Analog tuner does not work on boot, but restarting cx8800 allows it to work

Hi DAP,

Thanks for including the attached files. Could you also include your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (or Xorg.0.log.old) from after reproducing the issue?

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` too.

[This is an automated message. Apologies if it has reached you inappropriately; please just reply to this message indicating so.]

For this Xorg.0.log, I did the following:
I ran

"mplayer tv://32 -tv device=/dev/video0:driver=v4l2:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=48000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=NTSC-M"

got black window, and noise for sound.

I stopped mythbackend, then ran

"mplayer tv://32 -tv device=/dev/video0:driver=v4l2:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=48000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=NTSC-M"

got black window and noise for sound

I ran "testscript2" which contains:

#!/bin/sh
#
# unload hdtv wonder modules
#
/sbin/modprobe -r cx8800
/sbin/modprobe -r cx88_dvb
/sbin/modprobe -r nxt200x
/usr/bin/pkill pulseaudio; /sbin/modprobe -r cx88_alsa
/sbin/modprobe -r tuner
/sbin/modprobe -r tuner_simple
/sbin/modprobe -r tuner_types
/sbin/modprobe -r tda9887
/sbin/modprobe -r tda8290
#
# reload hdtv wonder modules
#
/sbin/modprobe cx88_dvb
/sbin/modprobe cx8800 video_nr=1 vbi_nr=1
/sbin/modprobe cx88_alsa index=1

Then ran

"mplayer tv://32 -tv device=/dev/video1:driver=v4l2:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=48000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=NTSC-M"

Got a video window with video and sound to match.

I exited "MythTV Backend Setup" which restarted mythbackend

I ran mythfrontend and started liveTV. I switched to the analog TV tuner, got video for about 1 second, the picture froze for several seconds and went black.
I changed channels, I again got picture for about a second before it froze for about a second then went black.
I changed channels again, I again got picture for about a second, it froze for about a second, then started flickering.
I exited live TV, and exited mythfrontend.

I don't know if you will find this useful, but I included the mythTV front end log.

For completeness, an excerpt from MythTV Back end log
(tried and failed to upload the whole log twice before, but it aborted)

This was a problem in 9.10 and 9.04. I did not get that script until after I had upgraded to 10.04, so I did not know for sure that the hardware was functional until then, so I had not reported it.

The situation has changed a bit since I have upgraded to 10.10
I no longer need to run the script to get the card to function. I need only stop the mythTV back end, and run:
mplayer tv://32 -tv device=/dev/video0:driver=v4l2:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=48000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=NTSC-M

This does not mean that everything is working. I am unable to use "Watch TV" in MythTV with the analog tuner.
TVTime will show video, but not play sound, and only works when mythTV back end is stopped
Zapping requires I set NTSC-M-JP to get a proper picture NTSC-M gets me a noisy black and white picture, and I am located in the US. Also, Zapping does not have an option for the cable standard I am using. The one that works of the two that are available will not tune some of the channels.

So while it appears the bug I reported is fixed, the analog tuner is still unusable.
