| Post subject: | Please help - ATI TV Wonder Elite |
First and foremost I am completely new to linux and mythtv so please forgive me if I have missed something obvious. I have read all the posts I can find, but they seem to pertain to the TV Wonder Pro or TV Wonder VE and don't resemble (not yet anyway) my problem. I know the card works because I had Windows installed and working with the ATI media center (whatever it is called) before I saw all the great features that MythTV has. The problem, it seems, is that while the card is "seen" and has an irq, it is not recognized by knoppmyth, as if it doesn't know what driver to use. My System Motherboard: Abit AN7 Nvidia Nforce2 Ultra400 TV Tunder : ATI TV Wonder Elite Video Card: Nvidia MX440 64MB memory Memory: 1.2GB (2 x 512MB + 1 x 256MB) CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2500 HD: Seagate Barracuda 300GB 7200RPM SATA Here are some results of commands I have found along the way (cut down to just the important stuff, hopefully) lspci -vv Code: 01:0a.0 Multimedia controller: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device 4d52 Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Unknown device a346 Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 32 (500ns min, 1000ns max), Cache Line Size: 32 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11 Region 0: Memory at dd000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M] Region 1: Memory at d8000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=32M] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- lsmod Code: nvidia 4545108 12 autofs4 21124 0 ipv6 248096 16 af_packet 24072 2 nvram 11272 0 dvb_bt8xx 16900 0 nxt6000 10884 1 dvb_bt8xx mt352 9988 1 dvb_bt8xx sp887x 10884 1 dvb_bt8xx dst_ca 16000 1 dvb_bt8xx dst 29320 2 dvb_bt8xx,dst_ca bt878 12792 2 dvb_bt8xx,dst bttv 167028 2 dvb_bt8xx,bt878 video_buf 23940 1 bttv ir_common 28420 1 bttv compat_ioctl32 5248 1 bttv i2c_algo_bit 12296 1 bttv btcx_risc 8072 1 bttv tveeprom 17296 1 bttv videodev 24960 1 bttv v4l1_compat 17540 1 videodev v4l2_common 23808 2 bttv,videodev dvb_core 73640 2 dvb_bt8xx,dst_ca dvb_pll 16132 1 dvb_bt8xx cx24110 11396 1 dvb_bt8xx or51211 12932 1 dvb_bt8xx firmware_class 11648 4 dvb_bt8xx,sp887x,bttv,or51211 zl10353 8708 1 dvb_bt8xx lgdt330x 11676 1 dvb_bt8xx eth1394 20740 0 ati_remote 13448 0 parport_pc 39140 0 parport 34504 1 parport_pc 8250_pnp 12544 0 8250 24708 1 8250_pnp serial_core 20864 1 8250 ohci1394 34480 0 ieee1394 287064 2 eth1394,ohci1394 snd_intel8x0 32156 0 snd_ac97_codec 94116 1 snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_bus 6144 1 snd_ac97_codec shpchp 35876 0 pci_hotplug 31560 1 shpchp snd_pcm_oss 42912 0 snd_mixer_oss 18176 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm 69380 3 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 22404 1 snd_pcm snd 47588 6 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer soundcore 11360 1 snd snd_page_alloc 11784 2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm ehci_hcd 32520 0 ohci_hcd 22020 0 usbcore 111364 4 ati_remote,ehci_hcd,ohci_hcd i2c_nforce2 10240 0 i2c_core 20864 15 nvidia,dvb_bt8xx,nxt6000,mt352,sp887x,dst,bttv,i2c_algo_bit,tveeprom,dvb_pll,cx24110,or51211,zl10353,lgdt330x,i2c_nforce2 nvidia_agp 10268 1 agpgart 29656 2 nvidia,nvidia_agp evdev 11776 2 tsdev 10176 0 dmesg | grep bttv Code: bttv: driver version 0.9.16 loaded bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture modprobe -c | grep "bttv" Code: include /etc/mythtv/modules/bttv1 alias char-major-81-1 bttv options bttv card=64 radio=0 tuner=2 include /etc/mythtv/modules/bttv1 alias char-major-81-1 bttv options bttv card=64 radio=0 tuner=2 alias pci:v0000109Ed00000350sv*sd*bc*sc*i* bttv alias pci:v0000109Ed00000351sv*sd*bc*sc*i* bttv alias pci:v0000109Ed0000036Esv*sd*bc*sc*i* bttv alias pci:v0000109Ed0000036Fsv*sd*bc*sc*i* bttv alias symbol:bttv_i2c_call bttv alias symbol:bttv_sub_register bttv alias symbol:bttv_gpio_enable bttv alias symbol:bttv_sub_unregister bttv alias symbol:bttv_write_gpio bttv alias symbol:bttv_get_id bttv alias symbol:bttv_gpio_inout bttv alias symbol:bttv_get_pcidev bttv alias symbol:bttv_gpio_bits bttv alias symbol:bttv_get_cardinfo bttv alias symbol:bttv_get_gpio_queue bttv alias symbol:bttv_sub_bus_type bttv alias symbol:bttv_gpio_read bttv alias symbol:bttv_gpio_write bttv alias symbol:bttv_read_gpio bttv nano /etc/mythtv/modules/bttv1 Code: alias char-major-81-1 bttv

No luck, I even did a fresh install and tried it. Is there any way I can force the bttv driver to load for the tv tuner? |

After having a quick google, using the Elite for capture does not look promising. ATI does not support Linux well, so there does not seem to be any apparent way (at the moment) to use this card for capture. Bruce S. |

I have seen threads where people have gotten their TV Wonder Pro/VE to work using the bttv driver, but I just noticed that it looks like that driver is for cards with software encoding and the Elite card has hardware mpeg2 encoding which, I'm guessing, is why it isn't being recognised. Well...dang. I was really looking forward to using MythTV over MediaPortal, but it looks like I must use MediaPortal unless I want to buy a different card. Thanks for your help bruce and psicard. |
