Re: Trouble building v4l-dvb

["Ole W. Saastad" <olewsaa@online.no>]

Thanks for all help so far.

I managed to figure out the firetv problem as soon as I discovered
the .myconfig file.

Including the drivers from Sandberg, for the rtl2832 chip and adding
some lines to Makefile, Kconfig and .myconfig it compiles and install.
Modules load and Me-TV starts, quality is poor with the small antenna.

However, there is no audio. Not even for the DAB radio channels.

Maybe this is Me-TV problem?

The version supplied with Easy Peasy Ubuntu 9.10 is old,  0.7.16.


Regards,
Ole W. Saastad
