Hello, I am trying to use my Pinnacle PC-TV card under Suse9.0, but i suspect a problem with the v4l drivers. I have a picture and sound, however the channel-scanning / channel tuning does not work. Kwintv seems to be scanning the whole frequency band but is only able to find 4 or 5 channels. These channels occur multiple times, this is a driver problem because xawtv and motv show the same behaviour !. so my programms show up in the program list with all different frequencies but it is a repeated list of about 4/5 programs. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem ? is there a fix ? Thanx Grtz Dries Pruimboom -- <End of message>

Could it have something to do with the 'broadcast region' ? i have tried 'all frequencies' 'usa' and 'europe settings' no luck !! Did you do a clean install of 9.0 or an update from 8.2, in 8.2 all works well !

I hae a different card so cannot comment re yours. However, I suspect that you may not have completed the configuration of the card during the installation and did not select the correct TUNER. Suggest that you read the how-to re bttv and get the correct tuner number for your card. This number can be manually inserted/edited in the file /etc/modules. Look almost at the very end for an entry - I quote mine as an example - options bttv card=34 radio=1 tuner=5 . Cheers. -- Wagner's music is really not as bad as it sounds.
