Hi, I'm attempting to bring up a PVR-150 in a machine that already had a running PVR-250. Now neither card appears to be working. Wath TV is a dark screen with some wavey lines in it. No audio. Is there any known reason this cannot work? I can try a newer (or older) version of ivtv if there's a good reason to do so.
Here's the card info. The two are very similar. (0003 vs. 0009) Which is which? 0000:01:01.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 0003 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 22 Memory at f0000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2 0000:01:02.0 Multimedia video controller: Internext Compression Inc iTVC16 (CX23416) MPEG-2 Encoder (rev 01) Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc.: Unknown device 0009 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 17 Memory at f4000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2 dmesg is very messy now. I've asked about this message before: ivtv: Encoder Firmware may be buggy, use version 0x02040011 but don't think I got an answer. Is it contributing to the problems? dmesg output: Linux video capture interface: v1.00 ivtv: ==================== START INIT IVTV ==================== ivtv: version 0.3.6 (p) loading ivtv: Linux version: 2.6.11-gentoo-r11 preempt PENTIUM4 gcc-3.3 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: Unknown card: vendor/device: 4444/0016, subsystem vendor/device: 0070/0003ivtv: Defaulting to WinTV PVR 250 card ivtv: Please mail the vendor/device and subsystem vendor/device IDs and what kind of ivtv: card you have to the ivtv-devel mailinglist: http://sourceforge.net/projects/ivtv ivtv: Prefix your subject line with [UNKNOWN CARD]. ivtv: Found an iTVC16 based chip ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:01:01.0[A] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 22 ivtv: Unreasonably low latency timer, setting to 64 (was 32) ivtv: XXX PCI device: 0x2570 vendor: 0x8086 tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 26032, rev = C199, serial# = 8095579 tveeprom: tuner = TCL 2002N 5H (idx = 99, type = 50) tveeprom: tuner fmt = NTSC(M) (eeprom = 0x08, v4l2 = 0x00001000) tveeprom: audio_processor = TDA9850 (type = 3) ivtv: i2c attach [client=tveeprom[50],ok] ivtv: Tuner Type 50, Tuner formats 0x00001000, Radio: yes, Model 0x008d1659, Revision 0x00000000 ivtv: NTSC tuner detected ivtv: Radio detected tuner: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones tuner: chip found at addr 0xc2 i2c-bus ivtv i2c driver #0 ivtv: i2c attach [client=(tuner unset),ok] saa7115: starting probe for adapter ivtv i2c driver #0 (0x10005) ivtv: Encoder revision: 0x02040024 ivtv: Encoder Firmware may be buggy, use version 0x02040011 ivtv: Configuring WinTV PVR 250 card with 5 streams ivtv: Registered v4l2 device for encoder MPEG minor 0 ivtv: Create DMA encoder MPEG stream: 128 x 32768 buffers (4096KB total) ivtv: Registered v4l2 device for encoder YUV minor 32 ivtv: Create DMA encoder YUV stream: 194 x 10800 buffers (2048KB total) ivtv: Registered v4l2 device for encoder VBI minor 224 ivtv: Create DMA encoder VBI stream: 240 x 8736 buffers (2048KB total) ivtv: Registered v4l2 device for encoder PCM audio minor 24 ivtv: Create DMA encoder PCM audio stream: 455 x 4608 buffers (2048KB total) ivtv: Registered v4l2 device for encoder radio minor 64 ivtv: Create encoder radio stream ivtv: Setting Tuner 50 tuner: type set to 50 (TCL 2002N) by ivtv i2c driver #0 ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found for command 1074029571! ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found for command 1074029572! ivtv: Setting audio matrix to input 3, output 1 ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found for command 1074294033! ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found for command 2150135312! ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found for command 1076393489! ivtv: Switching standard to NTSC. ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x40 not found for command 1076917763! ivtv: i2c client addr: 0x21 not found for command 1074029571! ivtv: Initialized WinTV PVR 250, card #0 ivtv: Autodetected WinTV PVR 150 card ivtv: Found an iTVC16 based chip ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:01:02.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 ivtv: Unreasonably low latency timer, setting to 64 (was 32) ivtv: XXX PCI device: 0x2570 vendor: 0x8086 ivtv: ivtv_enc_thread: pid = 4658, itv = 0xdf9e4620 ivtv: ivtv_enc_vbi_thread: pid = 4659, itv = 0xdf9e4620 tveeprom: Hauppauge: model = 32062, rev = C182, serial# = 7913638 tveeprom: tuner = LG TAPC H791F (idx = 82, type = 39) tveeprom: tuner fmt = NTSC(M) (eeprom = 0x08, v4l2 = 0x00001000) tveeprom: audio_processor = MSP3445 (type = 12) ivtv: i2c attach [client=tveeprom[50],ok] tuner: chip found at addr 0xc2 i2c-bus ivtv i2c driver #1 ivtv: i2c attach [client=(tuner unset),ok] saa7115: starting probe for adapter ivtv i2c driver #1 (0x10005) saa7115: detecting saa7115 client on address 0x42 saa7115: writing init values ivtv: i2c attach [client=saa7115[50],ok] saa7115: status: (1E) 0x00, (1F) 0x40 msp34xx: ivtv version msp34xx: init: chip=MSP3445G-B8, has NICAM support, simple (D) mode, simpler (G) no-thread mode msp34xx: $Id$ compiled on: Jun 24 2005 08:27:09 ivtv: i2c attach [client=MSP3445G-B8,ok] ivtv: Tuner Type 39, Tuner formats 0x00001000, Radio: yes, Model 0x008d1612, Revision 0x00000000 ivtv: Radio detected cx25840: starting probe for adapter ivtv i2c driver #0 (0x10005) cx25840: detecting cx25840 client on address 0x88 cx25840: cx25841-23 found.
