Roger Hardiman: |> Was over at the Hauppauge site today, and noticed the WinTV-Theater card: |> Anybody got one working with FreeBSD? | |Frank Nobis <fn@radio-do.de> in Germany has one. |The european version of the card has these features |Bt878, Philips Tuner. (nothing new there) |A MSP3415 NICAM Stereo decoder chip (which the Bt848 driver supports) |Another chip (was it a DSP35xx ???) which does the dolby decoding. | |You get normal stereo TV without having to initialise the Dolby chip, |so the current Bt848 driver works with the card in Stereo TV mode. ... |As far as I know, on the back are several line out sockets, one for |normal Left and Right from the TV/FM Radio/NICAM stereo signal. |The others drive your other speaker sets. Thanks for the info. |So Randall, if you fancy getting one, we can have support for it in the |driver without any problems. No, my computer speakers are too cheap to justify it. I was just surprised that I hadn't heard about it on the list. Randall To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
