Category: other Group: 1.5.x svn Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 7 Submitted By: John Molohan (johnmolohan) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Frequency not being set with ivtv 0.7.0 Initial Comment: Hi, Freevo isn't setting the frequency with revision 8248 and ivtv 0.7.0. I can't see where this is failing but I guess that some of the v4l stuff has changed for this version of ivtv. >From freevo's logs I get: tvguide.py (142): TVGUIDE EVENT is MENU_SELECT main.py (465): clear: True Video Opened at /dev/video0 USING STANDARD FREQUENCY: chan="A7", freq="176000" Video Opened at /dev/video0 rc.py (425): register callback: <bound method ChildApp2.poll of <childapp.ChildApp2 instance at 0xb44b5bcc>> rc.py (421): register shutdown callback: <bound method ChildApp2.stop of <childapp.ChildApp2 instance at 0xb44b5bcc>> logging child to "/var/log/freevo/mplayer-stdout.log" logging child to "/var/log/freevo/mplayer-stderr.log" self.t1.isAlive()=True, self.t2.isAlive()=True ChildApp.__init__(), pid=5712, app= /usr/bin/mplayer -vo xv,sdl,x11, -ao oss:/dev/dsp -fs -autosync 100 -nolirc -autoq 100 -screenw 800 -screenh 600 -fs -slave -cache 8192 /dev/video0, poll=-1 main.py (465): clear: True Which all looks good. I've turned on debugging on the ivtv driver and see this in /var/log/messages Sep 27 19:57:28 freevo kernel: ivtv0 info: v4l2 ioctl: set frequency 2816 Mplayer runs but the channel is never tuned. I can set different frequencies manually with ivtv-tune. Any ideas? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Robert Winder (robertwinder) Date: 2006-09-28 20:37 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=195085 Duncan release ivtv 0.7.0 and even 0.7.1 should work with freevo 1.5.4. Using ivtv 0.7.0 myself with freevo 1.5.4 and works fine. From ivtv 0.8.0 new api calls are introduced but you probably don't want to invest time to prepare freevo for the new API. IVTV is constantly changing preparing for kernel inclusion so it's a moving target. IIRC, long time ago, when DEBUG in local_conf.py is enabled some freevo ioctl's fail. I thought this was fixed a while back and did make it into 1.5.4. but n ot sure. John could you try again with DEBUG=0 in local_conf.py and report back. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael Ruelle (mikeruelle) Date: 2006-09-28 20:26 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849534 I can record using the 0.7.0 drivers on gentoo using pretty much a stock 1.5.4 after chaning my input num to zero. but i cannot play live tv ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Duncan Webb (duncanwebb) Date: 2006-09-28 19:30 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=104395 There are a few problems at the moment with some of the ivtv calls. The problem is the API calls have been moved from calls like IVTV_IOC.. into the V4L calls :-(. This means that it is unsafe at the moment to use freevo and *ivtv* drivers greater than the 0.4.x. I have increased the priority of this problem, because as people upgrade the kernel more and more problems will be reported. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Duncan Webb (duncanwebb) Date: 2006-09-28 16:36 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=104395 Will you post the dmesg for ivtv The attached script helps to extract the ivtv stuff to ivtv.log. I'm just checking this against ivtv-0.8.0 and kernel-2.6.18. I found that I hadn't all the new modules being build. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=446895&aid=1566574&group_id=46652 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
