Hey all,
Feisty's kernel comes with the correct bits and pieces, you just need to tell it what type of card it is.
One friend told me that his worked automatically so to make sure you need to fiddle around type in "dmesg | grep saa" and if you see this you need to do the following steps
[ 39.847928] saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.14 loaded
[ 39.848432] saa7133[0]: found at 0000:01:05.0, rev: 209, irq: 21, latency: 32, mmio: 0xe8002000
[ 39.848437] saa7133[0]: subsystem: 1461:2c00, board: UNKNOWN/GENERIC [card=0,autodetected]
If you see this then why are you looking at this guide!
[ 555.864000] saa7130/34: v4l2 driver version 0.2.14 loaded
[ 555.864000] saa7133[0]: found at 0000:01:05.0, rev: 209, irq: 21, latency: 32, mmio: 0xe8002000
[ 555.864000] saa7133[0]: subsystem: 1461:2c00, board: AVerMedia TV Hybrid A16AR [card=99,insmod option]
Getting it to work
To make sure you have a A16AR type in "lspci -v" and you should see:
01:05.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev d1)
Subsystem: Avermedia Technologies Inc Unknown device 2c00
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 21
Memory at e8002000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Then type Sudo rmmod saa7134_alsa saa7134-dvb saa7134. If you cant close them type in fuser -v /dev/snd/* /dev/dsp/* and then killall -9 <process names>
Now you need to load the correct modules
modprobe saa7134 card=99
modprobe saa7134_alsa
modprobe saa7134-dvb
If this all works for you tell ubuntu to automatically use the new options for saa7134
Cd /etc/modprobe.d/
sudo echo "options saa7134 card=99" >> options
