I used the ivtv package from the atrpms site to install the ivtv drivers
on my CentOS 5 system. The drivers seemed to install ok but I can't
seem to find a /dev/video device. I have been reading the howto on the
ivtvdriver.org site and it mentions setting up the device with udev.
Does the udev rule get created by installing the ivtv drivers or do I
still have to figure out how to define the device to udev manually? If
so anyone have a udev definition example for a Hauppage PVR150 hanging
around?
Packages that were installed when I did yum install ivtv were:
ivtv - 1:0.10.6-131.el5.i386 - An iTVC15/16 and CX23415/16 driver
ivtv-firmware - 2:20070217-15.noarch - Firmware for the PVR
250/350/150/500 model series
ivtv-kmdl-2.6.18-8.el15 - 1:0.10.6-131.el5.i686 - IVTV kernel drivers
perl-Video-ivtv - 0.13-8.0.el5.i386 - Perl modules for ivtv support
lspci shows the device to be a Multimedia video controller: Internext
Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01)
I know the hard works because I previously had all this working under
Suse 10.2 but had some issues with Suse and have recently switched over
to CentOS 5.
Thanks,
Dan
