Hi Robert,
I think most of the people having problems with the saa7134 right now
have bought the 'Aldi'-card, which has been on sale last week for an
excellent price.
The problem seems to be (Gerd mentioned it in a previous email) that
this card does not have an eprom and therefore the id can't be read from
the card. Gerd said that he will try to provide a new release later
today, which should have fixed it.
As I have bought this card too, I'll just wait for the next release.

Hi Everyone,
Sorry I've been a bit quiet lately - I haven't had much time (or luck!)
trying new stuff recently.
I've never had any of the sound issues were talking about now, so I
can't help there, and since my FV3K doesn't have a FM tuner it probably
simplifies things.
What versions are people running these days? I'm still running
linux-2.4.19-pre1-ac1 as my most stable setup, with the 0.14 (I think)
saa7134 - quite old :)
I've had issues with it, where sometimes (sometimes fairly soon after
boot, or sometimes a few days later...) the video just blacks out, but
the audio still works when you change to a channel. Only a reset (warm
or cold I think) would fix it.
I've tried with newer versions (saa7134-20020405 with a 19-pre4 kernel)
but if anything it only got worse - sometimes not working right from
the module install, and not neccessarily working after a reboot (can't
remember if I tried a cold boot).
Another strange one I experience occasionally is xawtv losing the
picture when I try and fine tune the channel - quitting and restart
xawtv fixes this.
I'm just wondering if anyone has seen any of these, or otherwise asking
what other info about them is required to make them into a useful bug
report, and checking what current setup I should be testing with.
Regards,
Robert
