Great job, it works!

Thank you so much :)
Should we try the isoc transfer now?

und diese verwechslung verursacht die bild-/tonfehler?

and this confusion causes the image/sound issues?

Ja habe ich. Leichte patch anpassungen bekomme ich meist auchnoch hin.
Wirklich programmieren kann ich aber nicht.

Yes I have. I have little skills in patch adjustments (very little). But
I'm not a developer so I have no coding skills.

Vielen Dank im vorraus für deine Hilfe.
Thank you in advance for your help.

P.S. a few words in my text are google translated  ;)

it is a USB2 interface:
[3.965425] usb 1-3.1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and
address 6 (it's the USB hub in the box)

I also thought the USB chipset could be the problem and testet it with
an extra USB2 card.

I think isoc would be okay on 2.6.32, so no need to change that, right?

That would be nice.

P.S. my english is not the best so I don't understand all you wrote but
why don't you put the patches upstream?

Bad image/sound quality with Medion MD 95700

2009-12-24 Thread TAXI
Hi,
I tried a Medion MD 95700 with kernel 2.6.32 (for tests: 2.6.30.9) and
have a very bad image and sound quality.
Right now I'm using 2.6.32 with V4L/DVB from SVN (v4l-dvb-4506e2d54126)

Here is an example: http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/3950/dvbtlinux.png
and another: http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/6278/dvbt2.png

The DVB-T stream seems to be good:
femon
FE: Conexant CX22702 DVB-T (DVBT)
status SCVYL | signal 6565 | snr  | ber  | unc  |
FE_HAS_LOCK

(it's a bit bad right now, normally the signal is around 50%)

under windows XP the image and sound is perfect.

Feature Request: virtual /dev/videoX for low budget DVB cards

2009-12-24 Thread TAXI
What about a virtual /dev/videoX for low budget DVB cards?
The idea behind is to provide a device set with every type of card (low
budget, full featured) so that for example tvtime works with every type
of card.

The virtual device could be made by the following way:
kernel driver (low budget, DVB-Decoded) -> kernel/userspace linker ->
userspace decoder -> kernel/userspace linker -> kernel-driver (low
budget, DVB-Encoded)

I'm not a developer so (maybe) that's just a stupid idea.
