I have a Spirit scp 1000 tv tuner card (see www.spiritmodems.com.au) and have tried so far without success to get it running on Debian unstable or Mandrake 9.1. I have found a couple of references on the net to this model working but the parameters used with the bttv driver by these people do not work for me, (possibly because of updated components on the card?). The tuner used is an LG TPI 8PBSB12P, which is a model not shown in the bttv Cardlist, though presumably it is an updated version of a model which does appear. The card uses a Connexant Fusion 878A. I have tried a number of combinations but all result in XAWTV scanning all channels but not finding any signal. I got frustrated enough to actually test the card on a machine running XP, and it performs flawlessly. Any ideas are most welcome. regards, Darryl
