Re: [linux-dvb] SAA7160/2

Creating a wiki site for Empia based devices and setting up a
Mailinglist worked out well. That way you also get the email addresses
of people who are very likely interested in such device.

 ie, i need to provide them information that there is some significant

 Additionally, vendors such as Azurewave are ready to help us as well,
 in whatever way they can.

 Any ideas, how we can show user support in terms of a future business

[linux-dvb] Compiling dvb-usb-adapter module outside the kernel source.

2007-08-01 Thread lwtbenben
Hi, everyone
Which header files should be include in the cxusb.c if I want to compile 
the module outside Linux kernel tree?
I found some module in file Documentation/kbuild/modules.txt, but it just 
needs many header files, but I have no idea, please give me some advice.

 Yeah, I tried this and it can compile correctly.
 But what should I do if I just want to compile the dvb-usb-cxusb.ko module.

You run make menuconfig in the v4l-dvb/v4l directory and you select the 
Conexant USB2.0 hybrid reference design support only, and it will 
compile.

Hi Patrick,

I've tried this new firmware with my nova-t stick (DiBcom 7000MA/MB/PA/PB/MC).

kernel 2.6.17
v4l-dvb from some months ago, hg log says:
changeset: 5525:04775fe614d6
date: Sun Apr 15 06:09:56 2007 -0700


I've modified Kaffeine a bit to do autozap (zap in a loop through a list of 5 
channels (one per mux) every 2000ms(+tuning delay)).

- With the old firmware, i got a disconnect after 141 channel switch.
- With the new (renamed) firmware (md5: 551df6387db5bf5a8ca4d10cc30beaa5), i 
got NO disconnect after 4723 channel switch. (i stopped there :)

So, i feel i can say this issue is fixed for nova-t stick with this new 
firmware.

Thanx.

What about the tuning/EEPROM patch?

I have posted twice, with no appearance in the list, a message about
remote control errors (tons of them in syslog!). I saw that you made a
commit in your tree about remote control stuff. Is that related? I'll
try a new build tonight.

 
 The dib0700-firmware seems to be OK - though it is still a -pre. I think 
 in 1 month there will a real release and the name will change.
 
 Please test the things exhaustively and report any errors (or even

Enjoy them!

 C'est une bonne nouvelle. (Great news)

 Is this autozap feature part of kaffeine's release. It would be nice to
 have that so that a lot of people can make stress tests with their
 hardware and drivers.

The code is commented out in DvbPanel::playLastChannel()
One would just have to uncomment that code (at the top) and comment out the 
active code (at bottom).
Then start kaffeine and click the Play DVB button on kaffeine' Start page 
(channels are not displayed but streamed to avoid involving xine, so make 
sure to setup dvb broadcast parameters).
To stop, you have to quit kaffeine.

 Hi, Mauro 
 My USB driver has registered successfully. The problem is the
 frontend.
 I just can not get an available adap-fe pointer.

It seems to be a problem on your code. It would help if you put your
code somewhere and ask people for taking a look on it. 

Also, as Patrick and Luca said, the better environment for you to
develop a new driver is using a copy of v4l-dvb + your driver. Assuming
that your driver is called mydriver, you need just to:

a) create a newer dir with your driver: 
/linux/drivers/media/dvb/mydriver
b) Under /linux/drivers/media/dvb/mydriver:
create a Kconfig and a Makefile 
   You may use another Kconfig/Makefile as example (for example, pluto2)
c) Add your driver directory at /linux/drivers/media/dvb/Makefile:
obj-y:= dvb-core/ frontends/ ttpci/ ttusb-dec/ ttusb-budget/ 
b2c2/ bt8xx/ cinergyT2/ dvb-usb/ pluto2/ mydriver/

d) Add a source line for your driver at /linux/drivers/media/dvb/Kconfig:
source drivers/media/dvb/mydriver/Kconfig

After that, you will be able to use v4l-dvb makefile to compile your
driver.  With
make help
you'll see some useful syntax that may help your development.

