-- Make sure you have a recent 2.0.x kernel (I recommend AT LEAST 2.0.33!)
- or a recent 2.1.x kernel.
- Older kernels might lead to problems.
-
-- Do NOT compile videodev into your kernel!
- Use the module supplied with bttv.
-
-- Edit "driver/Makefile":
-
- - If you do NOT have a Miro card:
- Adjust TUNER to a number between 0 and 7.
-
- This number has the following meaning:
-
- 0: Temic PAL tuner
- 1: Philips PAL_I tuner
- 2: Philips NTSC tuner
- 3: Philips SECAM tuner
- 4: no tuner
- 5: Philips PAL tuner
- 6: Temic NTSC tuner
- 7: Temic PAL tuner
- 8: Temic 4036 FY5 NTSC tuner
-
- The number corresponds to the number (-1) given at the GPIO port of the
- Bt848 on Miro cards.
-
-
- - Adjust CARD to one of the numbers below:
-
- 0: Auto-Detect
- 1: Miro
- 2: Hauppauge
- 3: STB
- 4: Intel
- 5: Diamond
- 6: AVerMedia
- 7: Matrix Vision MV-Delta
- 8: Fly Video II
- 9: TurboTV
- 10: Newer Hauppauge (Bt878)
- 11: Miro PCTV Pro
- 12: ADS Tech Channel Surfer TV (and maybe TV+FM)
- 13: AVerMedia TVCapture 98
- 14: Aimslab VHX
- 15: Zoltrix TV-Max
-
- - You may have to adjust BTTV_MAJOR to a different number depending on your
- kernel version. The official number 81 does not work on some setups.
- But instead of changing it, better update to a newer kernel.
-
- - If you have a Bt848a or Bt849 on your board you might have to
- uncomment: -DUSE_PLL
-
-- do a "make" in the main directory.
-
-If you have Hauppauge card read "README.HAUPPAUGE" before proceeding.
-
-- type "make ins"
-
- This creates the bttv devices in /dev and installs the bttv module
-
- Look in the kernel log file (/var/adm/syslog or /var/log/kernel or something
- else depending on your /etc/syslogd.conf or just call "dmesg")
- and see what bttv reported (lines starting with "bttv:")
- If the installation failed and you send e-mail to me always include those
- lines! Dumps of the insmod output alone do not help at all.
-
-- Start X11 in hi or true color mode
- 8 bit color is also supported but really ugly!
- (If you have an S3 card you might have to start X11 before installing
- the module!)
-
- If you have Motif or LessTif, "xtvscreen" in the "XTV" directory should
- have been compiled with the "make" above.
- Otherwise use the statically linked version which should be available
- on the web site you got bttv from.
- Read the documentation in "XTV" and start xtvscreen.
-
-- make applications by typing "make" in "apps"
