I don't know exactly what is the thing with tda9887. When I insert the ivtv module without the correct tda9887 option, I just get static. I tried the following four (tda9887=-2 is not in the modinfo documentation) parameters: ivtv tda9887=-2 autoload=0 -> noise (tda9887=autodetect) ivtv tda9887=-1 autoload=0 -> noise (tda9887=disable) ivtv tda9887=0 autoload=0 -> picture (tda9887=normal) ivtv tda9887=1 autoload=0 -> noise (tda9887=no qss) When you leave out the tda9887 option, the autodetect is the default, so I my case autodetection fails. I also would like to know why, so I hope you can give me a hint on where to look. Does it have something to do with not-autoloading the modules? Does it have something to do with the ivtv-detect output (tda9887 is not there either) There is also some tuner specific code in ivtv-driver which relates to both tda9887 and my tuner TUNER_PHILIPS_FM1216ME_MK3 (ivtv-driver:1359), perhaps I have some exceptional model where it doesn't work...? I'm already glad that it works now, but would also like to see the default options (no options) working. _______________________________________________ ivtv-users mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-users
