[mythtv-users] Need Help configuring Capture Card/Video Device

[Kent Rigby]

There is an RPM, I installed it, when I boot the machine I get  a message that 
the module could not loaded because the build failed.  But when do an lsmod I 
see the module in the output.

I think I found the PVR card under /dev/dri/card0.  MythTV seems to be happy 
with that device, but I still can't watch tv.  The log says:
Channel(/dev/dri/card0) Error: SetInputAndFormat(0, NTSC) 
			while setting format (v4l v1)
			eno: Permission denied (13)

2006-06-17 21:08:53.735 TVRec(1): Changing from WatchingLiveTV to None

I set the default channel to 15, which is valid.

I appreciate the help.  Any suggestions you can give would be greatly 
appreciated.
