I have just gotten my HVR 1600 working, well sortof, and I'm running
into some problems. I have used the latest driver from linuxtv.org.
The driver and firmware load just fine and dmesg report nothing which
would indicate an error. When I try and view the tv feed with mplayer
tv:// the following is the output:
$ mplayer tv://
MPlayer SVN-r29463-4.3.2 (C) 2000-2009 MPlayer Team
Playing tv://.
TV file format detected.
Selected driver: v4l2

comment: first try, more to come ;-)

buffers failed: Invalid argument v4l2: 0 frames successfully processed,
0 frames dropped.
Exiting... (End of file)
When I do cat /dev/video0 > test.mpg then play the file there is no
audio and the video is not clear. I can barely tell what channel it is
but it is in black and white and is very badly distorted.
My linux distro is Gentoo with the latest, 2.6.30-gentoo-r4, kernel.
Can anyone help with this problem? I just want to be able to watch tv
from my linux box, no fancy mythtv or recording.
