[mythtv-users] PVR350 TV-OUT (PAL) not Working (probably X-Server
Config?)

Hi all,
after several (estimated 100's) tries I'd like to get some professional advice
on my problems, which is using the PVR350s TV-Out for MythTV
What have I done? I installed the system based on a c't (German Computer
Magazine) Distribution and I'm currently using a PVR350 and a Nexus DVB-S
Capture Card. But before I'd like to configure the DVB-S I'd like to get my
PVR350 TV-OUT working, but it won't.
So what I#ve done up to now is:
I followed the great thread "My first attempt at PVR-350 TV-out "howto" (very
LONG)" to get my TV_Out working.
I've seen the color pattern clearly on the screen. So far so good. So in my
opinion there is no problem with the card or the modules. But when I start
the X-Server I get a "running" picture (like one might have had in former
computer times when resolution was wrong) So I can guess that the X - Server
is running, becaus I know the look from the desktop, but I cannot get a clear
picture.
This even occurs somehow with the X-Server not started (when manually
inserting the ivtv-fb)
Relevant ? part of my modules.conf
options ivtv ivtv_debug=1 ivtv_pal=1 tuner=5
options tuner type=5 pal=1
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
add below msp3400 tuner
add below saa7115 msp3400
add below ivtv saa7115
#add test_image=1 to get a test picture
#change out_select for non composite
#get options by calling modinfo on module file
options saa7127 enable_output=1 output_select=0 pal=1
#uncomment the following lines to use your pvr350 for output
add above ivtv ivtv-fb
add below ivtv saa7127
So I've tried several changes to my XF86Config-4 file, but either it had no
effect or the X server wouldn't start at all.
I would really get some advise.
Thanks for reading and even more for helping.
Frank
P.S. Sorry for the bad english, but I am a german guy.
