Run mythtv setup, delete all cards, add the NTSC tuner first, then add 
the ATSC tuner.

Set the priority for the ATSC card higher than the NTSC in Mythtvsetup.

Hopefully it's not a dumb question, 'cause I want to know too.  I've 
been experimenting since I got my card (about a week ago), and have 
had LIMITED success.  Right now I'm using the dvb drivers (cx88-dvb) 
for ATSC and the cx8800 for NTSC.  But for me, what usually happens is 
that if I start in ATSC mode, I can't switch to NTSC (and vice-versa).

Regarding the mythtvsetup:  I configured two separate tuners: a V4L2 
one (NTSC) using /dev/video1 (I have a webcam on /dev/video0), and a 
DVB one (ATSC).  Then I set up two separate antennas (one HD, one SD) 
with Zap2It (you have to use 2 different zip codes to set up 2 
profiles, AFAIK), and tied each to its respective tuner.  And you can 
select which format to use (and thus which tuner) on a per-channel 
basis (as well as having a "global default" which you already found).

I'm using the 2.0 drivers from the pcHDTV website, FC3 and kernel 
2.6.10-1.770_FC3.

BTW, anyone know how to tell MythTV which tuner to use when first

Set the priority for the ATSC card higher than the NTSC in Mythtvsetup.

I have the save setup and same driver.  But once I add an analog
source I simply cannot watch TV any more.  Mythbackend complains about
no PIDS set.  Don't know what I do wrong.  (I do set up the starting
channel).

Also I don't see an option to choose TV format on the video source
basis.  I can only choose a default format, and modify it for each
individual channel.  It's kind of tedious.

I don't have to use different zip code to add a line-up in zap2it. 
Here it gives 4 line-ups for my zip code, broadcasting, cable, digital
cable, and satellite.

There is a TV format option in mythtvsetup.  I guess if I selected 
ATSC I won't be able to watch NTSC channels.  Is this correct?

[mythtv-users] watch analog and ditial tv on the same card?

2005-04-05 Thread Xiaotian Sun
Hi,

This may be a dumb question.  Can I watch analog and digital tv
using the same pcHDTV-3000 card?  I attempted but without success.

There is a TV format option in mythtvsetup.  I guess if I selected
ATSC I won't be able to watch NTSC channels.  Is this correct?

Thanks,

Xiaotian
