[linux-dvb] LeadTek WinFast DTV Dongle patch
Hi,
How do I get a patch incorporated into the dvb kernel section ?
After recently purchasing a LeadTek WinFast DTV Dongle I rapidly
discovered it was the variant that was not recognized in the kernel
i.e. as previously reported at:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2007-December/022373.html
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-January/023175.html
its device ids are: (lsusb)
ID 0413:6f01 Leadtek Research, Inc.
Rather than make the changes suggested by previous posters I set about
making a script and associated kernel patches to automatically do this.
My motivation was simple: I use a laptop with an ATI graphics card and
fedora 8. I find the best drivers for this card are currently from Livna
and are updated monthly (and changes are significant at the moment i.e.
see the phoronix forum). So I would need to do this repeatedly.
In my patch I add an identifier (USB_PID_WINFAST_DTV_DONGLE_STK7700P_B)
and modify the table appropriately
When I plug it in I now see in my messages log
kernel: usb 1-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 9

[linux-dvb] wintv nova-t stick, dib0700 and remote controllers..
Hi, I've just bought a Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T Stick (model 1156 italy). It has no remote controller bundled within but it has got a IR sensor that works good with freshly updated mercurial drivers. So why not to try some of my tv remotes I've got? I started pressing random keys with evtest running but nothing happened. So I took a look at dmesg and I've seen that keycodes are being received but classified as unknown. So my first question was: why does the driver process keycodes instead of passing them raw to lirc? I've looked into the code and seen that some commercial remote is hardcoded into the source. But since my device can receive almost every rc-5 and rc-6 remote why limit it to some known commercial one? I've started taking notes of keycodes outputted to kern.log by my remotes and writing some keymap for them. I've encountered a problem; all works well with a remote from a philipps tv but something strange happens with my sony remote let me explain what i've understood looking at dib0700_devices.c: 1. when a remote key is received device stores key data somewhere 2. after the key press, key data into the device does not change so retrieving it again ends up with receiving the same key even if nothing is being pressed!!! Key data is an array with 3 fields (4 but field 0 is always null), two of them identifies the keycode and one is called rc_toggle. With philipps remote: - i press the volume up key - the driver retrieves key data with volume up code and toggle bit 0 - the driver stop listening to events with toggle bit 0 to prevent retrieving the last event still stored into the device. - i press the volume up key - the driver retrieves key data with volume up code and toggle bit 1 - ok this is a new a event, we can be sure it's not the old one still stored and process the event. Pressing again the same key outputs alternatively toggle bit 0 and 1. With sony (and with a teac dvd player) remote: - i press the volume up key - key data is retrieved but toggle bit is ALWAYS set to 1. - nothing happens anymore because toggle bit never changes.. I think that this behavior is not the correct one: we limit the number of working remotes, we cannot listen to repeated keys (holding a key down toggle bit does not change so we process it as a single keypress). A good solution would be forcing the device to reset ir data after each event but I don't know if this is achievable. Maybe calling dib0700_rc_setup after each poll?

Hi, Matthias
Hi Eduard!
I've been performing some tests using your patch for this card.
Right now neither dvbscan nor kaffeine are able to find any channel on
Astra (the sat. my dish points to).
However, Kaffeine has been giving me some interesting results: with
your driver as is it's getting me a 13-14% signal level and ~52% SNR
when scanning. Then, thinking that the problem is related to the low
signal I have I've changed the gain levels used to program the tuner:
you were using default values of 0 for all (in
zl1003x_set_gain_params() function, variables rfg, ba and bg),
and I've changed them top the maximum (according to the documentation:
rfg=1, ba=bg=3). With that, I'm getting a 18% signal level, which is
higher but still too low apparently to get a lock.
I've stopped here, because I really don't have the necessary background
to keep tweaking the driver. I just wanted to share it with you, as
maybe you have some idea on how to continue or what else could be done.
So I can do only this guess:
I changed demod driver to invert the Polarization voltage for a700 card.
This is controlled by member-variable voltage_inverted.
static struct mt312_config avertv_a700_mt312 = {
.demod_address = 0x0e,
.voltage_inverted = 1,
};
Can you try to comment the voltage_inverted line here (saa7134-dvb.c:
line 865).
BUT: If this helps we need to find out how to detect which card needs
this enabled/disabled.
Regards
Matthias
Hi,
Nothing :(. Removing (or setting it to 0) the voltage_inverted
member doesn't seem to make any difference. I'm starting to suspect
that there is something wrong with my antennae setup, so I'll test it
later using an standalone STB or by plugging the card into a Windows
computer and using the supplied drivers.
Regards,
Eduard
By the way (sorry if I'm being molest...): I will leave the card in this
PC for now, as it's easier fo me to test and develop. As I have also
Windows here ¿is there any way we could do any reverse enginnering from
Windows driver, etc...?
I already asked you to compare eeprom output in dmesg. But did you also
compare GPIO messages - like init-values read after startup (to detect
different wiring)?
This is from my dmesg output: saa7133[0]: board init: gpio is a600
Or just attach dmesg output after a cold boot and loading saa7134 driver (with
i2c_scan=1).
Maybe I create a patch where you can select the other existing zl10313 driver.
So we can compare the logs / functionality.
Matthias

Hi all, I've still been trying to get the inluded remote with my USB DVB-T Tuner working. It's a Compro Videomate U500 - it useses the dibcom 7000 chipset.

Just looking through /var/log/syslog and noticed that it is filled with messages such as this: Feb 10 14:00:17 matthew-desktop kernel: [ 6549.313822] dib0700: Unknown remote controller key : 1E 42 Feb 10 14:00:18 matthew-desktop kernel: [ 6549.389724] dib0700: Unknown remote controller key : 1E 42 Feb 10 14:00:18 matthew-desktop kernel: [ 6549.465623] dib0700: Unknown remote controller key : 1E 42 Feb 10 14:00:18 matthew-desktop kernel: [ 6549.542087] dib0700: Unknown remote controller key : 1E 42 Feb 10 14:00:18 matthew-desktop kernel: [ 6549.617927] dib0700: Unknown remote controller key : 1E 42 There seems to be about 5 such messages every second, and the controller key listed at the end (1E 42 in this case) changes depending on the last button pressed on the remote. The same messages appear on dmesg. Obviously, as the code changes, the remote is being picked up by the kernel, but not being acted upon correctly. Is this normal, and does this mean something is working/not working? As stated above, I am still unable to get irrecord to show anything etc... I can't get it to work with or without lirc... Any ideas?

getting a 18% signal level, which is higher but still too low apparently
to get a lock.
I've stopped here, because I really don't have the necessary background
to keep tweaking the driver. I just wanted to share it with you, as

This is controlled by member-variable voltage_inverted.

[linux-dvb] Trying to solve firmware upload problem with MSI [EMAIL PROTECTED] A/D v1.1 card
Hi, I'm interested in trying to get the MSI [EMAIL PROTECTED] A/D v1.1 card working. There is a problem with firmware uploads to the TDA10046A chip being unreliable. I wonder if someone could give an overview on how the firmware upload process works from the point of view of the driver and what I settings I should be looking at to try and solve the problem being experienced with this card? I previously posted some details of what's happening with this card that are available form http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-February/thread.html#23574 I've cloned the mercural v4l-dvb repository and have begun setting up a new card entry for this card and am looking for ideas of what I could try to fix this unreliable firmware upload problem. Perhaps some GPIO ports need to be initialized before uploading firmware?

Re: [linux-dvb] DiSEqC trouble with TT S-1500
Hi, Can you explain how you select those 4 positions ? DiSEqC commands or tone/voltage changes ? Also can you determine the input type of those positions (Hi/Low, H/V, etc) ? A scenario to see when and why that happens, would be more useful. P. van Gaans wrote: Hi, I've got a Technotrend S-1500 (if it matters: I use it with Kaffeine 0.8.3). It works mostly fine, but there's a strange problem. With my Spaun 4/1 DiSEqC switch (they cost approx 25-40 euro), I can only switch without trouble to position 1 and 2. If I tune directly to position 3 it won't lock. However, if I first tune to a channel on position 1 or 2 and try a channel on position 3 after that, it will work. Position 4 however is completely unreachable. On a standalone receiver, there's no trouble with the same cable. Now Spaun is a really expensive and respected brand. So their switches possibly work in a different way, because a cheap Maximum 4/1 switch works perfectly with the S-1500. Position 1, 2, 3 and 4 all work perfectly. I also did some dry testing indoors and it looks like a 7 euro Satconn 4/1 switch would also work fine, but a 17 euro Axing SPU 41-02 probably won't. I'm guessing this could be solved in stv0299.c but I'm not much of an expert.

