Re: [linux-dvb] [RFC] add read_signal_strength function to dvb_tuner_ops

2007-09-02 Thread Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Sorry for a late response. I was in transit to participate at Linux Conf
Europe/2007, where I should give a speech about multimidia support on
Linux kernel on this Sunday.

The API seems ok to me. I've added it to v4l-dvb tree.

Guys,

Please test if everything remains correct. Although the patchsets are
not complex, we should take an extra care of testing the affected analog
tuners. From the tests I did up to now, everything seems fine.

Hi Patrick,

 Obviously you are from Brasil. What is your current status in your country

As Carlos said, the commercial transmissions start at the end of this
year.

  How much did they modified Japan's ISDB-T implementation? In 
 which flavour it is/will be used in Brasil? Will it be encrypted only? 

The current definitions by the technical committee are not to allow the
usage of encrypted transmissions (apparently, this is the position of
the most relevant broadcasters). However, there are some pressure to
support encryption. AFAIK, the final decision were not taken yet.

The Japanese specs will be used for modulation and streaming. There are
some intentions to use MPEG4 for video encryption, as an option (the
Japanese std currently defines only MPEG2, AFAIK). The remaining changes
for the Brazilian variant are on higher layers, basically focused on
user interactivity. From Kernel driver POV, I doubt that those
differences would be noticeable.

Cheers,
Mauro.

But I don't see /dev/dvb/adapter0/ca0 for CI module. Is this driver
supports Twinhan 1034 CI interface ?
May be some repository with newer version is available ?

[linux-dvb] New Card: Compro VideoMate S300/S350 DVB-S

2007-09-02 Thread Jan D. Louw
Hi List,

What is needed to add support for the Compro VideoMate S300/S350 DVB-S 
budget card?

Below is the output of 'lspci -v -nn':

07:00.0 Multimedia controller [0480]: Philips Semiconductors SAA7130 
Video Broadcast Decoder [1131:7130] (rev 01)
Subsystem: Compro Technology, Inc. Unknown device [185b:c900]
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 66
Memory at 51104800 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1K]
Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1

The card is uses the Philips SAA7130 PCI bridge with a ZL10313
demodulator/frontend chip, which the DVB wiki says is closely related to 
the mt312 demodulator.

It is not clear to me how to specify the mt312 tuner, and 'modprobe
saa7134-dvb' fails with 'saa7130[0]: frontend initialization failed' 
when loading the wrong (mt532) frontend dependency.

The eeprom output is reported as follows:

saa7130[0]: i2c eeprom 00: 5b 18 00 c9 54 20 1c 00 43 43 a9 1c 55 d2 b2 92

 I am not sure how many pci functions your device has, as far as I
 remember it should only have one if I'm not wrong.
 Although I don't remember if there's an mt352 dvb demodulator used.
 A patch got submitted for the Avermedia M115 to get DVB work too, I'll
 commit it within the next few hours.. this might also enable dvb
 support for your device.

You mean this I guess:

I don't understand the v4l code at all but this adds support for mt352 on the

should i try to duplicate structures/code for e506 and see what happens?

the chances are 50:50, I guess there are just some very small changes

cannot do anything and someone else has to figure out the outstanding

Maybe someone who owns that device in Berlin/Leipzig/(Dresden would

I cannot guarantee that I can get it work, chances aren't too bad
since I got analogue TV (including audio) and radio already work.

 The card is uses the Philips SAA7130 PCI bridge with a ZL10313

I get very similar behaviour from a Compro VideoMate DVB-T200, also

Any pointers gratefully received.

BTW - previously tried in OpenSuSE 10.2, kernel 2.6.18.8 - currently in

I doubt you will be able to load on a different kernel than what it was
built for.

The binary module has licenses from different people and cannot be
relicensed simply. SCM happens to be one of the copyright holders.

Quite a lot of work is needed to get it going.

After the work on multiproto/stb0899 (with regards to dvb-s2 on the
mantis, CI is almost a must as almost all good HD content is scrambled)
is over, i will start from scratch (from scratch, i had an event manager
to handle some of those, completely interrupt driven, but given the
short time and short temper, i put it away -- also not to mention, the
original chip designer went busy at greener pastures, with no one to ask
the why and how, got much irritated too fast) on this. The SCM code is
stupid though, it doesn't take advantage of interrupts, but simply
polls. AFAICT, it can be written much better, smaller, faster and smarter.

 Hej all,
 
 
 after having to learn that my old DVB-T hardware is making too much
 trouble, I decided to spend some Euros to buy a new one.
 
 Now before I do this, I want to ask you for your recommendation for the
 right choice of DVB-T USB stick. It has to support USB 1.1 for my laptop
 is not 2.0 compatible. And it should be a small and smart thing with least
 troubles in linux support!
 
 So what do you recommend?

don't get a usb dongle then. I would claim that *no* usb dongle works
reliably well under linux, at least not the dib* based dongles (like
nova-t usb, hama, avermedia ones.

After 'modprobe mantis' I'v see in dmesg:

and /dev/dvb/adapter0/ tree is created. It's looks like card 
correctly detected.
But I don't see /dev/dvb/adapter0/ca0 for CI module. Is this driver 
supports Twinhan 1034 CI interface ?

May be some repository with newer version is available ?
Thanks !

Currently not in the supplied open source drivers. There is a binary 
package at the Twinhan (download page) website which does support the 
CI but the modules were compiled for the first Fedore Core 6 kernel 
on a i586 platform.
Ok, thanks. But this module can't loading under linux kernel 2.6.20 
(as expected):
insmod: error inserting 'linuxdriver/v4l/mantis.ko': -1 Invalid module 
format
mantis: version magic '2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 SMP mod_unload 686 REGPARM 
4KSTACKS gcc-4.1' should be '2.6.20 SMP mod_unload PENTIUM4 '


Do you know how to force load this module ? May be some way to 
change magic string for matching ? I don't want to install FC6 ... :)

Thanks!

You could try a 'modprobe --force mantis'. But hte other modules neede 
should be that of the binary package and should also be loade with the 
--force option.

Michel.
