Can you post some more info. Which card are you using? /sbin/lspci -v will show this. Also can you post the relevant bits from dmesg, for when the bttv stuff is loaded. Which FC version, and kernel are you using? I have an Hauppauge Win TV Express card, using bt878a driver. I'm in Northern France, and can receive SECAM channels from France, PAL channels from Belgiam, and PAL channels from the UK, all with an antenna, but have had to set various options in /etc/modprobe.conf to get this card working. I havn't had much success with tvtime, and am using Xawtv, Xawdecode, or Kdetv for viewing TV. It may also be worth posting to the video4linux list with this problem. they can be a bit slow to answer as it's mainly a developers list video4linux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/video4linux-list You need to register to post to the list. You need to be a bit patient. It took me between 2, and 3 weeks to get my card working ok on different distros, and different kernels can cause a problem too. At the moment I'm trying to get the card working on Debian Etch with a 2.6.17-2-686 kernel. It works ok with the 2.6.8 kernel, but some problems with the 2.6.17 one. It all makes life interesting.
