General
(Version: VS-LTV7131RF) This (very inexpensive) card has been successfully set up on FC6. Also has an FM tuner and an IR receiver and remote.
Card information:
# lspci -v 06:02.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder (rev d1) Subsystem: Philips Semiconductors Unknown device 0000 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18 Memory at 50004800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2K] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2
Audio capture device information:
# arecord -l card 1: SAA7134 [SAA7134], device 0: SAA7134 PCM [SAA7134 PCM] Subdevices: 0/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
Assuming your soundcard is card 0 add the following to /etc/modprobe.conf:
options saa7134 card=65 tuner=54 alias snd-card-1 saa7134-alsa options snd-card-1 index=1 remove saa7134-alsa { /usr/sbin/alsactl store 0 >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove saa7134-alsa
Use v4lctl to display/set the card attributes:
[root@sandbox ~]# v4lctl list attribute | type | current | default | comment -----------+--------+---------+---------+------------------------------------- norm | choice | NTSC | PAL | PAL PAL-BG PAL-I PAL-DK NTSC SECAM PAL-M PAL-Nc PAL-60 input | choice | Televis | Televis | Television Composite1 S-Video audio mode | choice | mono | mono | mono stereo lang1 lang2 bright | int | 127 | 128 | range is 0 => 255 contrast | int | 67 | 68 | range is 0 => 127 color | int | 63 | 64 | range is 0 => 127 hue | int | 0 | 0 | range is -128 => 127 volume | int | 12 | 0 | range is -15 => 15 mute | bool | off | off | Mirror | bool | off | off | Invert | bool | off | off | y offset o | int | 0 | 0 | range is 0 => 128 y offset e | int | 0 | 0 | range is 0 => 128 automute | bool | on | on |
If you setup saa7134-alsa as card 1 you will refer to it as /dev/dsp1 in mythtv-setup when setting up the capture card.

Problems
Video but no sound? You may need to turn the volume up on the capture. Assuming /dev/dsp1 again run the following command:
[root@sandbox ~]# alsamixer -c 1
Not working in MythTV? Try it with mplayer. If this works (you may need to modify device, chanlist, adevice, or norm) then you have MythTV misconfigured somehow.
mplayer tv://"insert channel" -tv driver=v4l2:device=/dev/video0:chanlist=us-cable:alsa:\ adevice=hw.1,0:amode=1:audiorate=32000:forceaudio:volume=100:immediatemode=0:norm=NTSC
