Hallo:
I'm using k9.10. I'be bought a tv card Avermedia Digi Volar (HDTV H.264).

How can I use it in Linux?

Thanks

I never heard of it.
But I do know about google.

The first link went here:
http://www.avermedia.com/avertv/prod...ail.aspx?id=39

And at the bottom of the page it said:

** "The Linux driver, has been a part of kernel (http://www.kernel.org/) since version 2.6.28 which offers a plug-and-play experience in most of the various distributions. You can also pick a preferred tool, utility or standalone player in http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Software. All these are done by Linux communities and AVerMedia appreciates the efforts from them.

The rest is up to you

After installing firmware and configuring Kaffine, I can watch TV.

Thanks.

As the song says, isn't it ironic? For my Pinnacle USB TDT stick, Avermedia windows software requires a 3Ghz or faster CPU simply to watch TV. The beta Linux driver shows a nice digital TV image in lowly 1.6Ghz netbook using open source components... Avermedia should look into Linux as a model of light and efficient.
