winfast 2000 pro video card


Hi all

Has anyone got this tv capture card and managed to get it working properly (Leadtek)

Currently I can tune in to stations broadcast but the tuner part of the card doesnt work

Also seems the colors are mixed up ie red is blue blue is red etc and picture is very hazy(not to do with the signal) output from dvd is also reversed in colors

what output can I grab to post to help try to solve this prob?

currently running 2.7.11.7 kernel slack 10.1

All help will be welcomed

Try looking under /var/log to see if there is any output when trying to run the tv tuner or DVD, and also, I've noticed that you are running a developmental kernel which could also be a main cause, try going back to the default slack10.1, or if you insist on a newer kernel, use the 2.6.x series. Kernels with odd numbers , such as 2.3 2.5 2.7 , and so on, are not considered stable kernels, they are for those who wish to contribute to the kernel and also trace bugs and stuff like that.
