Peter,

I have the same card.

Mine is working allright.

I use the following startup script:

----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
echo Loading IVTV drivers.
echo Loading tveeprom
modprobe tveeprom
sleep 1
echo Loading videodev
modprobe videodev
sleep 1
echo Loading cx25840
modprobe cx25840 i2c_enable=1
#sleep 1
echo Loading tuner  (This is the one supplied in ivtv-0.3.2b, rename the
tuner.ko one in the kernel)
modprobe tuner
sleep 1
echo Loading wm8775
modprobe wm8775
sleep 1
echo Loading ivtv
modprobe ivtv ivtv_std=2 tuner=52
----------------------------------------------------------------
Rename the tuner.ko module from the tuner to tuner.ko.old and run
'depmod -a'.
I have the sleeps in there because my system crashed before. I still
have to test if ony the modprobe ivtv line will work.
I have seen a posting in the group which says only the modprobe ivtv
line is needed.
    

Thanks a million! I've now got picture & sound!

I found a pdf file on the tuner at
www.business-sites.philips.com/assets/Downloadablefile/FQ_MK5-1776.pdf
Unfortunately it doesn't contain any useful information.

It is rather confusing having the in-kernel tuner.c/h/ko (which I guess is
v4l), the v4l (from linux.bytesex.org/v4l2) and the ivtv one...

Best regards

Peter K

  
The changes in the ivtv tuner need to be incorporated into the v4l one. I do not know if someone of the ivtv developers is talking to Gerd Knorr about this?!!

Regards,

Michel.
