Re: [linux-dvb] cx878_41 ...help needed with Mercurial
thanks Uwe I almost have it working with bttv however what I am looking for is help with Mrercurial and merging the cx_878 driver into my copy of the master repo so that I can fiddle with that instead of wasting time with something obsolete. can you ( or anyone else )help with mercurial?

Mike ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb Mike, If I remember quite well your card has a cx24106 tuner / frontend. That means: 1. Even if bttv recognizes it, it will be unsupported, as a new frontend driver would be necessary to be written, and Conexant is not very helpful in those cases. 2. Even if it is recognized by bttv, neither the pure Mercurial tree would help, nor the Mercurial tree with the implemented cx878 tree. 3. As I told you already, the cx878 driver runs, but it is not finished yet. So it does not help at all to fiddle around with it. You won't neither get a picture nor sound even if you were running a supported card. 4. I already asked you to send in a dmesg, but you simply ignored that request. Why please?

Re: [linux-dvb] Compro VideoMate DVB-T300 remote control repeating buttons
Hi.. I'm sorry to report that the remote isn't working flawless, it's better but not good enough.

Has anyone else experienced it and does anyone know a solution? I press a key on the remote - let's call it A (it can be any key). Later I press another key - let's call it B. On the second key press, LIRC will recognize AB - ie it will repeat the previous key, immediately followed by the key just pressed. This happens regardless of the length of time between key presses, even overnight.

In other words, DVB-C was 160 MHz when it should have been near 200 MHz. Anyway, this http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb?cmd=changeset;node=e7c424bbf9aa;style=gitweb change is wrong anyway and should be reverted. You're right, reverting this change will make it go from 160 MHz to 200 MHz. It still looks to me like the ttusb-budget driver has the bug in the DVB-C td1316 tuner code, as it switches at 236.13 Mhz where as all the other td1316 code uses 195 ~ 200 MHZ as a switch point. Yes, the bug is still there in the ttusb-budget tda1316 tuner code. My patch (it wasn't really a patch :-( ) was applied to the wrong file. One thing I don't really understand. Why do we have to add the IF frequency to determine the frequency for the band switch (it's a long time since I repaired televisions)? No reason, it shouldn't make any difference. if(x 159) is mathmatically the same as: if((x+36) (159+36)) It's just an arbitrary choice if you should define the bands before or after the IF offset is taken into account. The bug in ttusb-budget looks like it came from someone cutpasting code without taking this into account. When I look in the docs of the tuner, it is written: Low band 49 to 159 MHz Mid band 162 to 444 MHz High band 448 to 862 MHz This is the Channel center frequency including tuning margin. Are the docs available somewhere? I couldn't find them on google. ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
