Re: [linux-dvb] Invalid section length or timeout using Kaffeine and Twinhan 102g (aka VP-1022 Rev 2.0?)

2008-01-30 Thread Corey Ashford
Hi again,

I'm reporting back on your suggested fixes.  I tried using the dummy
channels on Kaffeine 0.8.5 (what's shipped with Fedora 8), and that
didn't appear to work; the scan would still stop and I'd get no
channels.

So I downloaded Kaffeine 0.8.6 source and built it, making the change
you suggested.  That does work!  Although I'm still not able to get any
channels on the 12180 V 3 transponder on AMC3-87W.  This appears to
be because that multiplex doesn't have a Service Description Table. 
Kaffeine apparently doesn't have any code to synthesize names when it
doesn't find one of these.  That would be a nice feature to add.

I was able to get channel names on another transponder 11716 H 4859.
The names are coming out like TSID:3-SID:1.  

So I'm not sure what to do about not getting channel names on some of
these multiplexes.  Perhaps I just got lucky and picked one of the rare
multiplexes with no SDT.  Or maybe this is fairly common and I will run
into it often.

Incidentally, it appears that kaffeine looks for a NIT section too
(0x10), and complains if it's not there.

Thanks for your help.  Let me know if you make some changes to
synthesize channel names for this sort of multiplex.  I'd be happy to
test out the changes :)

  There is partial solution with kaffeine-0.8.6.
  Create 3 dummy channels, one for each transponder with e.g. audio
 pid=100.
  Then tune to one channel, open the scan dialog and start scanning.
 It will
  scan the current transponder, and should find the channels.
  Do it for each dummy channel.
 
 In case you are compiling kaffeine, the fix is easy :
 Edit kaffeine/src/input/dvb/dvbsi.cpp, line 751:
 
 change :
 
 if ( !getSection( 0x11, 0x42 ) ) //SDT
   continue;
 
 to :
 
 getSection( 0x11, 0x42 )   //SDT
 
 
 This is untested, but should work.

I have just built and started using the new HG, the unknown code problem

it receiving codes ;)

It all seems much more stable, quicker to tune etc.

Thanks for all your work, and others who contributed the patches.

If you're not going to use the sensor, disable the RC polling by adding
the following line to your modprobe.conf:

options dvb_usb disable_rc_polling=1

That's a cleaner solution in my opinion.

There is a patch in the wiki for this issue. the codes will still be
there, but there will be no flooding. It works well.

This patch has been announced as an ugly hack by its author, though,
which probably explains why it didn't get merged.

I'm really not the right person to do any coding, believe me, I regret
that fact.

Is there a person around willing to take a lokk?

Thanks for the info :)   It would appear then that the 12180 V 3
multiplex doesn't contain a PAT either, because I get no names at all

I might try my hand at writing some code that does this, but I've never

[linux-dvb] DiSEqC switch blinded by KNC tuner [was: KNC1 TV Star DVB-S tuning problem]

2008-01-30 Thread Doru Marin
Hello,

I changed my Gigaswitch 11/20 multiswitch with other model and instantly 
my card got working.
First I thought that is a DiSEqC error, so I had to check with other 
switch model. And, surprisingly, it start to work.
So, I reverted back and tried to figure out what's happen. After several 
tests, I concluded that it works fine with any vertical channels, low/hi 
switch and even sat switch.
So I figured out that the horizontal requests cause the troubles. I 
measured  the output on tuner and  I'm getting 13.5V for vertical and 
19.2V for horizontal.
I changed in the stv0299 code and I'm lowering the power to 13V during 
DiSEqC command.With this hack, I'm successfully tune on horizontal 
channels, too.
But this is a hack and doesn't sound right. According to specs, the 
voltage switch should occur before DiSEqC commands.
The older KNC type card uses stv0299 too and it behaves better with my 
switch. And also gets 19V on output.

Finally, it seems that the KNC TV Star card blinds my switch.
Any ideea how to fix this without hacking the stv0299 driver ?

Thanks in advance,
Doru.

 I got two KNC DVB-S cards, an older one (1894:0010) and a new KNC TV 
 STAR model, (1894:0016) on  FC6 running last kernel (2.6.24).
 The old card works fine, I have no problems with it. The second one, 
 after I tune o a channel on a vertical polarity, doesn't want to tune on 
 any horizontal channel anymore:

 # szap -c ./astra.conf -a0 BBC World
 reading channels from file './astra.conf'
 zapping to 3 'BBC World':
 sat 0, frequency = 11597 MHz V, symbolrate 2200, vpid = 0x00a3, apid 
 = 0x005c sid = 0x2742
 using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
 status 03 | signal d9a0 | snr 965d | ber db00 | unc  |
 status 1f | signal e100 | snr dd9d | ber 5e00 | unc  | 
 FE_HAS_LOCK
 ...
 #  szap -c ./astra.conf -a0 ZDF
 reading channels from file './astra.conf'
 zapping to 161 'ZDF':
 sat 0, frequency = 11953 MHz H, symbolrate 2750, vpid = 0x006e, apid 
 = 0x0078 sid = 0x6d66
 using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
 status 03 | signal b3e0 | snr 9be2 | ber 9e00 | unc  |
 status 03 | signal b3d1 | snr a71c | ber ff30 | unc  |

 Back to BBC World, it locks fine. but no chance to lock on ZDF anymore.
 If I replug the sat cable, it starts to work again, until I switch again 
 on a V channel.
 I checked the polarity switch, the card delivers 19.2V, so there is no 
 power problem.
 The difference between cards is the tuner, the new one uses a Philips 
 SD1878.
 As long as the first card works like charm, I assume the the sat switch 
 works fine.

 Any idea what goes wrong, anyone ?

 Regards,
 Doru

Re: [linux-dvb] [PATCH] XC5000 tuner improvement/clean up

2008-01-30 Thread John Massengale
On Jan 27, 2008 7:58 AM, Timothy E. Krantz [EMAIL PROTECTED]
wrote:

  Hi, all,
 
  This patch improves the performance of the xc5000 tuner driver.
 
  1. Now, only one xc5000_priv struct is used for each physical tuner
 instead of one for each attach (analog/digital). This
  avoids potential
 inconsistence such as the status of the firmware loading changed by
 one instance of the driver and the other instance not
  being aware of it.
 It is based on the tuner-xc2028.c code.
 
  2. Removed a layer of function call for xc_reset().
 
  3. Replaced all calls to xc_wait() by a direct msleep() call
  (which is all
 xc_wait does).
 
  4. Changed the xc_wait(100) in xc_write_reg() to msleep(5).
  The comment
 says wait 5 ms, was the 100 a typo? In any case, this improved the
 tuner performace greatly (much faster lock).
 
  5. Added a module parameter allow_shutdown, which is defaulted to 0.
 If enabled, the xc5000_sleep() function will indeed shutdown the
 tuner device. On the 800i, this is fine with analog, but digital
 still cannot get a lock after shutdown and reinitialized, with no
 apparent error message. Please test this on other cards.
 
  6. Some minor clean up.
 
  The patch is tested on the Pinnacle 800i. Before the patch,
  tvtime and azap works with analog/digital tv, but with very
  slow tuning and locking. Mythtv had problems with analog tv
  frequently (with the errors are encountered during video
  play back message). Most likely, that was due to the slow
  tuning of the xc5000.
 
  After the patch, both analog and digital tv saw great improvements.
  Mythtv can consistently lock in both analog and digital
  channels. I haven't run into the video play back errors yet
  so far after torturing mythtv with channel changing and
  switching between different input source/multiple cards
  several dozen times.
 
  I still could not get audio (analog) in mythtv, but I suspect
  that is a problem with my mythtv setup rather than the driver.
 
  Comments are welcome and please test and post your experience. Thanks!

 Sir,
 Prior to your patch when using my 800i each time I tried to go from  an
 analog to a digital station or vice versa using mythtv I got the errors
 encountered during video playback issue.

 With this patch installed going from analog to digital works fine for me
 but
 switching from digital to analog still results in the same error.

 Channel lock is MUCH faster.

