Udo Wolter:
|Today I bought a TV card name "Typhoon TV Tuner". It has the BT848 chip
|on board and with winsuck it works. After adding bktr0 to my kernel
|the card will get loaded like this:
|
|bktr0 <BrookTree 848> rev 18 int a irq 12 on pci0:11:0
|Miro TV, Temic NTSC tuner.
|
|The first thing is, that it should be a PAL tuner, so why does it say
|it's NTSC (under winsuck it works as a PAL tuner).
...
|DETECTED CAPTURE CARD(S) [DRIVER PROBES]:
| bktr0 <BrookTree 848> rev 18 int a irq 12 on pci0:11:0
| Miro TV, Temic NTSC tuner.
It does sound like it's being detected wrong, which is probably the source
of your problems. Try overriding the tuner type to a PAL version:
# sysctl -a | grep bt848
hw.bt848.card: -1
hw.bt848.tuner: -1
hw.bt848.reverse_mute: -1
hw.bt848.format: -1
# sysctl -w hw.bt848.tuner=2
#define TEMIC_PAL 2
#define PHILIPS_PAL 5
#define TEMIC_PALI 7
#define PHILIPS_PALI 8
#define PHILIPS_FR1216_PAL 10
#define PHILIPS_FR1236_SECAM 11
If no luck, I'd try the latest driver. Might as well upgrad fxtv at the
same time:
