pixelview playing TV Pro

[Husse]

I have found that making a small module called bttv may help
First check so there is no bttv already
Add it to /etc/modules so it gets started

Code: Select all

echo “bttv” | sudo echo -a /etc/modules

Now create bttv

Code: Select all

echo "# i2c
alias char-major-89 i2c-devb
options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
# bttv
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 bttv
# My TV Card
options bttv card=37 tuner=30 radio=1 pll=1 adc_crush=0" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/bttv

(Don't mind that you see a > before each new line before the command is executed - it's a new line character)
It's the options part of this that is important and these are for a Pixelview PlayTV Pro with bt878

I have never played with TV cards and they have always seemed a bit strange to me in their inner workings
