Drivers for Pinnacle PCTV TV card on Redhat 9

tolis · 11-22-2003, 11:40 PM

I am using Pinnacle PCTV tv card (PCI) on Redhat 9. It also has a serial remote control. Does anybody know where to find drivers for this card? Also, is there any application to use in order to watch tv on Redhat? If this isnt too much, please give me exact URLs to find the downloads and some installation tips as well... THANX in advance!

driver : bttv (included in your RH9 distro )
tool : xawtv ( for TV ) and radio ( if you have FM radio on the PCTV card ).

I also have a PCTV (Pro) card and it was detected by RH9 ... no problem.
The FM radio still only gives mono sound though.... should be stereo.

i have xawtv (it was in the redhat 9 package). I tried to use it but the window could open. i also typed xawtv in the console, xawtv still couldnt run and this message was displayed: cannot convert string "-*ledfixed-medium-r-semicondensed--39-*" to type fontstruct
segmentation fault

Whats Wrong?

"Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-semicondensed--39-*" to type FontStruct

Would anybody help us out here?

Thanx in advance.