Cheers,
Mauro

Sorry it was a bit difficult to see which should have been relevant
because every second word was f***.

P. van Gaans I do not know what you mean - my clock is set correctly.

As Luca already pointed out, I can only see that cxusb.c is part of
the stand-alone dvb driver tree which can be compiled outside the
kernel tree.
If the OP wants to compile it without the surrounding dvb tree,
it will anyways be non-trivial to sort out the dependencies - but
you definitely need more knowledge about what this shall be used
for, then.

Why should you care about the project's internal problem, when you

 Well for reading this list out of curiosity for a while (also I have a
 TT S-1500 CI that I plan to use soon ;-) I for sure am surprised by the
 amount of noise surrounding actual coding discussion. I have
 participated in another free software project and things were much
 smoother.
 I understand that some people will just not get along, but things sound
 really nasty sometimes here.
 And to be direct: what are the solutions that you can come up with to
 improve patch handling?

Well I'll soon introduce a few kernel drivers which add the
possibility to move i2c tuners (for DVB and V4L - including support
for hybrid/multistandard tuners) and demodulators to userspace so that
noone has to deal with that project here if he wants to write such
drivers.
This will make it easier for people to enable support for certain
devices since they don't have to submit the code to the kernel
anymore, also the firmware problems won't exist there anymore since in
userspace applications can easier directly compile them in without
having to fear legal issues.

In general I miss the _will do_ attitude here even if things aren't
perfect at the first time, someone else can always spend some more
time on something and make it better - this is only about drivers and
not about something that affects the whole internals of the kernel.

 As as user (and hopefully in a near future tester/coder) I would like
 to at least see this project moving forward even if love is not pouring
 from everywhere on the ML ;-)

let's see how it will evolve during the next year.

[linux-dvb] dvb_ca_en50221.c,h - a hook needed

2007-08-01 Thread Akiva Sadovski
Dear all,
  I'm working on a driver for a SCM's CIMaX chip 
(http://www.scmmicro.com/ir/pdf/10K-Q4-04.pdf - DVB-CI interface). The driver 
is supposed to be used at our proprietary HW platform. I'd like to use the 
dvb-core as a (great) platform for the driver. 
However, IMHO it lacks the following functionality:

  before using the CIMaX chip I have to set up some registers that configure 
the voltages it uses, pin assignment etc,  

  the most natural place to do it is while open()-ing the device, but the 
dvb_ca_en50221_io_open() has no hook 
  (smth like int (*slot_reset)() ) available,

  and I don't want to put any chip-wide initialization code to driver's init 
function (the driver is supposed to deal with 
  with few CIMaXes)

  Any ideas ?

thanks in advance,
   Akiva Sadovski

  +9. Creating a newer driver
  +   ===
  +
  +   This quick HOWTO explains how to create a new driver using v4l-dvb
  +   tree.
  +
  +   The v4l-dvb tree have a the following basic structure:
  +   /
  +   |-- Documentation
  +   |   |-- dvb == DVB drivers documentation
  +   |   `-- video4linux == V4L drivers documentation
  +   |-- drivers
  +   |   `-- media
  +   |   |-- common  == Common stuff, like IR
  +   |   |-- dvb == DVB only drivers
  +   |   |-- radio   == V4L Radio only drivers
  +   |   `-- video   == V4L Analog TV  (plus radio and/or
  +   |   DVB) drivers
  +   `-- include
  +   |-- linux   == V4L userspace API files
  +   |   `-- dvb == DVB userspace API files
  +   `-- media   == V4L internal API files
  +
  +   9.1 - simple drivers
  +   
  +
  +   For very simple drivers that have only one .c and one .h file, the
  +   recommended way is not to create a newer directory, but keep the
  +   driver into an existing one.
  +
  +   Assumming that the will be V4L+DVB, the better place for it to be is 
  under
  +   /linux/drivers/media/video. Assumming also that the newer driver
  +   will be called as newdevice, you need to do:
  +
  +   a) add at /linux/drivers/media/video/Kconfig something like:
 
 
 What makes this a better place ? IMO, it is upto the author where he
 wants to put it.

This is the basic way where all newer drivers are being added. Of
course, this quick howto doesn't cover all cases. It just helps newbies
to start working with v4l-dvb.

Notice: Please avoid keeping linuxtv-commits at C/C. The list should be

To reset, use CA_RESET. Since the CiMax just follows EN50221, the
device specifies that the modules are daisy chained according to
EN50221, see page 16 of the CiMax datasheet. (Don't know whether you
have the same datasheet, what i have is Rev A, 7-Sep-01)

See also 5.4.4 en50221. Also A.2.2.1.

But i didn't really follow this part, if you mean the Hot Insertion
feature on the CIMAx, just add in flag to say ca-flags (you need to
define the flag though) and just do the code run conditionally based
on the flag, say something like DVB_CA_EN50221_HOT_INSERT to
conditionally enable the Reset code in dvb_ca_en50221.

That would help ? Is that what you were asking ?


and I don't want to put any chip-wide initialization code to driver's

device specific code has to go into the device specific driver alone.

the attached patch gets rid of it.

When an unknown key code is received, it is not eaten and the module
keeps yelling about it using printk()s. A bunch of times per second.
Until the next valid key code is received. And this happens as soon as I
use any unsupported device (like power on/off my surround system). The
Nova-T IR receiver gets the IR code by accident and as a result the
module starts screaming.

I'm not sure but this screaming possibly killed (rebooted) my box as
well. I applied the new code, tested it for a few hours, and then went
to bed last night. When I woke up the box had rebooted (no mentions of
why in syslog, though). After applying the attached patch, my system has
been stable (about a 10 hours by now).

I'm still not entirely satisfied with the RC solution for dvb-usb-remote
(translating with a hardcoded list in the module and then sending
(sometimes in-)appropriate key codes in to the kernel as though entered
by the keyboard. Anyone know if it would be difficult to deliver the
received key codes through a netlink device (or similar) that can be
read by lircd? I'd prefer a solution that doesn't require a patch
+recompile for each new IR thingy I use

My system has one Nova-T Stick (2040:7050), one Nova-T-500 (2040:9950),
and one Nova-TD Stick (2040:9580).

[linux-dvb] freecom TM6000 tridvid.sys file

2007-08-01 Thread Vasanth M
Hello,
I have a freecom hybrid DVB-T (TM6000 chipset).
http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/TM6000

To install this I require a file tridvid.sys from the installation disk, but 
unfortunately I seem to have lost the disk and the freecom website do not have 
that file in their updated driver...

I would be thankful if some one could please email me that particular file to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

any help is appreciated..

regards
Vasanth

Manu,

could you be a bit more precise
about _your personal_ troll list?

Since I suspect you are still sending unrequested mails, announced as
PRIVATE NOTES, behind the visible lines, like you did with me, when I
asked, why you always cry like mad in case something comes in from v4l?

The most evil troll stuff I have ever seen came exactly from you.
Most evil, because not even public, and leaving only one choice, agree
with your personal feelings or die.

We have discussed on this internally, since you have been on the trip
who rules by the sword, must die by the sword and found all sort of
excuses for you, and hoped again ...

Like I did after you firstly were going out of any known rules, waiting
for about six weeks, if that could ever be really be meant serious ...

Nothing happened!

Mike, as I know now, abused by you for your run against Mauro, as said
already, you could have had it all during long previously, has not seen
any excuse until now, not to talk about Mauro.  

You did not talk to the v4l maintainer for one year, just some
misunderstanding on bttv v4l2 conversion was enough for that, you had
all time before to do something better on it, it was wide open.

YOU HAVE NOT BEEN SEEN AT ALL.

After all, it seems to me that you are exactly the backstage politician
you claim others to be.

There is _nobody_ else on linux-dvb, who ever behaved like that.

