Hi,

What is exactly you're problem with the pvr-500 mce.

Deffcon

I get crappy video and audio is pretty bad.  Is there anyway to fix this?  And what are you using to get the data for the channels? aslo if i run the front tend from kde desktop works fine.  But if i run it through linuxmce it locks up.

Installation issues / Re: No live TV with PVR-500

By default rc.local is not executed at startup. All you have to do is add a symlink in /etc/rc2.d/ to point to /etc/init.d/rc.local. Make sure it starts with an S and has a number prior to myth starting up. Personally, I named it S19rc.local. But that's because I mount some shares in rc.local and I want to be sure everything that uses them isn't started up until rc.local is started.

In short executing the following command will get rc.local to start at boot.

Code: [Select]

ln -s /etc/init.d/rc.local /etc/rc2.d/S19rc.local

How do acutally do this.  I am new i need some step by step directions if possible
Thanks

Installation issues / PVR 500

OK on the page of tested good hardware.  The pvr 500 should work.  The problem is i an know very very little about linux.  I just did the install off the dvd.  It find the pvr 500 i select the turner in the setup wizard and it asked what is hooked up to it.  But i have no choices.  On the page it ask you to  Alt-Ctrl-2 then type   
   apt-get install ivtv-firmware
   rmmod ivtv
   modprobe ivtv
I dont understand were to type this in
Thanks
