Hey Guys,

I was just installing Fedora Core 6 for a friend. And they use their
machine as a tv (pci tv tuner).

When I launch TvTime, it immediately fails. The output at the console
level is bellow, no other output is apparent. Please advise a.s.a.p

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Running tvtime 1.0.1.
Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /home/vashanti/.tvtime/tvtime.xml
xvoutput: No XVIDEO port found which supports YUY2 images.

*** tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card
*** driver.  If you are using an older NVIDIA card (TNT2), then
*** this capability is only available with their binary drivers.
*** For some ATI cards, this feature may be found in the experimental
*** GATOS drivers: http://gatos.souceforge.net/
*** If unsure, please check with your distribution to see if your
*** X driver supports hardware overlay surfaces.
