Hi: I'm running MythTV 0.21 under CentOS 5, all updated from ATrpms etc.
The DVB-T card is 'AVerTV DVB-T Super 007', which worked out-of-the-box
after I had used the get_dvb_fimware script packaged in kernel-docs.
Manual extraction, as mentioned in the wiki, didn't give a usable file.
I have a second identical card which I would like to add, but with it in
place booting stops with a blank screen soon after the udev stage. That
reports a malformed kmdl, but with one card this is presumably corrected
after the firmware load. I don't see any jumpers on the card.
I also have a Medion 7134 card in place; I intend to use its SVHS input
but at present it isn't much used. I mention it because all the devices
include an saa7134.
My apologies if this is a well-known effect, but I don't recollect
seeing it mentioned and would like to get it fixed. Thanks in advance.
