hi all,
after further researching, I came across this website:
http://fdd.com/software/tvwonder/
which indicated that the tuner part of ATI TV-Wonder is not detected
properly. It should be type 2 (Philip, NTSC) instead of type 19 (TEMIC,
PAL) as my dmesg suggests.
After manually "modprobe tuner type=2" I can now watch TV successfully with
the righer color. The quality is *OK*, a bit grany and the colour is
washed-out. But in all, it is working; can't expect from a 10 years old
card.
However, I still have a little problem setting this type info in
/etc/modules.conf. I manually added the line of:
options tuner type=2
as the webiste suggested, but upon rebooting, the dmesg still says that the
tuner type is 19 and I still have to remod/modprobe it manually.
any idea what's the right syntax for modules.conf for tuner?
thx,
