Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

I'd be much obliged if someone could give me some interpretation on the following? If I read it right, this means that the tuner tunes OK, and then the filter loads OK (no error message on the filter load), but no data is being returned? If so, could this be a DMA problem? Would anyone know a way

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

Thanks all for your feedback. I've been investigating the Xen angle as well and there seem to be quite a few reports of DVB cards not working in Xen at the moment. The culprit appears to be something to do with DMA, although whether it's Xen or the drivers remains to be seen . From what I can

HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

Description of problem: Support for Hauupauge HVR-4000 appears to be broken (again) in kernel mods. This is a bit of a tale of woe, but this hardware is supposed to have been sorted in stock kernel roundabout 3.0. Stock F16 kernel cannot scan or tune in mythtv, kaffeine, w_scan, or dvbscan.

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

i also have hvr-4000 but havent tried it on recent kernels yet. i get no lock problems only with dvb-s2 but that is a hardware limitation, that it is not able to get right parameters. i dont know if they did something with it. would be about time however. i am alos curious what he means by try

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

OK, sure... bit more history... I've struggled along with the card for many year. Was previously in a F12 x64, with the http://hg.kewl.org/pub/v4l-dvb-20100517/ DVB modules compiled in and everything worked except MythTV. Then with a few kludges to MythTV everything ended up working. The system

I've just done some tests without Xen. The situation does change, in that scandvb finds the services (so no more filter timeouts). Kaffeine also manages to scan the channels OK - however despite managing to scan, tune and get the EPG there is no picture on any channel. I can't test MythTV

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

If you're running Xen, then as far as I'm concerned you're on a *totally* unsupported path. If it happened to have worked in some previous version, it was dumb luck. As for you issue when not using Xen, you're probably just missing the Kaffeine libraries required for video playback (a common

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

Hi Jonathon, I would make two suggestions to you. 1. Check on the Mythtv forums (and post the question there), if you haven't already. They may have a bit more insight into the card with their system.  And they may be able to sort out the lack of picture (even though it's not on their
