I'm having trouble getting the tuner part of an Aimslab VHX video capture
card to work. The card works fine when the machine is booted into windows
and receives some 34 channels from the cable feed plugged into it.
However, under FreeBSD it only tunes two channels, and they don't look
right (picture is mostly ok but barely any color). The tuner parts on the
card are all Philips chips. The bktr driver does not probe the card
correctly:
bktr0: <BrookTree 848A> mem 0x40100000-0x40100fff irq 11 at device 11.0 on
pci1
bktr0: Pinnacle/Miro TV, Temic NTSC tuner.
I've used the sysctl knobs to set the card type (13) and the two Philips
tuners (4 and 9), but this doesn't seem to change anything. Switching
between antenna and cable modes in fxtv also doesn't have any effect.
Below is the output from fxtv -debug startup (no sound under fbsd for the
maestro3 chipset and no direct video for the i810 chipset but I'm not
worried about those problems here). Any help or similar experiences with
this card would be appreciated. For completeness I also tried under linux
and had similar results; if the card was tuned under windows and then
booted into linux the channel comes in OK but the linux-side apps aren't
able to change the tuner settings. Composite video works fine in all
cases.
