Pinnacle TV card has poor picture, any card of better quality?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I just installed a Pinnacle Studio PCTV Pro and the picture quality is not very good
with my cable-tv feed. Poor color and  flicker. Some stations look better
than others (but not  the quality of the average color TV). Most stations are good
quality black and white, except for the annoying flicker.

Iam using bttv-0.7.89, xawtv-3.68, XFree-4.2 and have tried all the card picture
adjustments and insmod options with the card detected as #39. I use card #52 or
#39 and pll=1 (pll switches off after check) with no difference in picture.
The tuner is type=17 Philips NTSC_M (MK2).

Does this indicate a faulty card ? Is there some other adjustment i can try? 
Or are there better quality tuners i can buy?
