Someone told me it was because I was using a card type the assumed an EEPROM and the VE doesn't have one. Heres what I have in my modules.conf which makes the card look a whole hell of a lot better then when I had it in my Windows machine with ATI's software(ati's software sucks). #first off the i2c stuff alias char-major-89 i2c-dev options i2c-core i2c_debug=1 options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1 # bttv stuff alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 bttv options bttv card= 64 radio=0 options tuner tuner=2 my guess is all you'll have to change is the card=64 which is the card type set for the ATI tv wonder VE, and most importantly the Tuner=2, which is the phillips NTSC tuner and is the reason i had the exact same 75% off and lack of color problem. I hope this helps, if not, "Damnit chris, You otta your element." cweb2021 _______________________________________________ Video4linux-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list
