please always provide us with the relevant dmesg output also for cards with trouble. Maybe we can fix them or at least others are informed about the issues too. The bttv WinTV model 38101 might be just a new revision and maybe the tuner is just missing in tveeprom? Old ones. bttv0: Bt878 (rev 17) at 0000:05:04.0, irq: 18, latency: 66, mmio: 0xf8400000 bttv0: detected: Hauppauge WinTV [card=10], PCI subsystem ID is 0070:13eb bttv0: using: Hauppauge (bt878) [card=10,autodetected] bttv0: gpio: en=00000000, out=00000000 in=00fffffb [init] bttv0: Hauppauge/Voodoo msp34xx: reset line init [5] tveeprom 0-0050: Hauppauge model 38101, rev B410, serial# 1993042 tveeprom 0-0050: tuner model is Philips FI1236 MK2 (idx 10, type 2) tveeprom 0-0050: TV standards NTSC(M) (eeprom 0x08) tveeprom 0-0050: audio processor is None (idx 0) tveeprom 0-0050: has no radio bttv0: Hauppauge eeprom indicates model#38101 and bttv0: Bt878 (rev 17) at 0000:05:04.0, irq: 18, latency: 66, mmio: 0xf8400000 bttv0: detected: Hauppauge WinTV [card=10], PCI subsystem ID is 0070:13eb bttv0: using: Hauppauge (bt878) [card=10,autodetected] bttv0: gpio: en=00000000, out=00000000 in=00fffffb [init] bttv0: Hauppauge/Voodoo msp34xx: reset line init [5] tveeprom 0-0050: Hauppauge model 38101, rev B426, serial# 1890608 tveeprom 0-0050: tuner model is Temic 4036FY5 (idx 26, type 8) tveeprom 0-0050: TV standards NTSC(M) (eeprom 0x08) tveeprom 0-0050: audio processor is None (idx 0) tveeprom 0-0050: has no radio bttv0: Hauppauge eeprom indicates model#38101 Cheers, Hermann -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
