</div></div></blockquote></div><br>Ok. <br><br>This is what I have done so far. I have installed Mythbuntu 9.10 32-bit on my PC. After that I have installed avertv volar ax driver which i got from <a href="http://www.avermedia.com/avertv/Support/Download.aspx?Type=Software&id=182&tab=APDriver">here</a>. The installation went fine. Right now, Mythtv has detected my capture card. I am trying to figure out how can I make mythTV scan for channels as the list grabbers does not include my country. I'm based in Malaysia. My mentor said that I have to test the card first using other tools to make sure that it works. I ran this command:<br>
<br><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">bitto@bitto:~$ mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:alsa:adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=48000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:normid=0:freq=147250:outfmt=YUY2<br>
<br>but it yielded just this and an mplayer blank screen.<br><br>video buffer full - dropping frame<br>A:71430.1 V:65485.2 A-V:5944.938 ct:3032.083 881368/881368 0% 0% 0.0% 3 0 <br>video buffer full - dropping frame<br>
