What is the status of the hauppauge dvb-t card? I read on various sites that the tuner part isn't implemented, but google throws up several entries on this mailing list that say it should work.
Following one such message on the use of dvbtune I have struggled to get something working, but it's not responding (the card works OK in Windows). 'make insmod' gives the following messages, which look OK: Feb 6 23:48:46 spock kernel: i2c-core.o: i2c core module Feb 6 23:48:46 spock kernel: Linux video capture interface: v1.00 Feb 6 23:48:46 spock kernel: i2c-core.o: driver VES1893 DVB demodulator registered.

However dvbtune then doesn't work. dvbtune 0.1 gives: tuning DVB-T to 754166000 Channel tuned FE_FAILURE_EV Event: iFrequency: 3 Bit error rate: 65535 Signal strength: 0 SNR: 0 FE_STATUS: FE_HAS_POWER FE_HAS_SIGNAL Nothing to read from fd_pat Nothing to read from fd_sdt <transponder type="T" freq="754166000"></transponder> And dvbtune 0.2 gives: spock:/home/tmh/dvbtune-0.1/scripts# dvbtune -f 754166 -i FD 4: SEC DEVICE (warning) : Invalid argument <transponder type="S" freq="754166" srate="0" polarity="" > Nothing to read from fd_pat Nothing to read from fd_sdt </transponder> I never get any channels back from either of them. I think the frequency numbers are right for my transmitter (Winter Hill). As far as I can tell the FE_FAILURE_EV warning is fatal & means that something has gone badly wrong... I don't understand the driver enough to work out what though. Tony -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
