Mike,
Been an interesting few months playing with pvrusb2.  Got it working on
32 bit Ubuntu 8.04, 8.1, 9.04.  Video0 shows up, can select tuner inputs, video works,
sound works, life was great.  Fooled with Myth for a while mostly up and
going but decided to buy Sage TV.  Got it working, able to switch
between HVR-1950 and Homeun tuner all is good.   Decided to upgrade to
64 bit ( work is moving to 64 bit linux and I am on a amd chip and it
seemed over all faster ).  Same drill got things going again, tried vlc
/dev/video0 and video and sound work great.  Installed SageTV ( they
need to run on 32 bit java but easy enough to download a 32 bit jvm and
run it ).  SageTV comes up able to configure HD-Homerun ... then the
issue.  /dev/video0 and adapter0 both appear but if I choose adapter0 I
get the choice to choose a Digital Tuner. Digital side must be grabbing the card
If I choose video0 however... no choices and SageTV won't continue.  Tried MythTV same thing no
choices under video0.  Checked out crtl_input and sure enough cur_val is
set to dvb.  the default is set to 0.  Check 32 bit linux cur_val  = 
television and default 4096.  Can't set default its readonly?   Try to
set cur_val to television .. SageTV still does not show devices.  Check
enum and its got the right values.  Ok I am Stumped.

Any ideas on things I can try to get the devices to show.

Mike...
