hi guys, after looking a lot of guides i could manage to use the tv card, but i still cant use the remote control, i tried to use this guide
http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=162240&highlight=kworld
but i got stuck in the irrecord section, i got thiss message
Hold down an arbitrary button.
irrecord: gap not found, can't continue
irrecord: closing '/dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:07:02.0--event-ir'
and im totaly lost at this point, any ideas or success experiences with this tv tuner?
i use fedora 9 64 and i have a kworld plustv
Thanks

Oct 13 13:02:28 poseidon kernel: saa7134 IR (Kworld/Tevion V-Str: unknown key: key=0x0b raw=0x0b down=1

And
