[linux-dvb] Australia and the DViCO Dual Digital 4

2007-04-24 Thread ras243-dvb
Hi all, For those interested I live in Australia (Hobart) and I've been working on getting the driver for this card going here. I figure the more people working on it the more likely we are to get something going using random luck. Unfortunately I still can't get it to tune. So far I've

Hi all, A brief update. Firstly I've confirmed my newly created firmware file (pulled from usbsnoop logs) being sent to the xc3028 is identical to windows. Secondly, apart from a gate register being written, the ZL10353 should be consistent as well. Thirdly when I force the tuning data being

Finally some promising news for Australian Dual Digital 4 users. Many, many hours later it turns out to be fairly simple and I don't think we need to touch anything other than the tuner but I'm sticking with my hacked code which spews out register values galore until it's confirmed. It would

[linux-dvb] DViCO Dual Digital 4 remote?

2007-04-28 Thread ras243-dvb
Hi all, Does anyone have any ideas on how the remote control interfaces with this board? I'd like to get a driver going but can't see much from the USB snoop logs other than demodulator, tuner and transport stream data. Does the remote even go through the USB port? Any pointers appreciated.

Just an update for the list. It appears a simple firmware fix isn't quite enough to resolve the tuning problems in Australia. I'm working with a couple of people to firstly confirm my working copy of the tree works elsewhere in Australia and, if so, secondly to try and nail down which

Hi Everyone, Attached is both a firmware file (identical as previously sent for those who already have it), plus a patch (against the master branch+Mikes bluebird patch) which will hopefully resolve the problems for Australian Dual Digital 4 users. The firmware file sends tuning parameters

Hi Daniel, Just a follow up to our previous discussions which I'm CC'ing to the list as I think it'll be of use to others. You were right in that my original small firmware file seemed to hang the usb bus with the experimental branch - not really a good thing since it required a power down reset

Hi Roger, Hello again Markus, The firmware I attached is not a complete replacement for the original firmware. It should replace only the 7MHz (xc3028_DTV7_2633.i2c.fw) for Australia. The base firmware (xc3028_init0.i2c.fw) needs to be loaded first. Did you forget to attach that
