Please don't tell me this is a "WIntuner" (my winmodem memories keep hunting me...:-)

[Mark Jayson Alvarez]

Hi,

 just purchased an ultra-cheap PCI TV Tuner, Leadtek WinFast TV2000 XP
RM and couldn't make it to work.

There were only 17 matches when you search the freebsd-multimedia
archive for "winfast"... been reading it over and over again and I
couldn't get any closer to my goal.

The box:
FreeBSD  6.2-PRERELEASE


Sysctl:

hw.bt848.slow_msp_audio: -1
hw.bt848.format: 0
hw.bt848.reverse_mute: -1
hw.bt848.tuner: 15
hw.bt848.card: 14

I tried using kbtv:

Hardware Info:

Bktr module:                   Loaded
Capture chip:                  BrookTree 878
Card name:                     Leadtek Winfast TV 2000 <sysctl:14>
-huh!? I thought it was 15 says bktr (4)
Tuner type:                     LG TP18PSB12P PAL  <sysctl:15> - as
according to this:
http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-multimedia/2005-August/002521.html

I'm leaving here in the Philippines
The tv tuner's surface doesn't really say anything about it's tuner
type. It just have a sticker with "Winfast TV2000 XP RM" and "NTSC"
selected on the checkbox..

The chipset is definitely a Conexant Fusion 878.

I tried xawtv... played with different values to no avail.

$xawtv -hwscan

This is xawtv-3.95, running on FreeBSD/i386 (6.2-PRERELEASE)
looking for available devices
port 57-88
    type : Xvideo, image scaler
    name : NV Video Blitter

/dev/bktr0: OK                          [ -device /dev/bktr0 ]
    type : bktr
    flags: overlay capture tuner


However, upon launching xawtv, I got these:

$xawtv
This is xawtv-3.95, running on FreeBSD/i386 (6.2-PRERELEASE)
Warning: Cannot convert string
"-*-ledfixed-medium-r-*--39-*-*-*-c-*-*-*" to type FontStruct
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".




I removed bktr_load="YES" from /boot/loader.conf, rebooted the machine
sysctl were also gone it was detected as:

Leadtek Winfast TV 2000, Philips FR1236 NTSC FM tuner.

Perhaps you can get something from the verbose dmesg:

Is this some sort of like winmodem issue?? I noticed that a lot people
are complaining about not making their tv tuner to work. Any idea why?


Thanks
