Well, it did help thank you very much! Now I finally have four DVB-T and 
four DVB-S2 adapters that can take any transponder I have access to 
without problems. I haven't looked into your patches yet but I hope the 
problems get solved in the main linuxtv tree soon, one way or the other.

Thanks again,

  Hi. I would be happy to hear if anyone has tried both the NOVA-TD
 and
  the
  NOVA-T. The NOVA-T has always worked perfectly here but I would
 like
  to
  know
  if the -TD will do the job of two NOVA-T's. And there also seems to
 be
  a
  new
  version out with two small antenna connectors instead of the
 previous
  configuration. Anyone tried it? Does it come with an antenna
 adaptor
  cable?
  http://www.hauppauge.de/de/pics/novatdstick_top.jpg
  Thankful for any info.
  Well I've this usb stick with these two small connectors - and it
 runs
  just fine.
 
  Though I think there is some problem with suspend/resume recently
  (2.6.32-rc5)  and it needs some inspection.
 
  But it works just fine for dual dvb-t viewing.
 
  And yes - it contains two small antennas with small connectors and
  one adapter for normal antenna - i.e. 1 antenna input goes to 2
 small
  antenna connectors.
  zdenek, your nova-td stick works just fine for dual dvb-t viewing?
  I always had this problem:
  When one channel is streaming and the other channel is switched on,
 the
  stream of the already running channel gets broken.
  see also:
  http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg06376.html
 
  Can you please test this case on your nova-td stick?
  I'll recheck in the evening whether there are no regression, but I've
  been able to get 3 dvb-t independent (different mux) TV streams (with
  the usage of the second stick Aver Hybrid Volar HX  proprietary Aver
  driver) with 2.6.29/30 vanilla kernels played at the same time on my
  C2D T61.
 
 
 
  Ok - I could confirm, I'm able to play two different muxes at the same
  time from this USB stick. And I do not experience any stream damage.
  I'm running Fedora Rawhide with vanilla kernel 2.6.32-rc5, kaffeine
  0.8.7 for the first adapter and relatively fresh mplayer compilation
  for the second adapter
 
  Thought there are things to be reported and fixed (some USB regression
  I guess) - I'll handle this via lkml.
 
 
  Anyway here is dmesg USB stick identification (labeled  WinTV  Nova-TD)
 
  USB device found, idVendor=2040, idProduct=5200
  USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
  Product: NovaT 500Stick
 
  Regards
 
  Zdenek
 
 
  Very strange. Playing of two different muxes is also no problem for me,
 as
  long
  as no new stream is started (of course after switching off one of the
  streams
  before). In the start moment of the new the stream the already running
  stream
  is disturbed and I see a demaged group of pictures in the old stream.
 After
  these few pictures the stream is running fine again.
 
  I cannot imagine that this is a specific problem of my stick, however,
  thank you for testing!
 
 
 Hmm - well I haven't made a close inspection (frame by frame) of every
 frame during the startup of second player.
 Kaffaine seems to have blocked screen refresh because Xorg gets locked
 via starting mplayer.
 So there is definitely frame skipping viewing experience - but that's
 the flaw of Xorg - sound is played just fine.
 
 If I should check whether there are no TS stream errors only at the
 moment of startup, I'll need to grab both streams and make a better
 analysis.  My current statement was purely based on the fact, that I
 could watch both channels without any picture artefacts or sound
 distorsion - but during startup there is surelly a period, when some
 frames are not even visibile, because kaffeine cannot even refresh
 playing window - but that's another story
 
 
 Zdenek


Hi again. Just got my two new NOVA-TD's and at a first glance they seemed to 
perform well. Closer inspections however revealed that I see exactly the same 
issues as Soeren. Watching live TV with VDR on one adaptor while constantly 
retuning the other one using:
while true;do tzap -x svt1;done
gives a short glitch in the VDR stream on almost every tzap. Another €100 down 
the drain. I'll probably buy four NOVA-T's instead just like I planned to at 
first.

Slowly, slowly. Magnus, you want to support dibcom with another 100EUR for
there poor performance in fixing the firmware?
Please test my patches, the nova-td is running fine with these patches,

Thanks Soeren, maybe I jumped to the wrong conclusions here. I actually
thought this came down to bad hardware design instead of a driver/firmware
issue. Unfortunately your patches made no difference here but I won't give
up that easily. If they made your problems disapperar there should be hope
for me too and I'll be glad to help in the development. I can live with the
glitches in the mean time if there's hope for improvement since I mostly
watch DVB-S these days. I'm running the stock Ubuntu Karmic 2.6.31 kernel
and standard linuxtv drivers from hg. I also have four TT S2-1600 cards in
there.

 I cannot imagine that this is a specific problem of my stick, however,
 thank you for testing!


Hmm - well I haven't made a close inspection (frame by frame) of every
frame during the startup of second player.
Kaffaine seems to have blocked screen refresh because Xorg gets locked
via starting mplayer.
So there is definitely frame skipping viewing experience - but that's
the flaw of Xorg - sound is played just fine.

If I should check whether there are no TS stream errors only at the
moment of startup, I'll need to grab both streams and make a better
analysis.  My current statement was purely based on the fact, that I
could watch both channels without any picture artefacts or sound
distorsion - but during startup there is surelly a period, when some
frames are not even visibile, because kaffeine cannot even refresh
playing window - but that's another story

  Hi. I would be happy to hear if anyone has tried both the NOVA-TD and
  the
  NOVA-T. The NOVA-T has always worked perfectly here but I would like to
  know
  if the -TD will do the job of two NOVA-T's. And there also seems to be a
  new
  version out with two small antenna connectors instead of the previous
  configuration. Anyone tried it? Does it come with an antenna adaptor
  cable?
  http://www.hauppauge.de/de/pics/novatdstick_top.jpg
  Thankful for any info.

 Well I've this usb stick with these two small connectors - and it runs
 just fine.

 Though I think there is some problem with suspend/resume recently
 (2.6.32-rc5)  and it needs some inspection.

 But it works just fine for dual dvb-t viewing.

 And yes - it contains two small antennas with small connectors and
 one adapter for normal antenna - i.e. 1 antenna input goes to 2 small
 antenna connectors.

 zdenek, your nova-td stick works just fine for dual dvb-t viewing?
 I always had this problem:
 When one channel is streaming and the other channel is switched on, the
 stream of the already running channel gets broken.

 http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg06376.html

 Can you please test this case on your nova-td stick?

I'll recheck in the evening whether there are no regression, but I've
been able to get 3 dvb-t independent (different mux) TV streams (with
the usage of the second stick Aver Hybrid Volar HX  proprietary Aver
driver) with 2.6.29/30 vanilla kernels played at the same time on my
C2D T61.

Ok - I could confirm, I'm able to play two different muxes at the same
time from this USB stick. And I do not experience any stream damage.
I'm running Fedora Rawhide with vanilla kernel 2.6.32-rc5, kaffeine
0.8.7 for the first adapter and relatively fresh mplayer compilation
for the second adapter

Thought there are things to be reported and fixed (some USB regression
I guess) - I'll handle this via lkml.


Anyway here is dmesg USB stick identification (labeled  WinTV  Nova-TD)

USB device found, idVendor=2040, idProduct=5200
USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
Product: NovaT 500Stick
