This is what I have in my modules.conf for the ATI TV Wonder VE. Its working
great for me.

alias char-major-81 bttv
options bttv card=64 autoload=0 radio=0
post-install bttv insmod tuner type=17

Hi again,

Thanks, adding "options tuner=2" to modules.conf seemed to solve the
problem with my color.

However, another issue is that the playback is not a full 30fps... at
least it doesn't look like it is... it looks like it is only running at
20-25fps...

Any ideas?

Thanks,

-- Andrew
