I upped the timeout to max and it still fails

after a lot of fiddling , it is working

I get 100% lock , if I exit and start from the main menu it works , but while in livetv and change channels , it does this timeout
I guess I could really up the timeout time
I was hoping for jpoet to answer but that has not happen

I am using jpoet's Colossus2 code and it is working except when in livetv and I change the channel it gets to %100 sig and will timeout
if I come from the main menu and start with the guide it works. any one seen this happen to them ?
or any other external capture setup ?

sorry maybe not

have to do more testing , also I now have 2 HDHR's , one HDPVR (1212) , one Colossus2
I was having so much trouble with the Colossus2's , I added my HDPVR back

I have 2 of these cards mostly working , my only issues are changing channels in livetv , it times out and drops back to the menu if I start from the menu that works , another problem is sometime when you start from the menu and try livetv it will work but no sound so I exit out and try again and so...

I got this to work again ( I was wrong)

the Colossus 2 plugs into pci-e slot , but looks like a usb , pretty sure it has it own PCI-E to USB bridge chip

I have 2 of them . it did the same with just one

I wonder if this could be related to my issue

[68709.622807] usb 5-1: reset high-speed USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd

when ever the hauppauge2 is run
even with hauppauge2 -l

no , HDPvr2's (Colossus2) external

in .29 I had the livetv setup so that it would go to my first tuner/recorder
and the last with a higher number which meant that selecting livetv meant it would start with the 1st one
I would have the last set to do recordings

30 now seems to ignore that setting

I am v30 now and using / testing 2 Colossus2's they work , even with livetv , but with some issues like when I change channels in livetv , it will go back to the menu , I watch recordings , but my wife watches nothing but livetv any settings I need to check in mythtv-setup ? I am getting in syslog u...

interesting , since there is no more Silicon Dust PTV , I removed the external recorders for that and now yours now works in livetv
