I am trying to get a Pinnacle 800e USB ATSC digital TV tuner working in 64-bit Lucid. I followed the 800e wiki for extracting the firmware file that needs to be in /lib/firmware, so dmesg output recognizes it without errors just like shown in the wiki. No idea what modules it should use, but seem to be loaded:

I want to watch tv with my usb tv tuner Pinnacle pctv hybrid pro on Fedora 15 64bit.The best i could do is watch analog tv without sound at all ! or watching digital tv but without the ability to change channels ! i need to press the stop button and then choose my channel and hit play again. If i tried to change chanell it stuck . [URL] Its a quality tvtuner and i would like to use it.PS1: I was completely crazy testing the Fedora 15 64bit , gnome UI was so fantastic, fedora was so fast not like the ubuntu fatpig. Im so decided to format my harddisk and install only fedora.

And my system would not pick up a signal at all or show any channels after scanning. But, just as proof that the system detects the device, my Virtualbox shows this device (it's name and the fact that it is a tv tuner) as one of the available USB devices when it is plugged in. (I am not saying I want to use the usb stick with Virtualbox but only that the computer recognizes it and knows what it is and can even name it correctly).
I have found and never gotten even the slightest response from the usb stick. There is never any picture or channels scanned. This is true whether I am using tvtime or kaffeine or me tv.
Both tvtime and me tv say that only dvb is supported when I try to scan for channels.
So, anyway, using the link that I gave above, I got to the point where I downloaded the drivers from here:
[URL]
and what I got was a tarball. So I extracted it to my desktop and then changed directories in a terminal to the folder that was on my desktop and then I ran make and then I ran make install. And then I rebooted.
Well... still nothing. Neither Kaffeine nor tvtime nor me tv will detect any channels nor will any picture appear and they all say that I am lacking some kind of dvb support/driver whatever.
I'm using natty. is there any way to get a Pinnacle DVC 101 to capture video from composite source on Ubuntu Natty? it seems that when new releases break functionality they often are never fixed.
I'm also unaware of a simple GUI application to use in order to capture the video. It would need start and stop features.
Does th Pinnacle 300i PCTV works under ubuntu (and mythbuntu)?

[code]...
This problem can occur during capture from an analog capture card if CPU utilization exceeds 95 percent. To avoid this problem, configure virtual memory to be "System managed" by following these steps:
1. Choose Start -> Control Panel.
2. Open the System control panel.
3. Click the Advanced tab.
4. Click the Advanced tab.
5. In the Virtual memory box, click Change.
6. Select System managed size, and click Set.
7. Click OK.

[Code]....
Ubuntu version: Karmic Koala (ubuntu 9.10)I've been fiddling arround quite some time with this card. So far i established the following:
1. Card is supported by drivers already available in kernel (v4l, v4l(2)).
2. Card is recognised by Skype as well as by gstreamer. However gstreamer gives me mostly greeen screen when i test it. no propper picture. both found it on video1 (video0 is webcam).
3. I know it is supposed to work well in Linux URL...instructions are for fedora here.
4. there are quite a few tutorial for this card online (even ubuntu), however they are for older version and most of them consist of getting new drivers installed (which are already included with Karmic).
TV Time - blank screen - it is trying to get video from video0 device, which is webcam. i can not set it to use video1 instead as when i click in the menu to change input nothing happens.VLC player - i select use device and set it to V4l or PVR. in both cases the programme itself switches to video0 and turns on my webcam. Nothing else happens. I also installed iv-tv including all necessary libraries and dependancies - as suggested as solution to similar model of card. Didn't change anyhting. it's basically the only thing that is not working yet (most other things i already solved-sort of). I am also interested why the programmes keep switching automaticly to video0 for input when i clearly state to them to use video1?!If this can not be solved can anyone suggest another cheap TV tunner that "just works" in Ubuntu (including remote control)?! I have a big monitor and i think i could use it as TV instead of getting a new TV....
Does anyone know of any way to get this thing to work on Karmic? Just to be able to watch TV, not even to record? I can't seem to get it to recognize it. lsusb just shows:
Code: Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0438:b003 Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. but it doesn't show up in dev/video0 or anything like that, and I don't know of a program which will play it. I don't really have the money to go out and buy another tv tuner, so I really would like to get this one to work, or else I'm going to have to switch to windows
No progress viewing input yet in Linux. I installed MythTV, VLC, and no luck yet with vids or sound.I had video input with Windows Movie Maker, and Media Player Classic (3rd party), but no sound in either.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Compro Videomate M1F TV tuner card (internal PCI). After installing ubuntu 10.10 I noticed my card was not recognized and tvtime showed no image no sound. After a Google search, I found differente threads and I tried the following: I've created saa1734.conf in directory /etc/modprobe.d (with administrative rights) with these lines:

