I believe that card is supported just fine. modprobe tuner run 'xawtv' and see if you can get anything. If that works you should be set to try and setup MythTV or Freevo or whatever. I am biased toward MythTV myself. Just to note, your card doesnt have any built on encoding or decoding. PVR 250 - Built on encoding in mpeg2 (this is what I use) PVR 350 - Built on encoding and decoding in mpeg2 The built on encoding and decoding reduce the load on the cpu ALOT. So you can see why they are a preferred choice when setting up a linux TV/PVR setup. Brian wrote: >I acquired a WinTV PCI 878 card. I'm curious to know what to do with this >thing under linux.
