Hi, I'm using a PVR-150 card as input on my freevobox, and encounter a trouble when shifting from SECAM to PAL. Until now, it didn't bother me so much, but now that the ivtv_xine plugin starts to deal with the TV_VIDEO_GROUP, I really would like to use that functionality.
So here is the trouble : I basically receive via the cable operator 23 tv channels. 21 are in SECAM, and 2 in PAL. I also receive via my ADSL box a bunch of TV programs, all in PAL. These programs come in via the composite input of the PVR-150 card. The best results I have so far : Setting the default standard as secam, I can receive the 21 SECAM channels. If I want to watch one of the ADSL program, I stop freevo (ouch), send the following command : v4l2-ctl --set-standard=pal --set-input=2 then xine --stdctl pwr:///home2/media/tmp/xine-buf- So, everything is ok (At least, until the standard change is incorporated in ivtv_xine_tv.py) If I try to watch one of the pal antenna program, hoverer, I'm not able to do something relevant. For instance, I start via freevo to watch a PAL program. Since Freevo doesn't select pal, I can watch my program, but in a very nice kind of purple... I then stop freevo, do my v4l2-ctl --set-standard=pal and then launch xine, I have the sound (not good) but only a snow storm as picture. Do you have any idea of the reason ? I suspect that in this case, I have something else to do to setup the tuner, but didn't find anything relevant. BTW, my system is running Mandriva 2008, with a 2.6.22-9 kernel, the embedded drivers for the PVR card and the 1.0.3 set of ivtv tools.
