Re: tv card newbie prob

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




Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I'll try it tonight and see what happens.

My tv card is also shown as Chronos Video Shuttle II. That confused me when i first installed it. But FlyVideo & Chronos shuttle are listed as same in the Cardlist of bttv documentation, so i understood it's not the problem. Then i thought it was sth about my Intel 810e graphic controller chipset, but you say it's only about weak configuration..

So let me know if i'm wrong :

I'll insert the following two lines to modules.conf _before_ the stuff yast inserts :

options tuner=5
post-install bttv /sbin/modprobe "-k " tuner


Then i'll start xavtv, with which i couldn't succeed to use before, so i'll have to RTFM..

And then i'll use KWinTv again to search for channels.

And won't i need to rmmod & insmod anything after editing modules.conf?


I've been searching help for this last two weeks, but now i think i'm in the right place.

Thanks !

well, i've owned a flyvideoII-card, using it with suse 8.0.
i inserted manually in /etc/modules.conf:
options tuner=5
post-install bttv /sbin/modprobe "-k " tuner
(inserted before the yast-generated-videocardpart begins)
the card had been detected as Chronos Video Shuttle II
i'm in germany, pal-system. perhaps you have to set the tuner in a simliar
way, because i suffered your problem also....
ah, and then i started xawtv once before starting kwintv, after that doing the
frequency-scan ... - i don't know why, but kwintv needed that procedure!

hope, it helps...
joerg, berlin
