I am a new Linux user and am running Fedora 3. I've been pretty happy with the ease of setting up my sound and video cards. I reached a snag with my tv card however. I can't get TVTime to work correctly. I haven't tried other tv software yet, but that may be a path that I should try. Tv Time looks like a really cool tv tuner program so I'd be happy to stick with it. The tuner card is a MSI TV@anywhere Master card. Here is the output from lspci:

In tvtime the channels appear to be off a little bit. I've tried tuning them but have had no luck. I went on the tvtime page and saw some info about forcing the card to recognize NTSC signals (instead of PAL). I tried to follow the info in the tvtime FAQ (unable to link due to forum rules), but I think it may not have worked because my card is using the cx88xx or cx8800 drivers (and not the bttv ones). I'm not really sure. Any links/help would be appreciated.

The drivers included with the 2.6 kernel don't seem to work properly with the cx88xx chipsets. I posted a link here to the driver that worked for me.

Jsutton,
I finally had some time to try what you suggested. I downloaded the cx drivers from the link you gave and also the kernel source. I then tried what you suggested. The following is what i get when I try to follow the build instructions on the cx drivers website:

Now this is after I installed the source rpm (as described on the Fedora website). I believe the KDIR is set to the right location and has the right files. It appears this is a function version problem though. Any ideas?

How can I tell what version of cx dirvers were included in the Fedora packaging?

I remember having a problem similar to this. I'll post back when I remember what the solution was.
