bt878 alone is not sufficient. What is the brand name of the card. my modules.conf file is as follows # I2C module options alias char-major-89 i2c-dev options i2c-core i2c_debug=1 options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1 alias char-major-81 bttv options bttv card=50 fieldnr=1 gbuffers=2 options tuner debug=1 type=5 pal=b against card thenumber should correspond to the number in bttv docs. For my pixelview play tv pak it is 50. second my initial lines of .xawtv is as follows. [global] ratio = 4:3 freqtab = europe-west pixsize = 128 x 96 pixcols = 1 jpeg-quality = 75 keypad-ntsc = no keypad-partial = yes osd = yes # [Station name] # capture = overlay | grabdisplay | on | off # input = Television | Composite1 | S-Video | ... # norm = PAL | NTSC | SECAM | ... # channel = # # fine = # (-128..+127) # key = keysym | modifier+keysym # color = # # bright = # # hue = # # contrast = # [defaults] norm = pal input = television capture = over color = 49% contrast = 42% I hope with this as guide try for your card. -- L.V.Gandhi 203, Soundaryalahari Apartments, Lawsons Bay colony, Visakhapatnam, 530017 MECON, 5th Floor, RTC Complex, Visakhapatnam AP 530020 INDIA [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] linux user No.205042 ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
