Re: gadmei utv 330+ tv tuner

I don't know the chipset personally, but according to the follow link it should be part of the 2.6.29 kernel:
http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/VIDEO_EM28XX.html

On my Arch system the driver is already compiled as a module:

[kenni@Desktop ~]$ zcat /proc/config.gz |grep CONFIG_VIDEO_EM28XX
CONFIG_VIDEO_EM28XX=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_EM28XX_ALSA=m
CONFIG_VIDEO_EM28XX_DVB=m

I suppose a

modprobe em28xx

should do the job on your system.

Hello ad1g3n,
you can try mcentral.de drivers, as I proposed to another user here
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=71644
look at post #9. Your tv device is listed among the supported one in the source.

Re: gadmei utv 330+ tv tuner

Hello, to get audio when using tvtime you need a script like this

#!/bin/sh
sox -r 48000 -v 1 -c 2 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp &
tvtime
killall sox

the sox command reroutes the sound from dsp1 to dsp. There are other ways to get the same result, using arecord and aplay.
When using pulseaudio you need to prepend "padsp" to the sox command, so that the script becames

#!/bin/sh
padsp sox -r 48000 -v 1 -c 2 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp &
tvtime
killall sox

BTW, in the meantime I uploaded the em28xx-new-hg package to AUR. see here.

Hope this helps.
