Hiho,
I try to get a Pinnacle PCTV Sat to work. I test with tvtime, but I
always get this error message
videoinput: Can't get tuner info: Invalid argument
and only S-Video and Composite as input sources, but no DVB TV.
These are the details. If you need more information, please tell me.
* Debian unstable on an AMD XP 2500
* Kernel 2.6.6, self compiled from Debian sources with an unchanged
Debian kernel config file (needed to get the closed source ATI
X11 DRI drivers to work)
* I load the following kernel modules (found this in a so called "pinux"
PDF file from a Pinnacle community site)
modprobe bttv i2c_hw=1 card=94
modprobe cx24110
modprobe dvb-bt8xx
[ probably I'm already missing something essential here... ]
* lsmod output

* looks good so far, but tvtime gives me this error message:
videoinput: Can't get tuner info: Invalid argument
* also scantv fails:
scanning channel list europe-west...
E2 ( 48.25 MHz): ioctl: VIDIOC_G_TUNER(index=0;name="";
type=unknown;capability=0x0 [];rangelow=0;rangehigh=0;

no station
... and so on
I searched the web, all mailing list archives I found, but without
success. From the CARDS list on linuxtv.org the Pinnacly PCTV card
should be supported, so I'm hopefully simply doing something wrong and
hopefully someone here can tell me what ;)
Thanks,
Joern
