Hi, just purchased an ultra-cheap PCI TV Tuner, Leadtek WinFast TV2000 XP RM and couldn't make it to work. There were only 17 matches when you search the freebsd-multimedia archive for "winfast"... been reading it over and over again and I couldn't get any closer to my goal. The box: FreeBSD 6.2-PRERELEASE Sysctl: hw.bt848.slow_msp_audio: -1 hw.bt848.format: 0 hw.bt848.reverse_mute: -1 hw.bt848.tuner: 15 hw.bt848.card: 14 I tried using kbtv: Hardware Info: Bktr module: Loaded Capture chip: BrookTree 878 Card name: Leadtek Winfast TV 2000 <sysctl:14> -huh!? I thought it was 15 says bktr (4) Tuner type: LG TP18PSB12P PAL <sysctl:15> - as according to this: http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-multimedia/2005-August/002521.html I'm leaving here in the Philippines The tv tuner's surface doesn't really say anything about it's tuner type. It just have a sticker with "Winfast TV2000 XP RM" and "NTSC" selected on the checkbox.. The chipset is definitely a Conexant Fusion 878. I tried xawtv... played with different values to no avail. $xawtv -hwscan This is xawtv-3.95, running on FreeBSD/i386 (6.2-PRERELEASE) looking for available devices port 57-88 type : Xvideo, image scaler name : NV Video Blitter /dev/bktr0: OK [ -device /dev/bktr0 ] type : bktr flags: overlay capture tuner However, upon launching xawtv, I got these: $xawtv This is xawtv-3.95, running on FreeBSD/i386 (6.2-PRERELEASE) Warning: Cannot convert string "-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". I removed bktr_load="YES" from /boot/loader.conf, rebooted the machine sysctl were also gone it was detected as: Leadtek Winfast TV 2000, Philips FR1236 NTSC FM tuner. Perhaps you can get something from the verbose dmesg: bktr_mem: memory holder loaded pci0: driver added found-> vendor=0x8086, dev=0x27da, revid=0x01 bus=0, slot=31, func=3 class=0c-05-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=0 cmdreg=0x0001, statreg=0x0280, cachelnsz=0 (dwords) lattimer=0x00 (0 ns), mingnt=0x00 (0 ns), maxlat=0x00 (0 ns) intpin=b, irq=23 pci0:31:3: reprobing on driver added pci1: driver added found-> vendor=0x109e, dev=0x036e, revid=0x11 bus=1, slot=1, func=0 class=04-00-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=1 cmdreg=0x0006, statreg=0x0290, cachelnsz=0 (dwords) lattimer=0x40 (1920 ns), mingnt=0x10 (4000 ns), maxlat=0x28 (10000 ns) intpin=a, irq=21 powerspec 2 supports D0 D3 current D0 pci1:1:0: reprobing on driver added bktr0: <BrookTree 878> mem 0xbfffe000-0xbfffefff irq 21 at device 1.0 on pci1 bktr0: Reserved 0x1000 bytes for rid 0x10 type 3 at 0xbfffe000 ioapic0: routing intpin 21 (PCI IRQ 21) to vector 59 bktr0: [GIANT-LOCKED] brooktree0: PCI bus latency is 64. bktr0: buffer size 3555328, addr 0x1a000000 bktr0: GPIO is 0x003ff502 bktr0: subsystem 0x107d 0x6609 bktr0: Leadtek Winfast TV 2000, Philips FR1236 NTSC FM tuner. found-> vendor=0x109e, dev=0x0878, revid=0x11 bus=1, slot=1, func=1 class=04-80-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=1 cmdreg=0x0006, statreg=0x0290, cachelnsz=0 (dwords) lattimer=0x40 (1920 ns), mingnt=0x04 (1000 ns), maxlat=0xff (63750 ns) intpin=a, irq=21 powerspec 2 supports D0 D3 current D0 pci1:1:1: reprobing on driver added pci2: driver added pci3: driver added pci4: driver added found-> vendor=0x10de, dev=0x0160, revid=0xa1 bus=4, slot=0, func=0 class=03-00-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=0 cmdreg=0x0007, statreg=0x0010, cachelnsz=4 (dwords) lattimer=0x00 (0 ns), mingnt=0x00 (0 ns), maxlat=0x00 (0 ns) intpin=a, irq=16 powerspec 2 supports D0 D3 current D0 MSI supports 1 message, 64 bit pci4:0:0: reprobing on driver added tun0: bpf attached Is this some sort of like winmodem issue?? I noticed that a lot people are complaining about not making their tv tuner to work. Any idea why? Thanks
