AVerTV Hybrid Volar HX shows DVB-T but doesn't show Analog tv
Added by Jorge Leitao over 12 years ago
Hi, after trying many PCI tv cards with tvheadend, I bought a USB AVerTV Hybrid Volar HX. It works great, but the web interface only shows the DVB interface.. not the analog tv.. any tricks?
Tvheadend says: "[ALERT]:v4l: Unable to open /dev/video0 -- Device or resource busy"
See the logs on my Debian 6 system:
