Bt848 Video capture card

chrisstooss · 09-17-2005, 07:00 AM

What do I have to install or do that I would be ablo to watch tv and capture TVshows?

I have installed tvtime and it freezes my whole system. Only restart button on my machine works.
This is part of my lspci

Code:

0000:02:02.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt848 Video Capture (rev 12)

Does it work in xawtv?

hi

iam not an expert but i would like to look at the result from the following commands:

Code:

lsmod

and

Code:

lspci

ah .. what the heck post all of the result from above commands...

Hi,

try : dmesg too. Then go to terminal again and try : sensors-detect. Follow the instructions. Which TV package you have installed? KDTV is not working very good for me. I am using TVTime.

Go to the following thread:

htpp://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/answers.php?action=viewarticle&artid=278
maybe that will help.
regards

I hope this helps you all.

And about riba43s link. How can I found out which card is mine. Lspci gives me chip only. I think

riba43 · 09-18-2005, 06:36 AM

try:

1. sensors-detect - follow the instructions (hope it wors with your distro)

2. dmesg : your TV card is not autodetected. ( bttv0: using: *** UNKNOWN/GENERIC *** [card=0,autodetected])
so try sensors-detect and use TVTime.

And by the way, which TV card you have? (Haupauge, AVER TV , Lifeviev or....??? ).

chrisstooss · 09-18-2005, 07:06 AM

I don-t know which card I have

sasho · 09-18-2005, 08:58 AM

Do you dual boot windows? If you do , you can see what kind of card you have, most probably it is autodetected properly.

riba43 · 09-18-2005, 09:16 AM

Could you open your box and see what is written on the TV card??

riba43 · 09-18-2005, 09:55 AM

Try also this to check whether you have your card installed :

Open terminal window as root, then:
1. tvtime -hwscan ( you will see whether tvtime is installed)
2. tvtime-scanner

also see if you have video4linux installed, run v4l-conf.

regards

Hello Im back

Now I found out which card do I have

mirovideo PCTV I don't know which pro or se but it doesn't matter. There are only two numbers for this card on follownig link.

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...icle&artid=278

But I don't know which tuner I have. How could I solve this one.

bayonetblaha · 02-07-2006, 02:36 PM

all you people figuring out TV cards... is there any chance at all I can watch TV on a Mandriva laptop? I have changed cards once, changed distros from Ubuntu... and can't figure it out. I am willing to change distros and card again for the chance to make it work. It worked great on windows.. haha, sad but true. Currently using Mandriva 06 and Hauppauge WinTV USB2 (not the PVR version), if anyone knows how to save me a trip to fry's.

HappyTux · 02-07-2006, 02:43 PM

Well it says 1 and 11 for the cards so you would use card=1 or card=11 when loading the bttv modules along with a tuner=?? I would try with I assume the numbers for the PAL ones. A line to try as root would look something like this modprobe bttv card=1 tuner=?? after having used rmmod bttv tuner to have unloaded the modules. Just keep repeating until if you have installed scantv package using it you hear some sound when it goes through the scan then you know you have hopoefully loaded the proper card=, tuner= combination then try xawtv or the tv viewer of your choice and see if you have video.

Some Google'ing indicates that your card has a temic tuner, so when supplying the arguments for the bttv module also give tuner=#, where # equals the appropriate tuner number:

Code:

 type=n          type of the tuner chip. n as follows:
                                0: Temic PAL tuner
                                1: Philips PAL_I tuner
                                2: Philips NTSC tuner
                                3: Philips SECAM tuner
                                4: no tuner
                                5: Philips PAL tuner
                                6: Temic NTSC tuner
                                7: Temic PAL tuner
                                *8: Alps TSBH1 NTSC tuner
                                *9: Alps TSBE1 PAL tuner

So in your case its either 0, 6 or 7

chrisstooss · 04-14-2006, 06:45 AM

Ok now I have another problem with this card.

I found out that modprobe bttv card=1 is the right choice. And that tuner is automaticaly set. But now I don't know how to load module at start up.

I wrote in my /etc/modules :

Code:

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

lp
psmouse
bttv card=1

But card doesn't load at boot
