nothing seems to work after the first two: in fact tvtime now just flickers on and then goes... areba@areba-desktop:~$ rmmod saa7134

on the mplayer, i installed and ran as indicated. I got video all right (citizen actually), but no sound. On Sat, Oct 23, 2010 at 11:51 PM, Ndungi Kyalo <ndungi@gmail.com> wrote:
Connect the tv audio out to your computer audio in using the audio Jack that comes with the tv card. This should work. Else, You could also try: rmmod saa7134; modprobe saa7134 card=86 tuner=81
Then try watching tv again with mplayer..
mplayer tv://23
(That's kbc for you, a sure hit). I suggest trouble shooting with mplayer because i have been driven insane by tvtime several times before :-). It just isn't documented well enough.

OK, ive googled and done all crazies, then i figured, since i bought it in this market, most probably some of you have encountered this. My card is based on the philips SA7130 chipset and im running it on ubuntu. card gets detected, i even see video but audio is not there. when i change to other inputs (S1 and 2) i hear sound and not TV. its like my card is capturing tv fine and then capturing audio on a different device.
