Hello all, I've just stuck a saa7134 based TVcard in my desktop box. After taking in a few hours to find the needed module ...... I eventually found it in the multimedia-kernel. Lo, it found my channels again. :-)
Nice extra is that my choppy video problem disappeared using the mm-kernel, so that's good. Considering I was just a hop away from kicking Mandy off my desktop in favour of Ubuntu, just for that reason. Downer is I can't get sound from the card. Sound apps work fine using the built-in soundcard whereas the TV card has to use itself as soundcard. >From what I've derived from googling around is that v4l2 creates (and needs) >it's own sound device but I can't seem to find it. I think I need to get it (the saa7164 card) added as a sound device i.e. need it to get loaded ....... but I don't know which module to look for or where to put it. Anybody got a similar card with sound working? If so, how is it shown in "lsmod"? That way I can add it to /etc/modprobe.preload as I had to do with the saa7134 module. I tried adding: "option saa7134 oss=1" to there but that didn't do much good except mute "kmix". Would "alsa=1" be an option? -- Good luck, HarM. ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
