Hi; Has anyone recently purchased a TV Tuner card that works successfully with Linux and Rogers Cable? I.e. TVTime or MythTV, plus v4l and/or bttv drivers? I received an ATI Wonder Theater 550 card as a gift a couple of years back and no Linux drivers have been developed for it -- although it works fine in WindowsXP. If you have recently heard of such a Linux driver for it, please let me know. Meanwhile I am looking at replacing it with an Hauppage WinTV-HVR-1800. I have looked at various "hardware supported" sites, and this particular model seems iffy. The Hauppage specs don't give the chip used. I am not locked into this card. I just want to get my cable TV onto my Linux system. Therefore, all suggestions gratefully received. -- Regards Bill; Fedora 9, Gnome 2.22.3 Evo.2.22.3.1, Emacs 22.2.1 -- OCLUG general discussion list [email protected] http://oclug.on.ca/mailman/listinfo/oclug
