Hi All, I've been trying to get my new Compro VideoMate DVB-T200 working with MythTV for days now and have had no luck (at the pulling-hair-out stage now!). I'm hoping someone on this list could point out where I'm going wrong! The card is based on the Phillips SAA7134 chip. Inside the tin can I can see a TMA10046A. I'm running 64-bit FC4 on an Athlon64, with kernel 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4. After physically installing the card, FC4 seemed to automagically detect it as the saa7134 module is now loaded at boot time. Inspection of /var/log/messages showed the card was being detected as type 0 "Unknown/Generic", so I edited /etc/modprobe.conf to set the type as 19 - "Compro VideoMate TV". Rebooting and checking /var/log/messages showed the saa7134 module was now seeing it as the correct card. Now that driver only installed the v4l devices in dev, and I quickly realised I needed to load saa7134-dvb manually. I did this, and it installed a few other modules along with it. The modules load, there are no errors, however there is no mention of them loading in /var/log/messages. Also, the dvb devices are not created in /dev. I've checked that udev is configured correctly to create the dvb devices when an appropiate module is loaded. During my googling I came across an article (can't find it again now!) which showed a couple of lines added to /var/log/messages after loading saa7134-dvb. This isn't happening to me, so I'm guessing the module isn't loading correctly somehow, hence why the dvb devices are not created in /dev. I also came across a few articals talking about firmware for the card... I've followed these instructions and now have "dvb-fe-tda10046.fw" in /lib/firmware. However there is no mention of uploading the firmware in /var/log/messages when loading either saa7134 or saa7134-dvb. Further searching resulted in mentions of having to patch the Kconfig file for saa7134-dvb.ko in order to load tma1004x.ko. I have done this and recompiled the module, however using this new module makes no difference to the situation. So I've tried everything I can think of, and am at my witts end! :) The output of lsmod after manually loading saa7134-dvb is below. I've alos included the relevant part of /var/log/messages produced when saa7134 is loaded. A few things I'm unsure about: * Is my 'tuner' module option set correctly (see messages below)? I'm in the UK, so would exped a PAL tuner to be used... * Is my 'card' module option set correctly? It sounds like my card, though could there be a slight difference between cards which is causing the problem? Any help would be really really apreciated!
