+There are a lot of different bt848/849/878/879 based boards available.
Making video work often is not a big deal, because this is handled
completely by the bt8xx chip, which is common on all boards. But
sound is handled in slightly different ways on each board.
To handle the grabber boards correctly, there is a array tvcards[] in
-bttv-cards.c, which holds the informations required for each board.
+bttv-cards.c, which holds the information required for each board.
Sound will work only, if the correct entry is used (for video it often
makes no difference). The bttv driver prints a line to the kernel
log, telling which card type is used. Like this one:
