Hi;
 I just got this card as it has a digital tuner.
Comcast decided to shift channels 30-70 to digital.

Anyway this tuner does not work yet in F10.

[mick at localhost ~]$ tvtime
Running tvtime 1.0.2.
Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /home/mick/.tvtime/tvtime.xml
xvoutput: No XVIDEO port found which supports YUY2 images.

*** tvtime requires hardware YUY2 overlay support from your video card
*** driver.  If you are using an older NVIDIA card (TNT2), then
*** this capability is only available with their binary drivers.
*** For some ATI cards, this feature may be found in the experimental
*** GATOS drivers: http://gatos.souceforge.net/
*** If unsure, please check with your distribution to see if your
*** X driver supports hardware overlay surfaces.

"unable to grab video

Video display is not possible with the current plugin configuration. Try playing with the configuration options of the V4L2 plugin."


Any ideas?
