Ubuntu Multimedia :: TV Tuner Not Working In 9.10 But Is Recognised
Mar 29, 2010
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....

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.

I am trying to get a tv tuner type GT-P5100 to work in Kubuntu but I have no luck. The type of tv tunner is: [URL] I checked [URL] and there is no page for this kind of tuner. I've compiled [URL] and it worked, but in tvtime I get no image. Is there another way to test if my tv tuner is working? I have no entry in /dev/dvb A relevant part of dmesg is:

I've looked around and can't find a working tuner for Ubuntu, online ones don't work and the ones I've downloaded I can't seem to get to pick up a sound.

I have an almost noname tv tuner card: Vivanco PCI EASY BG/DK. Lspci says it is Philips Semiconductors SAA7134/SAA7135HL Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 01). Dmesg detected it as a LifeView FlyVIDEO3000. I tried to configure it making the file at /etc/modprobe.d with the options card=2 tuner=5 (I found that also in dmesg). Still TvTime can't find any channels. I also tried using xawtv and scantv, but only managed to find two channels using ntsc somehow, but I have PAL BG/DK. (the card itself works on Windows, but it took me a while to configure the channels properly)

I've recently put Ubuntu 11.04 onto an unused server with the plan of converting it into just a standard desktop PC, however it was lacking some of the basic components. After a struggle I managed to get an old Nvidia graphics card to work nicely and I bought a ?2 USB sound card from ebay and I've had no luck whatsoever in even getting it recognised.When plugged into windows the information given about the device is 'Generic USB Audio'I've restarted after each time I've tried to fix the issue and I've been mucking around a bit with ALSA following instructions from every forum post I could find but with no success

The problem I have is that when trying to convert the files to another format or open them with a video editing program I get messages such as "Invalid data found when processing input" I used a FireFox plug-in called "video downloadhelper" to save the video files to my local ubuntu PC and this saved them as *.wmv files. If I double click the file name then the Totem Mplayer opens up and plays the video OK. The one strange thing is that the file sizes seem to be quite small for what I would expect, for example, a 1 minute video clip is showing with a file size of 145 bytes (not kb or mb but bytes) but they do play OK with the Totem MPlayer.
I have tried converting them to AVI using both FFMpeg and WinFF and both give the same message about "Invalid data found when processing input". Also, if I copy the files to a windows PC and try to open them up with a video editing program such as Sony Vegas this also fails to recognise the files. Finally, if I try to play the files on a windows PC with VLC Player, or GOM Player or Windows Media Player none of them can play the files.

I have a Samsung TV that can be and is connected via DLNA with my XP machines wirelessly. There is NO WAY I can make it see my Ubuntu machine though.I have the 10.04 and I have tried almost all the available programs for this OS.Name it and I have tried it: Mediatomb,ushare, PS3MediaServer and others that I cannot recall right now.These programs are installed with no errors and they look like they run correctly, their web interfaces work fine but that's all.None of them has been ever found by the TV,-but it can see the native Samsung program PC Share runnning on the XPs.What's the problem with my Ubuntu system and it cannot be recognised by the TV?It's not that it won't play this or that file. It's that it won't see the server AT ALL.

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

I 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:
Quote:
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 saa7134
options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
options saa7134 card=99 tuner=59 secam=dk
options tuner secam=d
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 want to use my laptop for watching cable TV and as a DVR. I need to buy a TV tuner card for the laptop. What I want to know is what brands and cards work with Ubuntu 10.04? Are they easy to install or so I need to be a CLI geek to make it work?

I have 2 tv cards that I have successfully configured to work in linux.But this 3rd one I bought recently seems to have a problem. The card is not autodetcted (that's really not the problem) but when I try to load saa7134 with:sudo modprobe saa7134 card=xx tuner=xx, it loads whatever card I indicate but the tuner never changes. This is part of the output of dmesg:
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.15 loaded
saa7134 0000:02:04.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16

My tv tuners works under vlc only, my webcam only works in vlc and xaw tv, I tried skype and it didn't detect either one. However in Puppy Linux both of these worked flawlessly, they were both detected in skype. here's v4l-info.
Code:
### v4l2 device info [/dev/video0] ###
general info
VIDIOC_QUERYCAP[code]....
There is also a /dev/video2 but when I try v4l-info /dev/video2 the terminal hangs and I have to close it out. Also I've tried.
Code:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libv4l/v4l2convert.so skype
It didn't work. Also gstreamer-properties doesn't start. I don't know if it's related or not.The first was that I couldn't even get it to boot off of the cd in order to install it, I had to use a usb.

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 an ATI All-In-Wonder 9000 AGP4x video card with TV tuner function. I following the description on [URL] where I found a how-to for enabling TV tuner. The tuner works in xawtv and avview but without sound. I plugged the cable in from tuner to my sound card and try to increase volume and/or enable mute on/off but nothing to hear. The sound card line-in input works correctly, because when I attaching my MP3 player I hear sound over the sound card. I think maybe have a register accessing/writing error which handle the TV Tuner sound chips to turn on/off. (the tuner works correctly in Windows XP). I'm using Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS with x86_64 (amd64) actually. The lspci output for Video Card:

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:

After 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:
Code:
00:0a.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7130 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 01)
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:
mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:adevice=hw.0,1:amode=1:audiorate=48000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=PAL
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:
Code:
[ 1320.568603] saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.16 loaded
[ 1320.568697] saa7130[0]: found at 0000:00:0a.0, rev: 1, irq: 18, latency: 32, mmio: 0xdffff800
[ 1320.568737] saa7130[0]: subsystem: 1131:0000, board: LifeView FlyVIDEO3000 [card=2,insmod option]
[code]...
i'm not be able to tune any stations using tvtime and xawtv. if channel is not selected in windows OS for more then 1 hour then tvtime displays message no signal, same message in tvtime-scaner (No sound).
