[mythtv-users] PVR-250 no longer captures

[Steve]

I had it working, honest :) Except for some ghosting in my captures I
thought I was home free.  But now my PVR-250 no longer does a test capture,
and gives me:

#cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg
cat: /dev/video0: Input/output error

Syslog tells me:

May 28 23:05:00 pvr kernel: ivtv: init error 1. Code -16
May 28 23:05:01 pvr kernel: ivtv: init error 2. Code -16

The last steps I took were to run this to fix the ghosting and reboot:

./test_ioctl  --set-codec-params=dnr_mode=0,dnr_temporal=0

Rebooted several times and still can't get a simple cat /dev/video0
capture.  This is more likely a ivtv thing, but I thought I would try here
first and see if anyone has run into it.  I'm running Mandrake 9.1, CVS'd
mythtv, ivtv with Hauppauge drive pvr250_16_21062.exe.  Any ideas?

Thanks to the developers for all their efforts.
