Hi,
I'd like to report a working device:
Name: Prolink PixelView PlayTV Kernel: 2.6.23 ID: 0x878-0x00:0x00 Digital Rate: 128000 (I think)
I can record mono fine with arecord:
% arecord -D hw:2,1 -f S16_LE -t wav test.wav Recording WAVE 'test.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono Warning: rate is not accurate (requested = 8000Hz, got = 119466Hz)
The rate the driver suggested looks scary. Something must be broken more deeply..
It's normal for the chip. It does 8-bit mono at very high sample rates to allow for software decoding of stereo TV audio. I think 119466 Hz is the lowest rate it supports, which is why is choose it when 8000 Hz was requested.
