On and off, I've been googling to find if there's something I can tell it, or the kernel on boot. Currently, I have, in /etc/modprobe.d/bttv: options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1 options bttv gbuffers=16 card=98,98,98,98,98,98,98,98 radio=0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 tuner=4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4 chroma_agc=1 combfilter=2 full_luma_range=1 coring=1 which is something I got from googling as to how to get it working.
