[linux-dvb] DVB-S Stream multiple Channels
Hi there i would like to ask you if it is posible to stream multiple channels with any DVB-S card in linux. do DVB-S have the capability to decode/tune to multiple channels? i know this is not posible at DVB-T because of the tuner, it cannot tune to multiple channels at once, you need dual or more pci cards to do this. what about at DVB-S ?

Re: [linux-dvb] DVB-S Stream multiple Channels
i see ! this creared everything now so DVB-S has a tuner also i thoght it was one frequency for every LNB and every satelite and with this frequency was a carrier for all channels. anyway ok in theory but are there frequencies that cary more than one channel? can someone give me an excample like Patrick gave me on DVB-T if you can speak Greek :-) and give me a nova excample it would be great :-) how can i check it my self within dreambox ? how can i check if one freq has many channels? Thanks in advance your help so far was very precius.

As the other respondents have stated, it *is* possible with DVB-T and DVB-S (and I guess probably possible with any other multiplexed format that is not PID-filtered). You should be able to tune to and record from other channels on the same multiplex if your software allows. This is a key new feature of the soon-to-be-released 0.21 version on MythTV.

[ 3383.815796] wifi0: rx FIFO overrun; resetting First point: this is a DiB7000 based device, not a DiB3000 (which is what the Nova T-500 has on board -- that and a DiB0700 USB bridge). Now what caught my eye was the Now what I find interesting is the disabled by hub (EMI?) message -- the Nova-TD Stick is connected straight to the motherboard USB header via the short (6in) cable that came with the TD. A quick Google search suggests this might be down to heavy data transfer on the USB bus -- the controller can't handle the mass of data (buffer overflow?), so it shuts down the port. The Kernel notices that the controller has killed the port and restarts it. Most of what I've found seems to point to issues with older kernels (2.6.20 RCs mainly) and/or SMP... This suggests putting a hub in the way might help: http://forum.sparkfun.com/viewtopic.php?=p=25520 And this suggests issues surfacing under high I/O / Ethernet activity: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg18069.html Of course, the response was no it's not a kernel bug, it's a bug with your device (which is fair enough because 8/10 times it's NOT the kernel's fault, but in the other 2 times... :-/ ) The same thing was reported here with a DDR (Dance Dance Revolution?) pad... http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/usb-device-ddr-pad-keeps-disconnecting-596445/ The last one is interesting because if MythTV is grabbing the EIT, it'll be spooling the EIT data to RAM, then decoding it and saving it to the database. The database writes involve a good bit of disc access, and the data's going to be spooling in at ~20Mbit/sec from the DVB receiver. I wonder if the combination of lots of USB I/O, disc I/O, etc. is upsetting the kernel, or the USB controller (again - maybe the USB controller's buffer isn't getting flushed in time and is overflowing?) Though that said, 2x20Mbit=40Mbit, which is still well below USB2 High Speed's claimed 480Mbit transfer limit. The data is going to be packed into USB data frames/packets though, and I suspect the chip will be sending it in 188-byte blobs (i.e. full transport stream packets). I'm going to put my USB thumb-hub in the way (in unpowered mode) and see what happens. Given that I've never seen that bug in my syslog before today, and that the Fedora 7 / 8 stock kernels seem to be happy with it, I'd like to say kernel bug, but equally I don't want to place the blame on something that is rarely the cause of a problem. I'm also tempted to unplug the wireless card... that last rx FIFO overrun is making me somewhat suspicious. -- Phil. | (\_/) This is Bunny. Copy and paste Bunny [EMAIL PROTECTED] | (='.'=) into your
Re: [linux-dvb] Nova-T 500 issues - losing one tuner
Hi People, I am writing to inform you of a simple tool I have written to help with this tuner issue. The tool I have made will monitor dmesg output and reset the MythTV Backend if it detects a mt2060 errors. It is not a fix, but a workaround. I have written it for Ubuntu/Debian based systems. I have included the GPL source, feel free to modify as needed. I have it installed on a friend and my Ubuntu based boxes for the last few months and all seems OK. To help with debugging issues, a log is written to: /var/log/mythwatch.log Example output: [24-2-08 19:51:34] --- Started Ver: 0.2.3 --- [27-2-08 07:33:52] ERROR: Disconnect Detected.

[28-2-08 16:51:28] ERROR: Disconnect Detected. [28-2-08 16:51:28] ACTION: Attempting mythtv-backend restart. Note: It is not perfect in that sometimes I loose a tuner without a mt2060 error (very seldom). I am working on the idea of scanning for PAT errors in the MythTV backend log. There seems to be a connection with loosing a tuner and PAT errors. Download URL: http://www.bluboy.f2s.com/develop/MythWatch.tar.gz The tool allows you to record your shows at almost 100% reliability, but with the chance that a reset could lose a few seconds of a recording. This will happen if a reset happends while a show is being recorded.

[linux-dvb] saa7134: Asus Tiger revision 1.0, subsys 1043:4857 improvements
Hi, Harmut, was able to purchase such a device recently. For me it looks like they have been on OEM stuff only previously. The panel for the internal connectors is soldered, the analog audio out is there too and fine. For all what I could look up, it had never support for the PC-39 remote we added for revision 2.0, since all seen so far comes up with gpio init 0, the remote IRQ to sample from is never active. Folks, please report if it comes with that RC5 style remote too. It has a firmware eeprom. It turns out, and some previous reports pointed to it without to become speficic, but contradictions on what the ms driver does on antenna input switching, that this one has only a male FM connector and a female RF connector. So, currently we force people with that card to put the DVB-T antenna input on the male FM-connector, which might be quit inconvenient ... If nobody disagrees, and also my thesis of the not ever delivered remote is right, we should change the auto detection to use card=81, the Philips Tiger reference design you developed on. Cheers, Hermann Stuff currently in that machine. We have also one byte different in the eeprom here.

[linux-dvb] [PATCH] support Cinergy HT USB XE (0ccd:0058)
Hi there! I was totally happy when I found this patch through the wiki. Everything went pretty smooth. After i found the right firmware, scanning in Kaffeine worked for me. But there is another question: This USB Stick is a hybrid one. Due to this i also gave xawtv a try, but after some logfile-watching I noticed the /dev/video0 is missing. Is the current firmware for the tuner only capable of DVB-T or is there a possibilty to get analogue TV working too? I'm asking this because I live in Vienna and I'v got analogue cable here would be nice to record and watch on the PC. Thanks for help. ;) Paul ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
[linux-dvb] B2C2 HW Pid filter not working for transponders with very high SR
Hello! When I try transponders that use SR 3 FEC 7/8 with VDR I get many dropouts. I think there are errors in hw or sw pid filtering. B2C2 chipset only works up to 42mbps the tested transponder has 48 mbps. So the transponder mustn't be opened completely to avoid losing packages. In windows it's working with ALTDVB 2.2 correctly while ALTDVB 2.1 has the same problems as linux + vdr.

[linux-dvb] Leadtek Winfast DTV Dongle Gold
I just bought a Leadtek Winfast DTV Dongle Gold, I thought it would be the same as the DTV Dongle, but apparently it's not, it's a new model fresh of the production line about a month ago. Of course it doesn't work following the instructions for the older model, I even recompiled the kernel so it would be recognised (changed the usb id, similar to changing the 6f00 to 6f01 for the last model), and got the firmware for the old one but it appears that it is quite different. Does anyone have any plans for working on this one? Or can someone give me some pointers about how all this stuff works, especially how to get the firmware out of the windows driver or at least work out which firmware and driver it should be using.
