Winfast TV 2000 XP will not work in Mandrake 10.1
 

The card does work in WinXp. I use KDETV as it came with the operating system. No picture just static, no sound. The card IS detected: here is what it says:

KdeTv BT878 video
(Winfast TV 2000 XP)

Here's what I get with dmsg:

Linux video capture interface: v1.00
bttv: driver version 0.9.15 loaded
bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture
bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

I'm way out of my league with this one. Willing to learn however.

Also any suggestions for TV viewers other than KDETV.

Can someone help with this?

Thank You! :confused:

Try modprobe -r bttv and modpobe -r tuner then modprobe bttv card=34 tuner=2 all as root then see if you have the card detected properly with the right tuner loaded. If this works then I think you need a line like this in your /etc/modules for the bttv module to be loaded with the correct options on boot in Mandriva.
