Re: Order of dvb devices

2010-01-15 Thread Mika Laitio
True, the ordering is not exactly the same everytime. One will need to provide PCI Bus related info also to a practical udev configuration to get things sorted out in a sane way, rather than anything else. At least in Mandriva, the order and naming of network adapters are handled by using a thi

The monitoring application produces a sound indicating the signal quality. The higher the beep the better the signal quality. This is useful while mounting the antenna for finding the best position without having to look at the monitor or without even having a monitor. Thank you for this! Very

The firmware loads correctly now! Which devices requires i2c-dev module? I mean if I want to buy new dvb devices in addition of hvr-4000 and hvr-1300, should I then avoid some devices... Mika -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message t

That said, the solution takes the approach of "revolutionary" as opposed to "evolutionary", which always worries me. While providing a much more powerful interface, it also means all of the applications will have to properly support all of the various possible representations of the data, increas

I also can confirm this. Reverting to a previous revision restores proper tuning to vertical transponders. I can also confirm it with hvr-4000 and latest drivers v4l-dvb drivers from linuxtv org. Before I reverted this patch, I could not get lock with vdr for example to: Sky News;BT:11597:vC

Re: [linux-dvb] How to use scan-s2?

2009-01-26 Thread Mika Laitio
As an owner of cx24116 device you should know that it doesn't allow any AUTO settings, so you have to create an INI file with all parameters explicitly specifed (FEC, modulation, rolloff). I believe this is the main problem. Also, please take the latest scan-s2, I've done some changes especily f

I also run it with "-5". I personaly don't like to use network advertisements (-n switch) since I don't trust them. I use a full frequency filled INI file. Hi It might be that the signal is not the best possible for me as I can only scan about 500 channels with scan by using a command: ./scan

I don't think these changes were ever merged in. I noticed newer activity in your dev tree though since this request. Is it safe to grab that as well, or should I go back to this date? They should be safe. Please note that I'm recovering from a hard down of my main machine [root partition super
