PCTV Card

So I finally have the PCTV card working and nicely. After reading the output of tvtime I got the picture even better:

TERMINAL
----------
Running tvtime 0.9.12.
rtctimer: Cannot set periodic interval: Permission denied

Failed to get 1024 Hz resolution from your RTC device. High
resolution access is necessary for video to be smooth. Please
run tvtime as root, set tvtime as SUID root, or change the
maximum RTC resolution allowed for user processes by running this
command as root:
sysctl -w dev.rtc.max-user-freq=1024
See our support page at http://tvtime.net/ for more information.

Reading configuration from /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml
Reading configuration from /home/bobby/.tvtime/tvtime.xml
mixer: Can't open device /dev/mixer, mixer volume and mute unavailable.
Thank you for using tvtime.
bobby@stocks bobby $ sudo sysctl -w dev.rtc.max-user-freq=1024
sudo: sysctl: command not found
bobby@stocks bobby $ sudo /sbin/sysctl -w dev.rtc.max-user-freq=1024
dev.rtc.max-user-freq = 1024
