Hi all,

Hopefully someone out there can help - I'm a relative newbie to Linux, and am trying to get my TV card, PVR-250 to work on Ubuntu 7.10.

I've read a few "guides" on the web for older versions of Ubuntu, and none of them have got me very far. All I want to be able to do is watch live TV, if this is possible!

In hardware information I have listed "iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder" which I am sure is the device.

Can anyone give me any advice as to what needs to be done / installed?

Thanks,
Ed Ludlow

The PVR-250 isn't a DVB card, so this isn't the right list for it. I think you want video4linux-list, but I only use DVB so I'm no expert.

Cheers,

John
