Hmm well that's not good... as I live in the USA so standard NTSC.
And as a typical American I didn't even think that it would default to
something else! ;)
I'm not using any module options when loading the ivtv module
(module.conf snip)
# cat /etc/modprobe.conf
alias eth0 forcedeth
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_nv
alias snd-card-0 snd-intel8x0
options snd-card-0 index=0
options snd-intel8x0 index=0
remove snd-intel8x0 { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ;
}; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-intel8x0
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 ohci-hcd
# ivtv (PVR-500MCE)
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-81-1 ivtv
is there a module option to force the type? I did some quick checks on the
ivtvdriver.org site and didn't see anything. I'll start googling.
Thanks for the quick response!
Best regards,
Berant
