[mythtvnz] Sudden loss of audio - SOLVED

[Duncan Kennington]

Same here - most of the online guides that suggest all the different
no_black_magic and suchlike parameters were for versions of ivtv way older
than the current generation.  Just modprobing it with no parameters picks
both my 150s up no problem now.

When I first got my PVR-150 I put all sorts of parameters for the module
with very mixed results (all the parameters were mentioned in various
howtos). However just oading the module with no parameters and allowing auto
detection to do its thing solved all my problems.