Re: [linux-dvb] [PATCH] support Cinergy HT USB XE (0ccd:0058)
Albert, your dmesg output looks quite good. In fact, the only line that irritates me is the line with xc2028 4-0061: Error on line 1063: -5 This line indicates an i2c-communication problem with the tuner.

Re: [linux-dvb] [PATCH] support Cinergy HT USB XE (0ccd:0058)
Hi Hans, thanks for your answer, I say what I tryed; your dmesg output looks quite good. In fact, the only line that irritates me is the line with xc2028 4-0061: Error on line 1063: -5 This line indicates an i2c-communication problem with the tuner. As it happens BEFORE the XC3028 firmware is loaded, it cannot have anything to do with the xc3028 firmware. Therefore, I suspect something either with the general setup of the Expresscard or a DiB firmware that does not 100% support your device. Have you tried a later firmware? I was trying latest firmware (I think): dvb-usb-dib0700-03-pre1.fw I also tryed the previous; dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw And an other one; dvb-usb-dib0700-01.fw This last one doesn't give any error, but I also can not see anything on scanning. I send you the dmesg. Feb 13 19:14:50: xc2028 7-0061: Loading firmware for type=D2620 DTV8 (208), id . Feb 13 19:14:50: xc2028 7-0061: Device is Xceive 3028 version 1.0, firmware version 2.7 Feb 13 19:14:50: dib0700: stk7700ph_xc3028_callback: XC2028_RESET_CLK 1 This last lines are a little bit different from the ones I have... Perhaps something about the firmware modification. I did not change the extract_firmware.pl file (in fact, it is not useable for the Mod7700.sys driver, but expects the driver file hcw85bda.sys), but just used a hex editor to replace the ID 0x64000200 by 0x6200. I tryed to do the same but I can't find 0x64000200 on the hex... Could you send me your firmware just to try? certainly a good idea to use an amplified antenna. Have you got another DVB-t device that works with a passive antenna in the same area where you use your new device? I use the same device on XP and it detects some channels. When I try to scan with kaffeine I don't see any SNR or anything so I guess the comunication with xc3028 is failing. Thanks again for your answer.

Also can you determine the input type of those positions (Hi/Low, H/V, etc) ? A scenario to see when and why that happens, would be more useful. P. van Gaans wrote: Hi, I've got a Technotrend S-1500 (if it matters: I use it with Kaffeine 0.8.3). It works mostly fine, but there's a strange problem. With my Spaun 4/1 DiSEqC switch (they cost approx 25-40 euro), I can only switch without trouble to position 1 and 2. If I tune directly to position 3 it won't lock. However, if I first tune to a channel on position 1 or 2 and try a channel on position 3 after that, it will work. Position 4 however is completely unreachable. On a standalone receiver, there's no trouble with the same cable. Now Spaun is a really expensive and respected brand. So their switches possibly work in a different way, because a cheap Maximum 4/1 switch works perfectly with the S-1500. Position 1, 2, 3 and 4 all work perfectly. I also did some dry testing indoors and it looks like a 7 euro Satconn 4/1 switch would also work fine, but a 17 euro Axing SPU 41-02 probably won't. I'm guessing this could be solved in stv0299.c but I'm not much of an expert.

[linux-dvb] Mdeion / Creatix CTX948 DVB-S driver is ready for testing
Hi, folks In my personal repository: http://linuxtv.org/hg/~hhackmann/v4l-dvb-experimental/ you will find a driver that supports this card, DVB-T and DVB-S It might also work for - one section of the MD8800 - similar boards based on saa713x, tda10086, tda826x, isl6405 The board will show up as MD8800. According to Hermann, the configurations for analog TV and DVB-T are identical. If you want to use the board with DVB-S, you will need to load the saa7134-dvb module with the option use_frontend=1. The default 0 is DVB-T. For those who got the board from a second source: don't forget to connect the 12v (the floppy supply) connector. I don't have a dish, so i depend on your reports. To get the MD8800 running, i need a volunteer who does the testing for me. He should be able to apply patches, compile the driver and read kernel logs. Good luck Hartmut ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
