[mythtv-users] Firewire Problems, was working

[Allan Wilson]

Ok I gave it a shot and didn't have much luck. I applied the patch to the
latest code from svn and that part worked find. I then ran mythtv-setup and
set up the extra cable box using p2p and sa3250. I then started the backend
then the frontend and below is what I got:

2006-09-21 18:28:24.530 MythSocket(8305140:-1): writeStringList: Error,
socket went unconnected.

When I went to watching live tv I just got a black screen. I also took out
the external channel changer command because I noticed that the channel was
changing to something in the 873 instead of 783. Once I took the channel
changer command out it just stopped changing channels. Then I changed it to
the sa4250 cable box and channel changing started working properly. As a
last resort I tried broadcast and I had no luck but that could have been
because of my plugctl commands. The entire time everything worked good using
test-mpeg2. The girlfriend ran me off to watch some of her shows but I
should be able to start testing again in a couple of hours if you want me to
try anything new.