 Thanks for your efforts!

 Tim

I was having an issue getting the Pinnacle 800i to pick up analog cable
channels so I patched the source with this patch and compiled/installed this
version of the driver and I am still having this problem (The ATSC/QAM
tuning works perfectly, the remote is working too). I have not tried through
XAWTV yet, but through MythTV I can see it tune the channel clearly for
about a second, then it fades into colored static. I know the source is OK,
because I have an Hauppauge Wintv-USB2 hooked up that tunes the analog cable
channels with no problem. I had the analog working before so I am not sure
what happened now. Wrong module loaded or something? When scanning for
channels it is definitely a LOT faster. I also have a Kworld 110 ATSC card
installed as well, I wonder if it is conflicting somehow? Anybody have any
thoughts?

Even if the analog tuning starts working again, there was some discussion
about what would happen if MythTV or some other app tried to use both
sources to record two different shows? Is that really an issue?

Thanks!

John

  This is based on the multi-frontend patches originally from the

 Yes. based on your work  . If you check the cx8802_dvb_advise_acquire it is 
 in quite a mess at the moment for the CX88_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR4000 so needs 
 fixing for the multi frontend. Someone who knows more about how to reset the 
 chips can fix it up a little. It boots but you get a few errors :-)

 Subject: [linux-dvb] DiSEqC switch blinded by KNC tuner [was: KNC1 TV
   Star DVB-S tuning problem]
 To: linux-dvb@linuxtv.org
 Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
 
 Hello,
 
 I changed my Gigaswitch 11/20 multiswitch with other model and instantly 
 my card got working.
 First I thought that is a DiSEqC error, so I had to check with other 
 switch model. And, surprisingly, it start to work.
 So, I reverted back and tried to figure out what's happen. After several 
 tests, I concluded that it works fine with any vertical channels, low/hi 
 switch and even sat switch.
 So I figured out that the horizontal requests cause the troubles. I 
 measured  the output on tuner and  I'm getting 13.5V for vertical and 
 19.2V for horizontal.
 I changed in the stv0299 code and I'm lowering the power to 13V during 
 DiSEqC command.With this hack, I'm successfully tune on horizontal 
 channels, too.
 But this is a hack and doesn't sound right. According to specs, the 
 voltage switch should occur before DiSEqC commands.
 The older KNC type card uses stv0299 too and it behaves better with my 
 switch. And also gets 19V on output.
 
 Finally, it seems that the KNC TV Star card blinds my switch.
 Any ideea how to fix this without hacking the stv0299 driver ?
 
 Thanks in advance,
 Doru.

  on a V channel.
  I checked the polarity switch, the card delivers 19.2V, so there is no 
  power problem.
  The difference between cards is the tuner, the new one uses a Philips 
  SD1878.
  As long as the first card works like charm, I assume the the sat switch 
  works fine.
 
  Any idea what goes wrong, anyone ?
 
  Regards,
  Doru

[linux-dvb] Bugfix for make_atsc_chanconf.pl

2008-01-30 Thread Noah Magram

Hello all,

The antennaweb.org scraper make_atsc_chanconf.pl is broken due to 
changes on the antennaweb.org site, specifically the need for cookies 
and an additional mapping page that gets displayed when only a zipcode 
is entered.


The latest in CVS gives this error as a result:

No such field 'stationXml' at ./make_atsc_chanconf.pl line 62

I have attached a patch that gets it working again.

Best,

[linux-dvb] What is the MAC of a DVB card?

2008-01-30 Thread Andrea
Hi,

I've always wanted to ask, but always forgotten...

I've got a Hauppauge WinTV NOVA T USB2 and it has a MAC address.

What is it useful for? Was it an attempt to access the card over the network?
Just curiosity.

Re: [linux-dvb] What is the MAC of a DVB card?

2008-01-30 Thread Josep Colom Ikuno
I´m quite new to DVB, but my guess is that it´s the dvbnet device. It´s
possible to receive IP services throught DVB, so I suppose it´s the net
device (you also have a frontend and a demux under /dev/dvb/adapterX/) that
you can use for  that.
