Description Sander Sweers 2006-11-01 13:54:03 UTC
The ebuild now checks for CONFIG_VIDEO_TUNER and CONFIG_VIDEO_TVEEPROM but these are not selectable. 

CONFIG_VIDEO_BT848 is selectable and sets both, plus some others, so I think it should check for this instead.

I spend many hours trying to figure out why ivtv was giving me a whole bunch of undefined symbol errors. It was because CONFIG_VIDEO_BT848 wasn't selected. I agree that it should check for this flag as it would have saved me a lot of time.

One thing I keep forgetting to ask is ... which card exactly are you (both) using, and what versions of IVTV?

Thanks

I checked it with ivtv 0.8 during a discussion on the ivtv user ml and filed this bug:

and the guy reported it working on:

I have a pvr-350 and pvr-150, v4l2-ctl --log-status

Fixed in 0.8.2-r1, removed tuner and tveeprom, added cx88.

It should be noted to avoid confusion that while IVTV doesnt use the cx88 modules, it does turn on the other options.

Ok, thanks. Why cx88, the ivtv website uses the bttv module. I know it sets the same modules but this will be confusing for some.
