Hi,
Run "dmesg" in the shell prompt and see whether the tuner and
bttv
driver modules are loaded first. If u'r tv tuner card is
"PixelView
PlayTV Pro" then u should load the bttv driver module as
follows.
modprobe bttv card=37 audiomux=1.
There is no doubt in tuner type = 5. Try changing the card number
from
the card list.
"/usr/src/linux-2.4.18-14/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/CARDLIST".
Confirm that u have connected the audio output the Tv Tuner card
to
the line in of the sound card.
All the best.
With Regards,
S.Suriya Mohan.

okay. i tried setting the audiomux option, but still no dice
there.
i'm
still not sure if i'm using the right options, at the moment,
i've
got
card=70 set (listed in CARDLIST as
card=70 - Prolink Pixelview PV-BT878P+ (Rev.4C,8E)
)
and i've tried tuner's type=3, 5, 38 and 24, which are the only
ones
that seem accurate, but i still don't get any kind of audio
output
from
the output jack.
I'm still not sure if i've got card= or type= correct, either, or
if
i'm
possibly missing a module (i've got tvmixer, bttv, tuner,
videodev, a
few i2c modules, etc loaded.)
can anyone offer anything else i might be
missing/forgetting/getting
wrong?
thanks
