I have a Compro VideoMate TV PVR/FM In Ubuntu 14.04 x64 and would like to use it with MythTV. This worked OK in 12.04 x64 but not in 14.04 x64 I have checked this [deleted] question but there is no answer on this yet.

I got this working with MythTV by running commands..

sudo modprobe -vr saa7134_dvb
sudo modprobe -vr saa7134_alsa
sudo modprobe -vr saa7134
sudo modprobe -v saa7134 card=40

then in mythtv > capture card setup I selected Analog capture card and type Video device: /dev/video0 and type VBI device: /dev/vbi0

then in Video source setup > Video souce name: RF and Listings grabber: No grabber

then in Input connections > [V4L:/dev/vodeo0] (Television) I set the display name and Video source to RF.

then in channel editor I selected RF and clicked Channel Scan.

It found NO channels but I know that my distribution system is on 65 so I deleted all the channels under RF except 65 by selecting the one I wanted to delete then pressing D.

Once this was done I renamed the channel number to 800 so that it doesn't conflict with the DVB-T and went back in to Input connections > [V4L:/dev/vodeo0] (Television) and set the Starting channel to 800.

In the front end I had to type the channel number 800 and press enter because it doesn't show in the channel list.
