|
|
I've got an old tv tuner card and it works well with tvtime.
I only have one problem. I live in England, and this requires the pal=i options for both the tda9887 and tuner modules (otherwise I get no sound)
I've added a file to /etc/modules.d called bttv which has :
options tda9887 pal=i
options tuner pal=i
in it and these are put into /etc/modprobe.conf by update-modules. However, when I reboot the modules load (not via /etc/modules.autoload.d but by the detection) but without the pal=i switch. If I do :-
rmmod bttv tuner tda9887
modprobe tda9887 pal=i
modprobe tuner pal=i
modprobe bttv
manually, then everything works fine. Can someone help me get this done automatically please ? |

I am not sure if this works, or is the "correct" answer, but you could try adding "tda9887 pal=i tuner pal=i" to your lilo/grub kernel boot command. |

i get no sound as well when i boot the kernel, but if i remove the bttv module and re-load it (without parametres) then it works just fine.. anyone knows why? _________________ Never argue with an idiot. They will only pull you down to their level, then beat you with experience. |
