[ivtv-devel] Static on PVR-250

[Dan Bartels]

I’m getting nothing but static on my PVR-250.  I think that it started when I switched to the 2.6.10-1.737_FC3 kernel, but I’m not entirely sure (Didn’t watch TV or check it for a while in there.)  But it used to work fine, before all that.  Changing channels (either through Myth TV or ptune-gui.pl) doesn’t seem to do anything.  I have searched enough of the list to know about the “alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv,” and while that did help the tuner detection issue (I had that as well) it changed nothing with the static on every channel.  (Through the RCA jack, the card works fine, it works completely under windows XP)   I have a PVR-250 with the conexant cx23416-12 chip. The tuner module has a sticker that says NTSC/NTSC-J 32032 Rev B182. © 2002 Hauppage computer works.   I am currently using the “ivtv-0.3.2c-66.rhfc3.at” rpm from atrpms, but I have tried the 0.2 and the ck100zz versions as well, with no luck.   ---/etc/modprobe.conf # ivtv modules setup alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c alias char-major-81 videodev alias char-major-81-0 ivtv alias tveeprom tveeprom-ivtv   --- dmesg ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== ivtv: version 0.3.2 (c) loading ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.10-1.741_FC3 686 REGPARM 4KSTACKS gcc-3.4 ivtv: In case of problems please include the debug info ivtv: between the START INIT IVTV and END INIT IVTV lines when ivtv: mailing the ivtv-devel mailinglist. ivtv: Autodetected WinTV PVR 250 card ivtv: Found an iTVC16 based chip ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:00:09.0[A] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10 ivtv: Unreasonably low latency timer, setting to 64 (was 32) ivtv: VIA PCI device: 0x0305 vendor: 0x1106 lirc_i2c: chip found @ 0x18 (Hauppauge IR) ivtv: i2c attach [client=Hauppauge IR,ok] lirc_dev: lirc_register_plugin:sample_rate: 10 tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 32032, rev = B182, serial# = 2832436 tveeprom: tuner = LG TAPC H791F (idx = 82, type = 39) tveeprom: tuner fmt = NTSC(M) (eeprom = 0x08, v4l2 = 0x00001000) tveeprom: audio_processor = MSP3440 (type = 11) ivtv: i2c attach [client=tveeprom[0],ok] ivtv: Tuner Type 39, Tuner formats 0x00001000, Radio: yes, Model 0x00891612, Revision 0x00000000 ivtv: NTSC tuner detected ivtv: Radio detected tuner: chip found at addr 0xc2 i2c-bus ivtv i2c driver #0 ivtv: i2c attach [client=(tuner unset),ok] saa7115: starting probe for adapter SMBus Via Pro adapter at 5000 (0x0) saa7115: starting probe for adapter ivtv i2c driver #0 (0x10005) saa7115: detecting saa7115 client on address 0x42 saa7115: writing init values ivtv: i2c attach [client=saa7115[0],ok] saa7115: status: (1E) 0x48, (1F) 0xc0 msp34xx: init: chip=MSP3448W-B3 +nicam +simple +simpler +radio mode=simple ivtv: i2c attach [client=MSP3448W-B3,ok] msp3410: daemon started ivtv: Encoder revision: 0x02040011 ivtv: Configuring WinTV PVR 250 card with 5 streams ivtv: Create DMA stream 0 using 256 16384 byte buffers  4194304 kbytes total ivtv: Registered v4l2 device, streamtype 0 minor 0 ivtv: Create DMA stream 1 ivtv: Registered v4l2 device, streamtype 1 minor 32 ivtv: Create stream 2 using 40 52224 byte buffers  2097152 kbytes total ivtv: Registered v4l2 device, streamtype 2 minor 224 ivtv: Create DMA stream 3 using 455 4608 byte buffers  2097152 kbytes total ivtv: Registered v4l2 device, streamtype 3 minor 24 ivtv: Create stream 4 ivtv: Registered v4l2 device, streamtype 4 minor 64 ivtv: Setting Tuner 39 tuner: type set to 39 (LG NTSC (newer TAPC series)) by ivtv i2c driver #0 saa7115: decoder set input (4) saa7115: now setting Composite input ivtv: Setting audio matrix to input 3, output 1 ivtv: Switching standard to NTSC. saa7115: decoder set norm NTSC saa7115: set audio: 0x01 ivtv: Initialized WinTV PVR 250, card #0 ivtv: ====================  END INIT IVTV  ====================   Thanks in advance, --Dan
