No answer? Please could someone tell me if is it dangerous to call dib0700_rc_setup (from dib0700core.c) every 100ms to reset remote control data? Do you know any other method to reset data about last key received from the ir sensor?

Re: [linux-dvb] wintv nova-t stick, dib0700 and remote controllers..
I'm asking this because calling dib0700_rc_setup after each keypress poll resets the ir data into the device to 0 0 0 0. What I'd like to know since I know almost nothing about dvb devices if is this going to someway damage my device if called each 150ms (period of the poll). If not I'll write a patch to support some of my remotes as well repeated keys events as soon I'll have some spare time. Does any of you know a different method to erase last received data from the device? 2008/2/14, Filippo Argiolas [EMAIL PROTECTED]: No answer?

[linux-dvb] Nova-T-500 disconnect issues
Hi. I have been following the discussion regarding the mt2060 I2C read / write failed errors. I am running Ubuntu and get the same behaviour since I upgraded to the latest kernel (2.6.24.1) to resolve some wireless driver issues I was having. When I was running the standard Ubuntu kernel (2.6.22-14-generic) I never had the disconnect issues in 3 or 4 months of 24/7 usage. This was using the latest v4l- dvb sources as per the wiki. Perhaps this would suggest that the error is not with the dib0700 driver but elsewhere? So my dilemma is do I have a constant wireless connection but a dvb driver that drops out or a constant dvb driver with a wireless connection that drops out?! ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

[linux-dvb] [ANNOUNCE] linux-next and V4L/DVB linux-next
A recent announce at LKML introduced a new concept of integrated development between the several subsystem trees, called linux-next. The basic idea is to have a common tree that merges all development efforts, helping to solve merge conflicts before arising at Linus main tree. More details can be seen at the original announce [1]. With this concept, what happens is that a new patch will mature at the development branches and at linux-next. At the release of a new kernel (let's say 2.6.25), a merge window will open to the next kernel (2.6.26). The patches for the next kernel will be submitted by each subsystem maintainer. Since those patches were already tested on linux-next tree, the merging process will become easier and the newer kernel will become more stable. So, linux-next contains the patches for 2.6.25, plus the patches expected to be added at kernel 2.6.26. For this to happen, I've created a newer -git tree, containing the committed changesets that are expected to appear at the next kernel. It contains basically the same patches already present on -hg and v4l-dvb.git trees, plus the base patches from linux-next (at 'stable' branch). Another branch ('master') will contain also the merged patches from the other subsystems. For those brave enough to test it, the tree is available at [2]. Please be warned to use this on a testing system, since patches at core subsystems (ext2, vfs, etc) may be broken there. In order have a single point where all trees are listed, I've updated README.patches file, and the main tree at http://linuxtv.org/hg with the newer tree. I've also added a link to README.patches there.

[linux-dvb] Terratec Cinergy T USB XE
Hello, I have a Terratec Cinergy T USB XE, 0ccd:0069 and have been trying to compile from site: http://www.jusst.de/hg/af901x/ My kernel is 2.6.22.5-31-x86_64.

Do I need another kernel? I have tried 2.6.24 but it did not seem to work at all with http://www.jusst.de/hg/af901x/ Is the support for Terratec Cinergy T USB XE, 0ccd:0069 and the Freescale tuner going to http://linuxtv.org/hg/ for all kernels? Is there anything I can do to solve this? Thank you in advance ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

I should also announce this status for the md8800... What's your opinion on this: According to the hints i got, the isl6405 is visible only on one section of the md8800. The other section has control over the voltage through a GPIO port. So unless i do something very dirty, there will either be the restriction - that the DVB-S decoder of the 16be:0007 section needs to be selected first. Otherwise the other DVB-S part will not work - or i will need to always fire up the LNB supply of the 0008 section as soon as DVB is initialized. The second approach has the advantage that it has little effect for the end user while the first needs to be explained. But i am not sure whether the isl6405 is fully short circuit proof. I will read the datasheet again... Best regards Hartmut ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
