Re: Problems with mt20xx & SAA7174HL

[Robert Johannes <rjohanne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Simon,

Did you ever get your personal cinema FX5200 card working under linux for
video capturing with xawtv?  I'm working on getting mine to work, but
without much luck, and I seem to be stuck where you were in January.  I'm
using rivatv 0.8.6 version, without any luck.

thanks for any help.

xawtv just gives me a screen full of pink noise and tvtime says no signal.
Windows works fine.  I have to add options tuner type=33 to modprobe.conf
to
get this far:

[root@living root]# cat /proc/driver/rivatv
nVidia Chip:    GeForce FX 5200
Model:          XFX Personal Cinema GeForce 5200 FX
Architecture:   NV30 (NV32)

                FB      [0xf0000000-0xf7ffffff]

VideoDecoder:   Philips SAA7174HL

And then we have
[root@living root]# xawtv -hwscan
This is xawtv-3.93, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.8.1-24mdk)
looking for available devices

This is xawtv-3.93, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.8.1-24mdk)
