I spent most of yesterday afternoon googling for info on supported TV tuner cards. From http://www.grosbill.com I found three analog cards within my price range. Card1: Avermedia AVerTV GO 007 plus/fm plus. This card according to the Avermedia site uses the Philips TDA8275 chipset. http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/CARDLIST.saa7134 shows a variant of this card, #57 that uses the saa7134 chipset. FC2's /lib/modules/2.6.11-0.3.rdt.rhfc2.ccrma/kernel/drivers/media/video has a directory with drivers for the saa7134, but the only TDA drivers are: tda7432.ko, tda9840.ko, tda9875.ko, and tda9887.ko. Does anyone know if this card is likely to work if it isn't using the exact driver required? Card2: Pinnacle PCTV Analog PCI Can't find any chipset info on this one from Pinnaclesys site. Anyone know if this card is supported? Card3: Terratec Cinergy 250 PCI This uses, according to the Terratec site the Philips saa-7134 chipset, but isn't specifically listed at the link for saa7134 supported cards above. Any one knows if this works ok? Accepting that one of these cards has a suitable driver in the kernel, are there additional packages I need to install in order to play TV on the Linux box with FC2? Thanks in advance. Nigel.
