| Post subject: | Using composite input on Winfast DTV1000T |
Hi there, After months of scratching my head wondering why the hell i couldnt connect my cable box to my coax input on my capture card i finally realised (with the help of an XP box) that i need to use a scart to composite cable and plug that into the composite video input on my card. Great! Well not quite. I still cant figure out how to use the composite input when watching TV. I have re-run mythtv-setup from a shell and looked in the options for capture cards but i cant really see anything obvious to select/change. Id be really grateful if someone could point me in the right direction here as i know im now so close to getting TV on my mythbox. Many thanks in advance Rob |

Well i have found out why i cant select composite when choosing the video card in setup, apparently the driver for the connexant chipset i am using doesnt have support for the composite in. After a bit of searching i found numerous posts saying you had to edit the /drivers/media/video/cx88/cx88-cards.c file. However i dont seem to have this file on my system. If anyone is able to help me id be very grateful. |

You sir are a scholar and a gentleman. That worked an absolute treat. Now to start a new post on why the TV over composite is so damn jerky. |
