 lspci -vvv: 0000:02:0a.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA713X Audio+video broadcast decoder (rev 10)

This is card 2 in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.12-rc2/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.saa7134. Versions of FlyVideo 3000 are shipped with different tuners; to find yours, grep on the card and your television standard to pull up relevant alternatives:

  cat /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.tuner | grep Philips | grep NTSC

For the NTSC tuner, I found 17 was the right one. I had to reboot to reset the tuner; modprobe didn't do it. Boot with this in /etc/modules:

  saa1734 card=2 tuner=17

This card is capable of PCI audio transfer -- that is to say, you can get the audio straight off the card, without needing a patch cable to your sound card. For detailed instructions, see Gentoo's saa7134 wiki.
