Re: [eug-lug]TV input cards
Actually, for KBob's needs, the audio should be coming off the satellite box so tuner and sound capabilities of the TV card are of no concern. All that is actually needed is a capture card that works under linux with S-video or composite inputs and audio will be fed to the line-in on the sound card with a $3 adapter from Radio Hack. --- Ben Barrett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Oh yes I forgot to mention, my card and I think many of the tv tuners have a line out cord, which is meant to patch into [the line-in on] an existing sound card. __ Do you Yahoo!?

I think the 848 chipsets are full video in and out with tv tuner; the 878 work with a secondary sound chip, which often has an FM audio tuner. It works well, although it can be a little noisy when switching channels... but that might just be the software. (I'm not sure about the 848/849 and 878/879 differences off-hand, either) Actually the tuner is a seperate component, but whatever. =) The 879s do have extra support for FM tuners if your tuner provides the feature. Basically the bttv chipsets handle sound and NTSC/PAL video signals. What is supported and how varies by implementation and the exact chipset used. Example, I've never seen an 848 card which supported seperate chroma/luma inputs (S-Video), so I am not sure that the bt848 does have seperate inputs. Of course, you could still composite the two signals with a few cents worth of isolating components, but it's not true S-Video in that case. Any card with an S-Video port has had a later chipset which I know has seperate chroma and luma pins. I'd read that Hauppauge's PVR cards, which do mpeg-2 encoding in hardware, had some limitation, possibly that they *only* output the mpeg2 stream, as opposed to writing the video itself through the pci bus. I want to find out more about this one; the PVR-250 cards are getting a good bit cheaper now. I think they can support framebuffer output, but the drivers for anything else are kinda weak. Don't trust me on that though. Bob, I think your needs might have been well-covered already, but if I may digress and over-extend the thread: An old school-buddy had told me how he got satellite tv on linux going; it was well-enough developed set of tools, using some older hardware. I'm not sure what cards handle that, but there's even an HDTV tuner pci card out there, which is possibly the cheapest way to get HDTV. If the HDTV card is a bttv-class chipset, color me interested. We even have MacOS X support for those things (though it's a bit beta-quality at the moment..) ___ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug

That wouldn't make much sense given the evolving standards for both. Aside from the PAL vs. NTSC vs. SECAM issue, video currently comes in these major flavors: - Composite (single RCA plug, usually yellow) - S-Video (mini-DIN connector, seperate chroma and luma) - Component video - YCrCb as 3 RCA plugs - RGB (sync on green) - 3 RCA plugs (some pro gear uses BNC) - VGA connector - RGBHV (seperate sync) - 5 RCA plugs (some pro gear uses BNC) - VGA connector These are from worst to best, acutally. The most flexible is the five signal RGB cable since it it gives equal colorspace to the three primary light colors and offers seperate sync for various resolutions and timings. This is basically VGA/SVGA. Older fixed frequency gear (and anything designed to work with today's televisions is fixed frequency) can get by just fine without any vsync signal and depending only on the hsync which is multiplexed into the green wire. Adapters to use old Sun monitors with normal video cards do this multiplexing, and adapters to use multisync monitors on old Suns extract the hsync and use some intelligence to create a vsync. I digress.. YCrCb is interesting because it applies the technique used by broadcast television. When color TVs came out, BW had been established and they wanted compatibility. So, they left the BW signal alone and added the colorburst signal BW TVs didn't even see. Basically, color TVs treat the BW signal as brightness and then use a signal for the difference between the brightness and the red, and another the brightness and the blue. What's left once you subtract these out is green. This leaves you with high green resolution but pretty low red/blue. The Y (Luma) signal contains the brightness and sync, the other two contain the color differences. S-Video is what happens when you combine the two color information lines together into one signal and put the result in a single connector. It's not quite as good as component video, but it's still pretty good. Most say it's good enough. Four pins are used--two signal and two ground. No idea why they adopted a single connector for both, but anyone who remembers the old Commadore 64 color monitor has seen S-Video done as two seperately shielded RCA plugs. Someone just decided to make one connector out of it along the way. Composite is the two S-Video signals mixed, giving you one signal. Short of RF modulation, it's the worst thing you can do to the signal. If you haven't guessed yet, Composite happened when someone decided to not bother to modulate and demodulate the TV signal. S-Video happened when someone decided not to mix Luma and Chroma. YCrCb composite happened when someone else decided to output the signal without mixing the Chroma channels together. RGB simply was what all of these things were before we tried to make them sane for both BW and color. THANKFULLY, Audio is more sane. Sortof. - Analog - Signal level - Line level (what you're used to) - Mic level (weaker, you won't use it, usually needs preamp) - Connector madness - XLR (you won't use this) - RCA (1-6 depending on channels) - Headphone type - Size - 1/4 inch (dying except for mono for musical instruments) - 35 mm (probably only stereo anymore for computers/headphones) - Bizarre sizes and 3+ channels for camcorders and other weirdness - Channels - Mono - Stereo (seperate or combined connector) - Rat's nest of (almost always) RCA plugs for 3, 4, 4.1, 5.1, etc - Digital - Signal conduit - Coaxial copper (RCA plug) - plastic fibre (TOSlink) - Signal type - Stereo PCM - AC3 (basically multi-channel MPEG audio) Currently, non-embarassing AV gear accepts S-Video and stereo RCA. S-Video plus TOSlink patch cables are becoming more common, but I think those won't last because DVD players are making people start to demand component video over S-Video more and more often. TOSlink will win over coax because it's cooler (not because it matters since the signal is already digital) and YCrCb vs. RGB is still up in the air. Both have a strong push behind them. Although DVDs happen to be encoded in the YCrCb format, the playback devices quite often render them to an RGB framebuffer before re-encoding them for display. This is amusingly wasteful, but lossless. ;) So, what are some reasonably good ways to determine how many milliseconds out of sync one's audio and video are? When you figure this out, talk to the people making DVDs. Note that the beginning of Fellowship of the Ring was out of sync in the theatrical DVD. Most weren't terribly annoyed and those who don't work with digital AV didn't even notice. ;) ___ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL

Hauppauge. Probably one of the best supported brands under linux. S-Video in and Composite can be done with an adapater into the S-Video.

hop-hog cards are the best, like the early lucent wifi cards. Partly branding, but also simply a good product.

Also, various particular software (like mythtv, which spearheaded the development of support for the wintv pvr-250 and -350 models under linux AFAIK) will list supported hardware of course. For the record, I've been using a program called xawdecode (or xawdecode2) which is much better than xawtv, but very similar of course. Anyone else making modern use of Athena Widgets out there ?? = ) regards all, Ben If you're not looking for a tuner but just video-in, you have a lot more options availabel to you, as numerous video cards now have that capability and might already be supported. I know the ATI AIW (all in wonder) series has had support for linux for a long time now, although I have yet to get my hands on one of those. I hear really good things about their RF remote!
