I got pixelview pro tv card working on Redhat 9. Took some trial and error but it finally worked with modules that come with RH9 kernel by default. Past discussion threads on this in PLUG really helped.
I see some behavior with audio which I feel is annoying. When I launch an application (like radio, gnomeradio, xawtv) the bttv module gets loaded automatically and the audio starts properly. But if I exit the application the audio does not stop. There is option "mute-on-exit" in gnomeradio but that also doesn't work. I have to either mute line-in of sound card or unload bttv module manually to stop the audio. Some googling makes me believe this is "normal" behavior. Some suggest to call line-in muting through a script to automate this. But muting line-in is not really stopping the radio being played by the card. So I'd call it a workaround rather than a solution. Wonder whether anyone using video cards (pixelview or otherwise) get the same behavior and has some solution.
