Hi !
I have a pctv sat card and i try to use with the kernel 2.4.21.
I successfully add the "i2c-if-0.9.4.patch" patch to the kernel, and complie without any probelem.
The module loading is succesfull.

but what the next step? How to watching the tv ?
after i load the driver i'm not hear a "click" from the card:) why? how to configure the channels ? and how to watht the channels with mplayer or other software ?
Please help me !
What I do to watch TV using my pctv sat is to use dvbstream as main streaming application and to pipe to either xine or mplayer. To simplify this I have written a little script watch_dvb that can be found here:
http://steinsoft.net/index.php?site=Misc/downloads
Please make sure to edit the location of your .szap config file. (CHANNELS_CONF). Use the script like this:
./watch_dvb bbc mplayer (or watch_dvb bbc xine)
Have fun, -Andr�.
