[Bug 220448] [NEW] Tuner not recognized

 

Public bug reported:

I just installed me-tv, and I'm having trouble recognizing my tuner
card.  Upon startup I get the message "No tuner device", and the console
output:

Me TV-Message: 04/21/2008 20:14:31 - Me TV Version: 0.5.27
Me TV-Message: 04/21/2008 20:14:31 - Loading glade file '/usr/share/me-tv/glade/me-tv.glade'

Me TV-Message: Exception message: 'No tuner device'
Me TV-Message: 04/21/2008 20:14:32 - Exception in void Application::init(): No tuner device

I have a PCI-based tuner card (hauppage, but not sure what model number-- I could find out) as /dev/video0.  I've previously used it under MythTV, and can also confirm that it works with the command:
cat /dev/video0 > tmp.avi

I first tried using the me-tv package in the ubuntu repositories, but then installed version 0.5.27-2 from lamothe's ppa.
Running Hardy RC on AMD64.  I'm not sure how to get a full backtrace, but with a little help, I'd be happy to give it a try.  :)
