10.1 kdetv doesn't remember channel tuning
Hi Folks, I've installed 10.1, both iso and boxed, on a number of servers without problems, except for the on-line update business, of course. Now, I've installed the boxed set on an Opteron desktop and so far have encountered only one problem with kdetv. Kdetv works when first fired up with a WinTV (haupague) tuner after a channel scan is performed (ntsc/us-cable). However, upon subsequent logins the channels loose their "tune". All scanned channels suffer the effect, which is like they are all offset from their correct carrier frequencies to the point where audio is lost and the video degraded. If another "Wizard" Channel Scan is run, they all lock in until the next time. The channel numbers and labels are remembered. Has anyone else seen this? Regards, Lew Wolfgang

I'm using a WinTV (haupague) tuner, 10.1 and gnome and all channels stay. It shouldn't any difference on TV standards. Richard

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Folks, I found the problem. The channel wizard scanned the tuner as Video4Linux2, but when kdetv started up it selected Video4Linux. I just changed the default to Video4Linux2 and the problem went away. Note that I probably messed up the default in the first place. Everything else seems solid now.
