No, I don't own one, but it should work. A little googeling shows
that the kernel module saa7134 should support you card. First
check whether ubuntu has loaded it already for you with 'lsmod' and if
yes, then look for the output of the module with 'dmesg' what the
module thinks about the card. If the module is not loaded, do it
yourself with 'modprobe' and check again with 'dmesg'.


Hi Gerald, thanks for the tips, can see it with lsmod, and equally with
dmesg I can see

So looks positive, however, how can I actually watch the stream...? what
program can I use with ubuntu?

Thanks all
