Not sure, however, if this makes sense at all for DVB-S cards. Hello Alexander, I have just tried running dmesg on my regular kernel which is a 2.6.22-9.61 fc6 and now I get much the same as above . So looks like support for T300 might be in there already . But that is neither here nor there . >From what I can see the brake down of the S350 is : saa7130 , demodulator : zl10313 which has now been re-badged by Intel as CE6313 and tuner zl10039 which has also been re-badged by Intel as CE 5039 . Looking through the archives looks like there was some mention of zl10313 in December 2006 here : http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2006-December/015092.html and perhaps some work done on demodulator drivers here : http://www.mcmilk.de/projects/dvb-card/patches/ I guess what we might need is some driver development for the demodulator/tuner . I noticed there is a lot of interest for linux drivers out there for S350 . Looks like there is quite a large user base of this card including Broadband Internet via Satellite . Especially in forums such as this : http://forum.ixbt.com/topic.cgi?id=73:2477-18 To developers : If any printouts or info is needed please do not hesitate to ask . Best Regards Milorad Hello , Just heard on the grapevine that we attracted the attention of one of the driver Developers for our Compro Videomate S350 Satellite card . Very good news as I have already begun to give up hope of ever getting this card working . Much thanks Manu for getting on the band wagon . And if there is any testing or printouts that you need please do not hesitate to ask . Thanks Manu again , for getting involved in this as you probably have too many commitments as it is . Best Regards Milorad Hello , Newest developments on this side . Have been in contact with Compro to see if they are willing to send the source code for their driver or perhaps compile a newer binary as the one they supply is very old (kernel 2.6.17) . No luck with first one , but they did send me a link to a fedora kernel compilation that was for kernel 2.6.18 ,but kernel would not start . It complained that file was corrupt . Tried to force load the zl100313 module that came with it but it also failed ( my kernel is 2.6.22 ) complaining that there was symbol issues . I came across some interesting info in a Russian forum where people seem to be using this S350 card a lot for Broadband Internet.

Also would it be possible to decrypt an entire mux if I have a subscription for all the channels in the mux? -- Patrick Bulteel Reading the do drivers support Nagravision CA post suggests that your CAM + subscription card combination needs to be registered in some way with the broadcaster, so that the appropriate 'entitlement message' can be sent out over the data stream to allow the card to generate the decryption code word sequence for the streams you have subscribed to.

Re: [linux-dvb] Command line dvb tuning utilities
Simon Hargreaves a écrit : What dvb tuning command line utilities are there for linux at the moment? The options I have a zap, but this does not tune to a service ID it requires specified video and audio pids, or dvbtune which although will tune into a service id it doesn't set the dvr0 device up for TS recording as well as locking the device so no other process can access it. My programme is set up to do recording directly from the dvr0 data stream, this used to work on my old kernel version but since updating my system to use 2.6.22 it now longer appears to work. The only options appear to be coding my own command line interface to the dvb device, but I'd rather not reinvent the wheel. Simon... ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb I use zapdvb to tune and record DVB stream.

[linux-dvb] S2 multiple streams and config file
Hi all, With regards to the case of multiple logical TS's we need to select the logical stream from the multiplex. Here we have a stream identifier comprising of 8 bits representing the streams. In this circumstance the user needs to select the stream that he desires. For the user to select the stream, it should be in the channels config file. I do propose a format such as adding IS:0xff where IS implies Input Stream and 0xff defines the stream id. to the end of the current config to denote Multiple streams and the relevant Stream identifier, and where the lack of which would mean a normal Single TS. Comments ? Regards, Manu ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

This sounds good.

Ok, good point. What about like this then: nPSK:DELSYS:IS:0xff Where nPSK represents whatever n=B/Q/8/16A/32A PSK, DELSYS=DSS/S/S2 indicates that it is a DSS/DVB-S/DVB-S2 system type. Thereby all system specifics will be followed by eg: S2:*, thereby better readability. Why nPSK should come ahead delivery system: * delivery system is a subset of the modulation * not all 8PSK modulation is DVB-S2. Comments ?

[linux-dvb] TwinhanDTV Alpha VP7045A USB2, firmware progress?
Hi there, After reading on the MythTV wiki that the VP7045A version of the Alpha is supported since kernel 2.6.17, I purchased one yesterday. lsusb reveals the device is seen, and in warm state and the dvb-usb module and other stuff are loaded correctly. I cannot tune any channels, and further googling reveals its a problem for a number of people - drat. MythTV wiki certainly needs to be updated! I'm keen to help get this USB stick working, so what can I do to help here? After some driver install issues in Vista I managed to get it working, and despite battling with poorly designed Windows DVB software I get an excellent 1080i picture on my 1920x1200 Dell Inspiron laptop LCD. I only boot Windows for the odd game, so would desperately like to get this going in my prefered openSUSE 10.3.
