KnoppMyth R5C7
Tevion MD 9717
saa7134

After a bit of trouble my Tevion MD 9717 card now automatically loads the saa7134 module with the correct options. To achieve this I modified the /etc/init.d/KnoppMyth-tv file to detect the pci card and added the options to a new file /etc/mythtv/modules/saa7134

I expect that auto detection of other card types is now broken by these changes but since I have no other multimedia cards this is of no concern to me.

This mod did not need the saa7134 line removing from the file /etc/modules.

If anyone can help me to get the radio working with myth tv then please let me know how to do it.

Best regards, hth, David Richards.

below is an extract from dmesg as the card module is loaded:
