Get a Hauppauge TVIVO instead, or get a standard sort of sound card for sound. >I'm watching TV just fine with an ATI AIW Rage 128 Pro, FreeBSD 4-stable, and XFree86-4.3.x. Granted, I'm not capturing, but to view TV I installed the 'stuff' from http://gatos.sourceforge.net and xawtv. Full screen, all of the expected functions (except capture) work well. Try it ;) I did try it, it doesn't support my card. I have an AIW 9800 Pro and it uses the 350 Theater Chip. As far as I can tell it's still not supported. All that might have changed. >> I didn't do the research. But there's enough hardware and such to make one happy if they do the research. But this is being pointed out to by other posters. >> >Granted, the Hauppage cards are better supported, but you might as well use what you've got. >-- >Joshua >There are some things worth dying for. > -- Kirk, "Errand of Mercy", stardate 3201.7 >_______________________________________________ >freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list >http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions >To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
