LifeView FlyDVB-T Duo CardBus

This is by no means a complete guide and suggests only how to use the analog tuner not the digital one. This card is claimed to support DVB-T Digital TV, NTSC M/J, PAL BG/DK/I, PAL M/N, SECAM BG/DK, etc.

Modify /etc/modprobe.conf by adding this line

options saa7134 card=55 oss=55

Then, restart the driver by rebooting -- Windows style! -- or by unloading and reloading the module:

rmmod saa7134
modprobe saa7134 card=55 oss=1

Then, edit /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml and /homedir/.tvtime/tvtime.xml, and set norm to PAL.

Then, execute tvtime with the following command:

tvtime

Sound does not work right away, you need to switch the mixer to line1, for example with aumix:

aumix -d /dev/mixer1 line1 R

While tvtime cannot handle sound, you can use sox. Just start tvtime and then sox, like this:

sox -t ossdsp -w -c2 -r 32000 /dev/sound/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/sound/dsp
