I recently bought an Items-brand unit from a store in Park Square 1. It's using the Philips SAA7130 chipset which is supported in Linux. I got it to work after several config tries. MythTV, xawtv, and tvtime works on it. I'm using KUbuntu Fesity Fawn.
I'm planning to use it to digitize my video8 collections. --- mikw t. ----- Original Message ---- From: Taong Bahay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Technical Discussion List <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, June 21, 2007 9:20:05 AM Subject: [plug] TV tuner suggestion (not BTTV) I'm looking for a more up-to-date TV tuner than cards based on the common BTTV chipset. I know of sites like linuxtv.org but the problem is they list models which, except for a few like Leadtek Expert, are not available locally. Can you suggest a TV tuner with good Linux support that I can buy at Villman, PC Express or Gilmore? My main requirement is that it is more modern than the ancient BTTV chipset (for example, cx88, Saa713x). _________________________________________________ Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [email protected] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Read the Guidelines: http://linux.org.ph/lists Searchable Archives: http://archives.free.net.ph
