[Bug 717717] Re: V4L support can't be enabled on 2.6.38+

 

I added the test2 ppa and downloaded -- apt-show-versions tells me I'm on:
mythtv/natty uptodate 2:0.24.0+fixes.20110508.7f99d0f-0ubuntu0mythbuntu3

...I rebooted for good measure.

When coming back up I exited the frontend, went to mythtv-setup and
looked, and I still saw the "ERROR," in the capture card config for the
HD-PVR.

Then I started the frontend back up and tried watching live TV, the
backend still gives me a "format_to_mode" error. The frontend logs also
have a lot of errors once live TV has started about "sps_id out of
range" and "non-existing PPS" and "non-existing SPS" being referenced
(these were there before the upgrade from the test2 ppa by the way).

I've attached the latest backend and frontend logs for your review. I
figure that's the best way for you to know what's relevant and what's
not without me cluttering up the ticket too bad.

Again, I think in terms of me having a functional setup, overall things
are working except LiveTV changing, so hopefully from the logs you can
determine whether or not that is a separate issue.

Please let me know how else I can help.

Title:
  V4L support can't be enabled on 2.6.38+

Status in MythTV:
  Confirmed
Status in “mythtv” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mythtv

  My capture card has been disabled since Myth isn't built with V4L.  My
  previous version installed roughly two weeks ago had it.

  Perhaps libv4l-dev needs to be a build-dep?

  V4L card configured on video device /dev/video0, 
  but MythTV was not compiled with V4L support. 

  Recompile MythTV with V4L support or remove the card 
  from the configuration and restart MythTV.
