I spent most of yesterday afternoon googling for info on supported TV tuner
cards. From http://www.grosbill.com I found three analog cards within my
price range.
Card1:
Avermedia AVerTV GO 007 plus/fm plus. This card according to the Avermedia
site uses the Philips TDA8275 chipset.
http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/CARDLIST.saa7134 shows a variant of
this card, #57 that uses the saa7134 chipset.
FC2's /lib/modules/2.6.11-0.3.rdt.rhfc2.ccrma/kernel/drivers/media/video has
a directory with drivers for the saa7134, but the only TDA drivers are:
tda7432.ko, tda9840.ko, tda9875.ko, and tda9887.ko.
Does anyone know if this card is likely to work if it isn't using the exact
driver required?
Card2:
Pinnacle PCTV Analog PCI
Can't find any chipset info on this one from Pinnaclesys site.
Anyone know if this card is supported?
Card3:
Terratec Cinergy 250 PCI
This uses, according to the Terratec site the Philips saa-7134 chipset, but
isn't specifically listed at the link for saa7134 supported cards above.
Any one knows if this works ok?
Accepting that one of these cards has a suitable driver in the kernel, are
there additional packages I need to install in order to play TV on the Linux
box with FC2?
Thanks in advance.
Nigel.
