Note, btw, that I do have extra 250 hardware and expect to have a
machine available within days on which I'll be running Ubuntu 9.10
(and possibly something even more bleeding-edge if it would help).
So if only the 250 side of the equation needs work, I could test
using that and the 350 in another machine that's still on ivtv 0.4.1.
But I only have one 350 and the machine it's in is in constant use;
I can't make any potentially-destabilizing changes to that machine
until I decommission the 350, which probably won't happen until
midyear.

[.If anyone else has a spare 350 kicking around that they'd like to
send me, I can put -that- in my test machine and do all the testing
right now. Contact me offlist if so. There are probably quite a
number of people on the main MythTV lists who now have extra 350's
gathering dust, but I'm leery of asking that population directly.]

Re: [ivtv-devel] ivtv TODO list [ In reply to ]
I'll go on-list for this.

I have the original pvr350 used to develop the video-out stuff for ivtv available. I'd love to see it get used for further ivtv development

I've gone all DVB (clearQAM and ATSC) now, so my SD stuff is not being used much.

Caveat is the pvr350 has a shot tuner (i've had several pvr-x50's do this to me over the years, not sure what the problem is). The direct video input works fine. Remote works fine.

Video out is assumed to work, but i haven't used it in like 3 years :)

Thanks for all the help over the years guys. It's been fun being a part of it.
