Subject: [mythtv-users] mythfrontend not finding dev/video0..but cat does???
ok this is gettting frustrating..move past one problem..to hit another..
when attempting to goto tv in the mythfrontend I'm getting the following...
error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
error reading from: /dev/video0
read: Input/output error
what I don't get is before launching the frontend, doing
cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg
works just fine....if I do it before launching the frontend..
I can't do the cat after the frontend attempts to use /dev/video0..
(of course this error is actaully produced by the backend....not the actual frontend)
thoughts??
