-!! When using Mythtv and a Hauppauge WinTV-PVR350, I can't watch Live TV - the card locks hard.

-dmesg will show some errors regarding
[DMA
] - I don't have a copy
here unfortunately
. I was using the .1.9 version of the drivers from ivtv.sourceforge.net. To fix this, I followed the instructions at http://membres.lycos.fr/badzzzz/ - this details using the .1.9 driver set, a 'standard' set of patches commonly applied to .1.9, and another one-line patch to fix the DMA issue. It also refers to using a custom ivtv framebuffer X driver, which seems to improve things a lot.

-There are probably other ways of doing this, and there are other patches linked from http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=PatchesHowTo which seem to cover the DMA issue as well as 2.6 kernel issues.

-!! PAL support for Hauppauge WinTV-PVR350

-alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
-options ivtv mpg_buffers=90 ivtv_pal=1 tuner=4

-# composite output
-options saa7127 enable_output=1 output_select=0 pal=1
-options tuner type=28 pal=1# PAL tuner
-options msp3400 once=1 simple=1
-add below ivtv msp3400 saa7115 saa7127 tuner
-add above ivtv lirc_dev lirc_i2c
-add above ivtv ivtv-fb
-</verbatim>

-The [IVTV TV-out PAL page| http://ivtv.writeme.ch/tiki-index.php?page=TvOutPal] covers this in more detail
