Hi, All. 

Got another issue here.  My friends myth machine is using FC1 and the 
Avermedia m179 card.  For some reason all that is captured is hash from 
the tuner input when I cat /dev/video0 > temp.mpg. I can capture video 
from the RCA or S-Video inputs with no problems.

One strange thing I've noticed is that when I try to adjust the channel 
with the ptune.pl script it seg faults:

# /sbin/usr/lib/ivtv/ptune.pl 8
Ch.8: 181250 2900
Segmentation fault

But it does change the frequecy and still i get hash.

This is the first time I've tried using the m179 card. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Doug
