- Make sure your tuner works with another radio software in Linux, for
- example <application>XawTV</application>.
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
- Use the <option>channels</option> option. An example:
- <screen>-radio channels=104.4-Sibir,103.9-Maximum</screen>
- Explanation: With this option, only the 104.4 and 103.9 radio stations
- will be usable. There will be a nice OSD text upon channel switching,
- displaying the channel's name. Spaces in the channel name must be
- replaced by the "_" character.

- There are several ways of capturing audio. You can grab the sound either using
- your sound card via an external cable connection between video card and
- line-in, or using the built-in ADC in the saa7134 chip. In the latter case,
- you have to load the <systemitem>saa7134-alsa</systemitem> or
- <systemitem>saa7134-oss</systemitem> driver.
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
- <application>MEncoder</application> cannot be used for audio capture,
- because it requires a video stream to work. So your can either use
- <application>arecord</application> from ALSA project or
- use <option>-ao pcm:file=file.wav</option>. In the latter case you
- will not hear any sound (unless you are using a line-in cable and
- have switched line-in mute off).

-Passing sound over the PCI bus from the radio card's internal ADC.
-In this example the tuner is used as a second sound card
-(ALSA device hw:1,0). For saa7134-based cards either the
-<systemitem>saa7134-alsa</systemitem> or <systemitem>saa7134-oss</systemitem>
-module must be loaded.

-When using ALSA device names colons must be replaced
-by equal signs, commas by periods.
