PVR-350 no tv out

I am running a mythtv system with a hauppauge pvr-350 and a pvr-150.  I use the tv out from the pvr-350.

I had this working, although I was getting occasional hangs for no apparent purpose, so I updated the system.  With my most recent update of the system, the tv out is no longer working.  I get audio, but no video.  Dmesg reports a number of lines with

i2c addr 0x44 not found

as part of the messages.  Not sure where to begin looking for problems; any help is appreciated.

MythTV 0.20 Removes Full PVR-350 Support

PVR-350 hardware decoding support in MythTV has ended, at least for the time being. The hardware encoding is still supported.

The developers have indicated that because nobody has stepped up to support the PVR-350 decoding functionality, the support has not been included in MythTV 0.20.

As a PVR-350 owner, what's this mean to you? The encoding portion of this card is still supported, which basically means the card now acts like a PVR-150 or PVR-250.

If you are considering getting a PVR-350 for use with MythTV, maybe you should reconsider. A good alternative would be to get a PVR-150 along with a NVIDIA graphics card. The NVIDIA cards still have supported hardware decoding (XvMC), and can be found for about $50.

At some point, if someone picks up the development of the PVR-350 decoder, the support for it may return to MythTV.
