RE: [mythtv-users] fusion hdtv 5 gold or lite?

2006-01-03 Thread Rob
I have both cards and they seem to work about the same, for analog and
digital.  I'm not aware of a way to use the card to tune both analog and
digital, since there doesn't seem to be a way to tell Myth that the two
different interfaces are sharing one tuner.   Someone can correct me if I'm
missing something, but when I set up both a V4L analog and a DVB source,
they fight with each other.

There is nothing unusual about tuning QAM with the Fusion lite.  Cable QAM
has never been easier than it is with the current SVN version of Myth.
Just modprobe dvb-bt8xx with an appropriate kernel, configure the card in
Myth and do a scan.  Since cable doesn't usually give you PSIP data you'll
have a bunch of "unnamed" channels you can surf through and find what you
want.

The bt878 chipset is only being used for analog. If your main aim to
capture digital, than the chipset cx23883 and bt878 is not relevant.

But if you want to tune both analog and digital, then go with Gold.

[mythtv-users] fusion hdtv 5 gold or lite?

2006-01-03 Thread Neil
hey guys, 

Which is much more supported by mythtv and linux, fusion hdtv 5 gold or the 
lite? 

FusionHDTV5 GoldPlus uses CX23882 chip while Fusion hdtv5 lite uses Bt878 
chip. I will be adding this card to my existing mythtv that has air2pc card 
too. 

Any inputs will be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks, 


Neil
