WinTV resolution and other issues

Hello.

I’m not sure if the following is an openSUSE specific issue,a motherboard issue, a 64 bit issue, or if it’s something else entirely. Anyway…

I have a Hauppauge WinTV (BT878) card that I would like to use. I have used this cad before in an older computer, with linux, and it worked fine then, so I’m assuming it still works fine now.

The main issue that I have is that I can’t change the resolution to (motv, transcode, etc) to anything over 352x240. If I do, I get errors about not being able to dequeue frames and such and I get no picture and/or the program hangs/crashes. Also, I can’t get lavrec to work no matter what resolution I set. It crashes with queuing errors as well.

In case it matters, my motherboard is an Asus M4A78T-E, I have openSUSE 11.2 64 bit.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Peter

It’s listed in the HCL
HCL/TV Cards - openSUSE
Nothing noted down for 11.2 - but that’s not surprising.
Other than that I’m afraid I can’t help.
