Overview/Feautres

These Miro and Pinnacle cards were the original PCTV series, produced from December 1997 onwards. They are based on the Bt848 chip (Also see Bttv devices (bt848, bt878)). The PCTV Pro model includes an FM radio chip.

These cards feature:

  • TV input: RF connector for a PAL/NTSC/SECAM .. (Resolution: 768x576 and 720x576 (PAL)) .. ??? with adapter to IEC connector (PAL)
  • Video Input: S-Video, Composite Video (RCA socket)
  • Audio Outputs: 3.5 mm jack
  • FM radio RF signal (PRO only): Internal RC jack with flying wire to IEC connector
  • Video composite out (internal)
  • These Pinnacle cards are supplied with a remote controller which seems to be the same as for the Pinnacle PCTV 50i.

Components Used

  • TV tuner: Temic 4002 FH5 (also possibly Philips on some cards)
  • Analog demodulator: MSP3410D-B4 (msp3400)
  • FM radio chip (PRO models only): MSP3410
  • Video/audio decoder: bt848

Making it work

Connecting the card

  • The TV antenna signal is connected to the antenna input.
  • The card has no on board sound A/D so a cable (supplied) should be connected from the card audio output connector to a generic sound input (on either your sound card or your motherboard). Sound will needs to be redirected using sox (also see the Talk page for some examples).
  • The card itself lacks an input for the remote control. Rather, the remote control sensor cable (supplied) is connected to a 9 pin serial input (usually there is one on your motherboard).

Drivers

Module Options:

card=11

The cards may be detected automatically, but at least for the Pro card is is required to specify options explicitly in /etc/modules.cond (for Fedora, other distributions may do it differently):

Kernel output:

lspci -v

card=39

The card was autodetected by bttv as card=39, but didn't work. However when I added

it started working! Must be some bug, since only 'tuner=33' didn't work either. Pinnacle PCTV Pro bought in Sweden (PAL).

I have included as much info as I could. Ant help to resolve this problem would be very appriciated.
I have read the man and info pages, but couldn't find it useful to resolve this problem.
The problem is with the sound. On startup the picture comes in great. The sound comes in as fuzzy kinda static with out any reconizeable audio. The audio is hooked up with an external cable to my line in on my sound card. Mixer volumes are all the way up. The odd thing is that if I goto channel managment and fine to aroung +10-12 I get poor audio quallity, and terrible picture quallity. Then I change the channel, and go back to the channel, Tvtime does not pick up a signal till i reset the fine tune to 0. Is there some kind of offset for audio tunning vs. video tunning. Or is there some other way to get the audio to work.
