    BT878-based cards ought to work OK. What exactly do you mean by "does not
    work"? What error messages do you get? What does xawtv do/not do when you
    try and use the card? What does lsmod say? Do you have something like this
    in /etc/modules.conf:

    # The BTTV module does not load the tuner module automatically,
    # so do that in here
    # (in 2.4.24) Oh yes it does!
    #post-install bttv insmod tuner
    post-remove bttv rmmod tuner

    # from /usr/src/linux/Documentation/video4linux/bttv/Modules.conf

    # i2c
    alias char-major-89 i2c-dev
    options i2c-core i2c_debug=1
    options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1

    # bttv
    alias char-major-81 videodev
    alias char-major-81-0 bttv
    # card=37 - ProLink PixelView PlayTV Pro
    # tuner=1 - Philips PAL_I FI1246
    options bttv card=37 tuner=1 radio=1 bttv_verbose=2
    # type=1 - Philips PAL_I FI1246
    options tuner type=1 debug=1
