[mythtv-users] Best distribution for MythTV with Bt848 and C-Media Cm8738 audio?

[Apollo (Carmel Entertainment)]

So for past 3 weeks I haven't been able to make my Bt848 capture card & Cmedia
CM838 (w/ spdif) to work. I tried Mandrake 10 and Fedora (KnoppMyth was an
absolute failure), but when I made audio card work I tried to make capture card
work. After I did bttv, the audio (ALSA) would stop working.
I tried that Howto for Fedora, but it concentrated in PVRX50 hardware, not bt848

Any advice?

Here are the two troublemaker cards...
