Pinnacle PCTV Pro — Video for Linux

Hello,

It's me again - this time with a pinnacle pctv pro card. I have tried anumber of things to get this working. Firstly, with a 2.4.20-rc1 thecard is not automatically detected - the card is picked up as a type 39(PCTV Rave IIRC) whereas it probably ought to be a type 52, if Iunderstand correctly. Secondly tuner type is 4 (no tuner). Manuallysetting the tuner type (bttv.tuner=33) gives no satisfaction. With apatch I found(http://giga.cps.unizar.es/~magallon/linux/kernel/2.4.20-rc1-jam1/75-bttv-0.7.100.bz2)the card is still picked up as a 39 but the tuner is correctly detected.Using xawtv, however, never allows me to watch TV. Basically while thecard is not tuned in the "snow" is correctly displayed, but when tunedin i get sound ok but simply get a solid blue picture. Fine tuningalters nothing until progressively the card is tuned out from thestation at which point the "snow" returns... Manually selectingbttv.card=52 doesn't appear to have any affect, it behaves the same aswith its auto-probed type=39. Is this normal?

Sorry to bother you again with all this, but anyone has any pointers onthis I'd be greatful.

TIA

Philip
