Hi, My card just tuned in here in Helsinki!!!
I made a modification to dvb_frontend.c's fe_zigzag() to always keep the initial frequency. Apparently this gives the card enough time to get a lock on the signal; otherwise the frequency zigzagging loses it. I suppose the signal quality is so bad here, that tuning often takes very long. Or maybe some parameter is not exactly right but still makes tuning possible if one waits long enough? While the card is waiting for a lock, it sometimes gives a brief FrontendStatus of 0x12 (it's otherwise constantly 0x00), which I understand means there is some signal but not a lock. Once finally tuned in, the status is 0x5A, which translates to FE_HAS_POWER | FE_HAS_SIGNAL | FE_HAS_LOCK | FE_HAS_CARRIER | FE_HAS_SYNC. A lot of thanks to Joachim for helping with this. I am no longer in a completely desperate state of mind ;-) -- Kenneth Falck SWelcom Oy R&D Manager Ludviginkatu 6-8 +358 40 5103121 00130 Helsinki, Finland -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
