[mythtvnz] question regarding Haupauge PVR-500 radio

Hi there

Slightly OT, but I have a 100% working PVR-500 w.r.t MythTV (i.e TV is
great) - but just can't seem to get the radio to work. "ivtv-detect"
picks it up just fine, and "ivtv-radio -s" appears to be picking up all
the local FM frequencies, but when I try to play one via "ivtv-radio -f
XX.X" I get nothing. If I change the play command to "aplay -f cdr < %s"
I can hear static - but I just can't seem to get it to work properly.
Actually, I've managed to get audio on a couple of frequencies - but
it's staticy TV audio - not radio. ivtv-radio says it's playing
/dev/video24 - instead of /dev/radio - but I get a 'resource busy' error
if I try to play that. Anyone got any ideas what's amiss?

This is under CentOS5, ivtv-0.10.6-132.el5. I've even tried it under
2.6.26.3 with no change.

Thanks

Jason
