Signals that are received by cx88 based cards (NOVA-T and a DViCO card) work fine, but no go under linux for the compro. I think someone had mentioned that the saa7134 based cards need to have a frequency offset, which doesn't help us with multiple cards under mythtv (esp when the other cards work with the nominal frequencies) > I might try it in a winodze box to compare before I spill out the cash for > a signal amplifier. They cost almost as much as a new card! Under the exact same hardware setup, the card works perfectly under Win2k, with the supplied software. (I had to try the supplied drivers just to make sure that the card wasn't faulty) > Mind you tight arses like myself often neglect to stop & think about how > much the time costs stuffing around trying to make the unworkable work... > for the sake of a few bucks... Yes, well, I've been known to spend less on one thing, only ending up spending heaps more in both money and time to get a workable system :-S regards, Lucas -- "They're unfriendly, which is fortunate, really.