Cheers,
Hermann

Re: [linux-dvb] How could I compile dvb-usb-cxusb module out of the kernel source.

2007-08-01 Thread lwtbenben
You run make menuconfig in the v4l-dvb/v4l directory and you select the 
Conexant USB2.0 hybrid reference design support only, and it will 
compile.

Yeah. This works.
But when I add mydriver.c in the directory linux/driver/media/dvb/dvb-usb and 
exec the same command, some errors occured.
The script make_myconfig.pl just can't work properly.

[linux-dvb] [RFC PATCH] Choose dvb adapter number with a driver specific module option

2007-08-01 Thread Janne Grunau
Hi,

Dynamic loading of modules by udev on startup (aka coldplugging) doesn't
result in deterministic dvb adapter numbers.

V4L drivers have the {radio|vbi|video}_nr module options to allocate
static minor numbers per driver.
Attached patch adds a similiar mechanism to the dvb subsystem. To avoid
problems with device unplugging and repluging each driver holds
a DVB_MAX_ADAPTER long array of the preffered order of adapter numbers.
options dvb-usb-dib0700 adapter_nr=7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 would result in a
reversed allocation of adapter numbers.
With adapter_nr=2,5 it tries first to get adapter number 2 and 5. If both
are already in use it will allocate the lowest free adapter number.

Besides following changes in dvb-core and dvb-usb core the patch adds to
all drivers 

+static int adapter_nr[] = {[0 ... (DVB_MAX_ADAPTERS - 1)] = DVB_UNSET };
+module_param_array(adapter_nr, int, NULL, 0444);
+MODULE_PARM_DESC(adapter_nr,DVB adapter numbers);

and modifies the dvb_register_adapter call. Full patch is attached as
compressed file.

With the exception of dvb-usb I have just added the paramter to the module
with the dvb_register_adapter() call. budget-core and videobuf-dvb are
affected for example. I'll push the option to the driver which uses these
modules after we reached consent on the approach.

Janne

Re: [linux-dvb] Doubt about the file: dvb-usb-dvb.c

2007-08-01 Thread lwtbenben
a) create a newer dir with your driver: 
   /linux/drivers/media/dvb/mydriver
b) Under /linux/drivers/media/dvb/mydriver:
   create a Kconfig and a Makefile 
   You may use another Kconfig/Makefile as example (for example, pluto2)
c) Add your driver directory at /linux/drivers/media/dvb/Makefile:
   obj-y:= dvb-core/ frontends/ ttpci/ ttusb-dec/ ttusb-budget/ 
 b2c2/ bt8xx/ cinergyT2/ dvb-usb/ pluto2/ mydriver/
d) Add a source line for your driver at /linux/drivers/media/dvb/Kconfig:
   source drivers/media/dvb/mydriver/Kconfig
After that, you will be able to use v4l-dvb makefile to compile your
driver.  With
   make help
you'll see some useful syntax that may help your development.

Dear Mauro:
I had my problem solved last week, thank you all the same for clear answer.
And I compile my module in the 2.6.20-15 kernel. 
Now I want to compile the module in v4l-dvb tree, I did it this way:
I put my usb adapter program named usb-adapter.c in 
linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb, and I modified the Makefile and Kconfig to add 
my  usb adapter module;
I put my frontend program named my-frontend.c in 
linux/drivers/media/dvb/frontend and I modified the Makefile and Kconfig to add 
my frontend module;
But the v4l-dvb tree can't compile.
There is some problem with the script make_myconfig.pl.
Do you have any advice about this issue?

Isn't the usual response to write some udev rules to set the name
based on device characteristics?  Thus taking the naming policy
out of the module and into userspace.

Since you're defining a numbering order when you load the module, if
you have 2 or more devices which use the module then your solution
doesn't solve the problem of controlling the numbers because it
depends which device the kernel finds first. With udev, if there's
some way to distinguish between two of the same device, then rules
can be written to set the name of each.
