIA_VIDEO Connection Bus: ?PCI Bus PCI #: ?0 PCI device #: ?5 PCI function #: ?0 Vendor ID: ?17476 Device ID: ?22 Sub vendor ID: ?112 Sub device ID: ?16393 Misc Module: ?unknown Should it not say it is manufactured by Hauppauge?

flarefox Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 The 'drivers' folder, not the 'utils' folder :) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hahaha, oops. When I do it in the drivers folder, now the video device is completely gone. I do a make reload and the whole video and video 4 linux devices and folders are gone! I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devries Posted April 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Try a different ivtv driver. If no /dev/video0 gets created the module (=driver) isn't working correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flarefox Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Try a different ivtv driver. If no /dev/video0 gets created the module (=driver) isn't working correctly. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That and that I wasn't loading enough of the modules was exactly the problem! It was loading the drivers that come with mandrake rather than the ones I built. Thanks for all the help! It works well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ahdiddum Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Hi, I can't load ivtv modules using MDK 10.1. I would like to add the following config (to use a WinTV PVR350 with Microtune tuner) alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 ivtv options ivtv tda9887=0 post-install ivtv ivtv_init in /etc/modules.conf. When MDK 10.1 boots, it doesnt load this file. It's rather the same with /etc/modprobe.preload, /etc/modprobe.conf, /etc/modules and /etc/modprobe.devfs. If I manually do a modprobe it will work. A script under /etc/rc.d/rc.local could be a hugly but working hack, but I'm sure there's something better to do. My last attempt : a "generate-modprobe.conf" that worked very well...in fact, /etc/modprobe.conf is still the same after the reboot. Any idea ? Thanks a lot...

devries Posted April 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Add 'ivtv' to modprobe.preload and modules and 'options ivtv tda9887=0 (and you probably will need tuner=whatever number your tuner is}' to modprobe.conf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ahdiddum Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 (edited) Add 'ivtv' to modprobe.preload and modules and 'options ivtv tda9887=0 (and you probably will need tuner=whatever number your tuner is}' to modprobe.conf. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks you devries, you're really the one :D Nobody on the net but you was able to give me this hint ! Now the module is loaded without a ugly "etc/rc.d/rc.local" hack. I still can't change channels because of this damn microtune 992 tuner though. But that's another trouble....however many thanks.
