Hi. I am writing to you because I am helping a Fedora user that has problems using tvtime with its Pinnacle Systems, Inc. PCTV 72e [DiBcom DiB7000PC] Before he asked for my help, the user said he managed to work the card with its webcam, but not with the DBV-T Pinnacle card (USB). He says also to have a PCI DVB-S card installed in the system.
by default settings, if he executes tvtime from bash, he will get |||=========================================|| $ tvtime Running tvtime 1.0.2. Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml Reading configuration from /home/italman71/.tvtime/tvtime.xml videoinput: Cannot open capture device /dev/device0: File o directory non esistente mixer: find error: Successo mixer: Can't open mixer default, mixer volume and mute unavailable. mixer: Can't open device default/Line, mixer volume and mute unavailable. |||=========================================|| but as you can see from ls /dev/ ( http://pastebin.com/vGYaD1mY ) there is not a |/dev/device0 but other interesting devices like video0, video1, v4l, dvb He did some unsuccessfull tries, for example | |||=========================================|| $ tvtime --device /dev/video1 Running tvtime 1.0.2.

Thank you for using tvtime. ||||=========================================|| it gave to the user a black screen, so I told him to try video0, but it seemed to be the output of computer webcam | ||=========================================|| ||tvtime --device /dev/video0 Running tvtime 1.0.2.
