Here are my symptoms:
Go to MythTV frontend from KDE. Select Watch TV. Screen goes black. I can hear sound. I can change channels.
If i press escape to get out sometimes it will exit Mythtv some tomes locks up and I must power off.
I configured Mythtv this way.
1.General: accepted all defaults, format = NTSC
2. Capture card: selected Mpeg2 encoder card (PVR-x50, PVR-500). Probed Info: showed my PVR-350.
3. Video source: added new source, entered my SD account info, retrieved lineups (worked)
4. Input source: connected my video source to tuner input-1
exited back to KDE and ran database update. I also ran the channel scan somewhere along the line.
I am using a Geforce FX5200, saw that it was on the supported list and I had it laying around. I am running a gateway GT5458e I got on ebay just for this purpose to play around before I spend and big money. Machine came with UBUNTU loaded and worked fine. I wiped it out when I loaded LINUXMCE from DVD 64bit version. KDE or MCE did not like the integrated graphics so I put my FX5200 card in . I tested the tuner card in my windows machine and it worked fine.
Anyone have any ideas what is wrong? Would appreciate it.
thanks..
Just thought of this one: I am using a KVM switch between my LinuxMCE machine and my windows machine. It is a trendnet TK-210. Could that be an issue? I will test removing it later today>
