Hi. Well, I must admit, my freevo is not fully installed after a month and it is really frustrating. My fault - I bought a nice, great looking case however the devices integrated on the MOBO are so new that they are not fully supported yet. So I went through all kinds of hell with every single piece of HW I have - starting with LAN card, then WiFi then ... oh, ATI Radeon, geeez! TV-OUT, argh!!! But I would like to ask you about DVB-T support. This is my first multimedia/"desktop" install in Linux so consider me n00b in this field. I am so happy you don't need all this stuff to get Apache/Samba/Postfix and other server software running :) that is sooo easy compared to all this :) Anyway. I can't make my DVB-T card working under Video4Linux. The devices /dev/video0 neither /dev/video/video0 are not created. I loaded the modules, scanned the channels, can do TZAP <channel> and then watch the TV in "mplayer -v /dev/dvb/dvr0". But V4L devices are not created.. Details (do not know if relevant, ask for more if needed): a) Kernel: Linux sorry 2.6.8.1 #1 Mon Sep 27 22:23:55 CEST 2004 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux using devfs b) lspci, DVB card: 0000:02:09.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01) Device: 02:09.0 Class: Multimedia controller Vendor: Philips Semiconductors Device: SAA7146 SVendor: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH SDevice: Technotrend-Budget / Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T DVB card Rev: 01 c) lsmod: dvb_ttpci 75660 0 ves1820 7044 0 grundig_29504_491 5508 0 grundig_29504_401 7428 0 tda1004x 16904 1 tvaudio 20108 0 tuner 18064 0 saa7146_vv 44288 1 dvb_ttpci video_buf 16516 1 saa7146_vv v4l1_compat 13188 1 saa7146_vv v4l2_common 5120 1 saa7146_vv videodev 7296 1 saa7146_vv uhci_hcd 27792 0 evdev 7552 0 budget_ci 7680 0 budget_core 6276 1 budget_ci dvb_core 74280 7 dvb_ttpci,ves1820,grundig_29504_491,grundig_29504_401,tda1004x,budget_ci,budget_core saa7146 15140 4 dvb_ttpci,saa7146_vv,budget_ci,budget_core ttpci_eeprom 2432 2 dvb_ttpci,budget_core 3c59x 34088 0 radeonfb 48040 0 i2c_algo_bit 8584 1 radeonfb i2c_core 18448 4 tvaudio,tuner,radeonfb,i2c_algo_bit d) ls /dev/dvb/adapter0/ demux0 dvr0 frontend0 net0 e) dmesg (interesting part) saa7146: register extension 'budget_ci dvb'. saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem d8e32000 (revision 1, irq 11) (0x13c2,0x1011).

I know this is pretty much common card and should be able to figure it out myself but most probably am already blind to read even correct informations. So here are my stupid questions: a) should be the V4L devices created at all with this card? b) should not be there more under /dev/dvb/adapter0/ ? c) what modules should I load/what should I do to get the V4L devices created? I am really tired, spent many sleepless nights during last month after I get home from work. My girlfriend starts to hate me and she hates freevo already no matter how good PR I do ;) So, please, if anyone could help, save me and my freevo at home :) Thanks in advance for any help. Frustrated and tired Dale |
