Re: [suse-multimedia-e] NVidia GeForce4 ti 4600 - TV-in
I stand corrected, sounds like a nice card. I see a posting to sourceforge, I suspect that will get you going. I had similar situation getting my All-In-Wonder board going, the standard frame buffers in LINUX are geared toward the more common chips like the WinTV card uses. Good luck and hang in there!

Ya it's a pretty nice card. I've got a Windows box at home too but it just seemed like a huge waste to put it on a Windows machine. Thanks for the help guys. I'll give this a try tonight and see how it goes. this
puppy. A DVI out, VGA out, S-video in, S-video-out, TV-in(rca) and TV-out(rca).
All I really want to do with it is plug in a video camera. I'm not so concerned
with the tuner aspect of it as just getting the video-in to work. But I suppose
a tuner/decoder would still be required for that.
I believe you might be trying to get TV Reception off this card, and according to their web page, I see no mention of a tuner section on the
card. Cards such as WinTV and ATI All-in Wonder cards include a TV Tuner and decoders to function as a TV Receiver.

I recently installed this card and it has been fantastic. It installed very easily and it's putting out around 400 fps in every game I've got (Q3, RtCW, a few
others) with all of the eye candy turned on and maxxed out. I also managed
to
get twinview working right off the bat with no problems so overall I'm very
pleased with this card.
The only thing I haven't figured out yet is the TV-in function. I had an old Hauppauge WinTV card on here and it worked great with XawTV. But I'm at a total loss as to how to get the TV-in working with the GeForce4. The system doesn't
seem to be detecting any TV input of any kind and NVidia and BFGtech have
absolutely
nothing in their documentation about configuring TV-in at all except that
the
capability is there.
I'm using SuSE 7.3 with kernel v2.4.16. I'm relatively dumb about working
with
kernel modules so if that has anything to do with it I don't even know where
to start. I just assumed that NVidias kernel module (1.0-4191) and GLX drivers
should be all that I need. Below are the specs for my system.
SuSE 7.3, Kernel 2.4.16 xF86 4.2 1.5 GHz AthlonXP 768mb DDR RAM VIA KT333 chipset
Any help is greatly appreciated.
