I probably can't help much as my card is an Hauppauge WinTV Express. Analogue TV (antenna), and the card has an audio out for connecting to the line in on the soundcard. Anyway can you send the output from the following before you modprobe the tuner module. lspci -vn lsmod (the whole lsmod please) To autoload the tuner module at bootup, and as Fedora does not have an /etc/modules file (as debian has), try putting the line below in /etc/rc.d/rc.local modprobe tuner Not sure on the sound problem as I don't know how the sound is routed to the soundcard from your TV card. Open alsamixer as below, and press F4 which will show the capture controls. If your soundcard is an hda-intel one, there will be few controls showing, but maybe it's worth a fiddle with what's there. Also F10 has got pulseaudio installed, and perhaps pulseaudio has something to do with the lack of sound from the TV card. Do the sounds work ok apart from the TV card? I never got tvtime to work well, and use xawtv myself. All the best.
