Monitoring from a TV-tuner
Posted: Sun Dec 05, 2010 10:24 am
Hi there,
I am trying to setup a Hybrid TV PCI card on a old Pentium III with the latest debian system and to make the zoneminder to work with it.
The tv card is a saa7131e/03/g based model.
It is not autodetected so after hours i ended up to find at least one configuration for the saa7134 that seems to work well with tvtime.
I also created a monitor configuration in zoneminder that seems to work under some cases, where i had before started tvtime. Otherwise i get a black picture in zoneminder with the date-time info in the upper right corner.
Is this normal?
My source is from card's tv-tuner (not from card's video input) because the camera signal is multiplexed in the tv-cable.
So do i need a program like the tvtime to tell the tuner to choose a specific tv channel or not?
