On his page http://www.openthought.org/blosxom.cgi/2004/12/14 Eric tells us:

The Hauppauge input driver should not be set to V4L, it should be set to "mpeg2 (Hauppauge 250 and 350)". After some searching, I finally found a message on a mailing list mentioning this.


Is this why I don't get any output from "cat /dev/video0"? It points to /dev/video/v4l/video0 it is activated in my kernel.
What else can I use then? :?:

Thanks for any help or background, this tv-stuff is really confusing.

It does work, i'd recommend looking at the mythtv documentation
http://www.mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html

You also need ivtv to get proper output
