Has anyone been succesful in getting xawtv and/or mythtv to work with an Asus TV FM card? I can't get mine to work, even though tvtime works just fine.

Xawtv simply gives me a blue screen. Here's my .xawtv file:

Code:
[global]
freqtab = us-cable
mixer = CD
keypad-ntsc = on
 
[defaults]
input = Television
norm = ntsc


When trying to watch live TV in mythtv results in the following output to the console:

Code:
2004-02-12 06:10:55 mythfrontend version: 0.14.20040123-1 www.mythtv.org

Some relevant info:

- I'm using gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.2
- I'm using ALSA
- NForce2 motherboard with built-in video
- TV card line-out is hooked up to CD input on audio card
- CD input is unmuted in ALSA
- I've tried "v4lctl volume 100%" and "v4lctl volume mute off"


Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have xawtv running just fine as well as tvtime but myth is still not working at all.

Will post my config later when back at my pc.

Ps mine is on Pal in NZ
And xawtv works better than the windows version that comes with the card. (had to laugh at that)
