8.4.12 TV and Radio Cards
NOTE: USB TV Cards
Supported DVB TV cards are not configured in the YaST. They are handled by
hotplug. To start watching TV, connect your card to your computer and start
your favorite TV program.
Configure TV and radio cards with Hardware > TV Card. If your card was automatically
detected, it is displayed in the list. In this case, select the card and click Edit. If your
card was not detected, click Add. If you have already configured TV or radio cards,
select a card to modify then click Edit.
During the automatic hardware detection, YaST attempts to assign the correct tuner to
your card. If you are not sure, simply keep the setting Default (recognized) and check
whether it works. If you cannot set all channels, click Select Tuner and select the correct
tuner type from the list.
If you are familiar with the technical details, you can use the expert dialog to make
settings for a TV or radio card. Select a kernel module and its parameters in this dialog.
Also check all parameters of your TV card driver. To do this, select the respective pa-
rameters and enter the new value in the parameter line. Confirm the new values with
Apply or restore the default values with Reset.
Configure audio settings if your TV or radio card is connected to the installed sound
card. Make the connection with a cable from output of the TV or radio card to the ex-
ternal audio input of the sound card. If you have not yet configured your sound card,
select Configure Sound Card to configure it as described in
(page 143).
If your TV or radio card has speaker jacks, you can also connect the speakers directly
without using the sound card. There are also TV cards without any sound function,
which do not require an audio configuration, such as those for CCD cameras.
When editing a configuration, you can also configure the TV stations by clicking TV
Channel. Set the proper TV Standard and Frequency Table for your area and click Scan
the Channels. A list of stations appears. After scanning has been completed, click OK
to return to the configuration dialog.
