TVTime

Ehuwiko · 10-27-2003, 05:21 AM

I'm trying to install TVTime under Vector linux 4.0(slackware). THe application installs properly, however, it gives an error when I start TVTime, something about not being able to find "libartsc.so.0". I've searched for this, and I can't find it. I need help either getting TVTime to work or suggestions for another TV Viewer.

sounds like you need the arts-devel file installed.
Check the cd's your distro came with it should be there.

Personally if ALL you want to do is Watch TV then I'd suggest XawTV which also should come with your distro. If not then http://bytesex.org/xawtv/ is where you can get it.

What kind of tv card do you have??
That also matters greatly.

I have the arts package installed. My card is a Hauppauge WinTV, I'm not sure the exact modle, but it's just a basic PCI tv card with no FM radio. I know it works under Linux, I've gotten it working before. This is the exact error I get:

I ran debian and libartsc.so.0 through google and my suspicion is right. That file pertains to both the libarts and libarts-alsa files.
Having just the arts package won't be enough. You also need the arts library files, so I'd get the libarts files installed as well if they are not.