After that, I rebooted the computer and after starting tvtime, I can see all the tv channels (great) but I have No SOUND and I don't know how to deal with that and couldn't find a solution.I know there is a problem with OSS not being supported anymore or something like that and I am a bit confused.

I have a sabrent tv tuner card (tv-pcirc). I want to use it in vlc but don't know how to change from the composite source to the tuner source and from there don't know how to change channels (is there a program that generates channels.conf for analog channels?) It would also like to know how to record a certain channel for a certain period via the telnet interface. Another thing I would like to know is how to set up the remote with it, because the audio is very soft and I would like to raise the voume.
My card is using card=42 tuner=43.

I have recently purchased a Kaiser Baas tuner card with a model number of KBA01010, it does not matter which package I use non of them can see the tuner card. I have tried kaffine and myTV, but ultimately I would like to get this device working with my mythtv installation.I have followed alot of threads suggesting updated firmware etc but still no luck. By the output from the dmesg I am guessing the firware on the card is different from past cards.
View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter much effort I got mythtv to work on my HP TouchSmart. Then I decided to install it on my laptop before I forgot all the troubleshooting tricks.So I unplugged my Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 850 from the TouchSmart and plugged it in the laptop. I was successful getting mythtv running on the laptop so I returned the tv tuner to the TouchSmart.Much to my dismay, mythtv no longer worked on the TouchSmart. I moved the tuner to the laptop again to see if mythtv worked. It didn't. Apparently, the act of unplugging the tuner and plugging it back in broke something.
For usb hard drives and cameras, an icon appears on the desktop that allows me to right click and choose to safely remove the device. I had no idea that unplugging a usb device without such an icon would cause any problems.Initially, the problem seemed to be with mythtv as I was able to successfully execute the following commands:
Code:
scan -x0 /usr/share/dvb/atsc/us-ATSC-center-frequencies-8VSB
mplayer dvb://WTVF-HD

I have INTEX TV tuner card. i'm trying to configure in ubuntu for tvtime. The card has the saa7130 or saa7134 philipse chipset.
lspci | grep -i saa713
output:

after the installation, the card was detected and /dev/video0 was created but dmesg indicated that the card is not among the ones listed as supported and since card did not have EEPROM, the card was not up and running right away.i have edited /etc/modprobe.d/tvcard.conf and added options saa7134 card=3 tuner=14
Code:
$sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/tvcard.conf
added:
Code:
options saa7134 card=3 tuner=14
Then CTRL+X to exit
still it did not work. tvtime would always say no signal and tvtime-scanner never picked up any channels. then i followed instruction given by rsramkee [URL]. edited saa7134-cards.c and deployed new kernel linux-2.6.36.2 with changes.i rebooted machine to windows selected one channel in tv tuner software of windows, again rebooted machine to ubuntu (i have dual boot windows XP and ubuntu 2.6.35.23). tvtime able display video of channel that is selected in windows OS (No sound), but not be able to tune any other stations.In mplayer able display video of channel that is selected in windows OS with sound.
command:
Code:

i followed instruction given by http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Saa7134-alsa to set up sound. loading the loopback module with the command:
$ pactl load-module module-loopback
Now tvtime able display video of channel that is selected in windows OS with sound, but not be able to tune any other stations. Not be able to tune any stations.dmesg output:
