Hi Peter,<br><br>I'm glad you found a solution. Myth can deal with cards with multiple tuners - I have a Hauppauge DVB-T-500 and that has 1 input and two tuners. I guess it depends more on the driver than anything else though, right?<br>
<br>Could you not write a startup script to automate those commands? I don't know enough about udev to be able to answer your question...<br><br>Karl<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2008/6/16 Peter Childs <<a href="mailto:peterachilds@gmail.com">peterachilds@gmail.com</a>>:<br>

</div>Not sure if this message got lost, also not sure where. Anyway after a<br>
lot more poking around on the internet, Discovered a patch for v4l<br>
which meant recompile v4l from source.<br>
<br>
I'm now running Mythbuntu 64bit with a patched version of v4l (must<br>
take a note of where I got the patch from!)<br>
<br>
This patch creates two dvb frontends in the same adapter folder, which<br>
work fine in kaffine but not in myth. Ie both tuners turn up in<br>
/dev/dvb/adapter0, first one ending in 0 (thats the satelite one) and<br>
second ending in 1 (thats the Terrestrial one) eg<br>
/dev/dvd/adapter0/demux1<br>
<br>
In Myth it works if I first hmm<br>
<br>
mkdir /dev/dvb/adapter1<br>
ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/demux0<br>
ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/dvr0<br>
ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/net1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/net1<br>
ln -s /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0<br>
<br>
Myth can then be restarted and works. (So long as you don't try and<br>
use the satellite tune at the same time (Don't have a sat so don't<br>
care)<br>
<br>
How do I tell udev to do this automatically. I think this is strictly<br>
a bug in Myth that it can't cope with dvb cards with multiple<br>
frontends (dvb frontends not to be confused with Myth frontends they<br>
are completely different)<br>
<br>
Oh its a HVR3000 tri-tuner card is that helps<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
