Winfast TV2000XP Not Detected properly

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



This seems to be a constant problem for a while now, which seemed to affect a 
lot of people.  Xawtv included in their distribution a frequencies list for 
canada-cable for a short time (still exists, just commented out in 
Index.map).

Is there any way to fix this problem?  For those that do not know, it is very 
common that some cards that should be detected as Type=2 (Philips NTSC) are 
detected as Type=5 (Philips PAL_BG).  I've heard of my card, Leadtek Winfast 
TV2000XP and ATI TV Wonder card and possibly others that are affected by 
this.  I know it is very easy to just change your options in modules.conf or 
explicitly say type=2 on the modprobe line, but there should be a way to 
detect this automatically.

As well, i noticed in bttv-cards.c under the Winfast TV2000 section where it 
states:
 (linux-2.4.20)
line 614:
"Note: There exists another variant "Winfast 2000" with tv stereo!?"

I have this card, Leadtek Winfast TV2000XP Delue edition.  If there is 
anything i can do or anything i could provide to improve support for this 
card, let me know.

Thank you,
