I am not sure why but I suspect that an additional load of ivtv (modprobe ivtv being issued twice once after the saa7127 mod loads) at boot time caused the saa7127 module to not be loaded - ??
Modprobing the saa7127 module again makes the live tv play in color without freezing. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Edward Brookhouse Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 7:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ivtv-devel] pvr350 live tv goes blank Hi all, I am setting up a PVR350 and when I start live tv I get a few seconds of black and white tv with no audio and then black screen then back to mythmenu. I'm using Core 3 and 0.3.3 k ivtv on a 2.6.11-1.27_FC3 kernel. Mostly follwing the guide at wilsonnet to set this up using apt - I'm using the 'recommened' firmware from the ivtv wiki - doing a firmware reload seems to go ok - I believe the problem is the options given to my 350 but I am unsure. I searched through the archives for some of the errors I am seeing with no success - some others had mentioned live tv freezing after a few seconds but no resolutions. Any thoughts appreciated, Edward [EMAIL PROTECTED] PVR350 is set to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]# ivtvctl -a ioctl: IVTV_IOC_G_CODEC Codec parameters aspect : 2 audio : 0x00e9 bframes : 3 bitrate_mode: 0 bitrate : 4500000 bitrate_peak: 6000000 dnr_mode : 0 dnr_spatial : 0 dnr_temporal: 0 dnr_type : 0 framerate : 0 framespergop: 15 gop_closure : 1 pulldown : 0 stream_type : 0 ioctl: VIDIOC_G_FMT Type : Video Capture Width : 480 Height : 480 ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYCAP Driver name : ivtv Card type : WinTV PVR 350 Bus info : 0 Driver version: 771 Capabilities : 0x01070033 ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUMINPUT Input : 0 Name : Composite 0 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 1 Name : Composite 1 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 2 Name : Composite 2 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 3 Name : Composite 3 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 4 Name : Tuner 0 Type : 0x00000001 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x0000000000003000 ( NTSC ) Status : 0 Input : 5 Name : Composite 4 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 6 Name : S-Video 0 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 7 Name : S-Video 1 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 8 Name : S-Video 2 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 Input : 9 Name : S-Video 3 Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000003 Tuner : 0x00000000 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Status : 0 ioctl: VIDIOC_G_INPUT Input = 0 ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUMOUTPUT Output : 0 Name : S-Video + Composite Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000001 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Output : 1 Name : Composite Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000001 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Output : 2 Name : S-Video Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000001 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Output : 3 Name : RGB Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000001 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Output : 4 Name : YUV C Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000001 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) Output : 5 Name : YUV V Type : 0x00000002 Audioset: 0x00000001 Standard: 0x00000000007F3FFF ( PAL NTSC SECAM ) ioctl: VIDIOC_G_OUTPUT Output = 0 ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUMAUDIO Input : 0 Name : Tuner Audio In Input : 1 Name : Audio Line In ioctl: VIDIOC_G_AUDIO Input = 1: Audio Line In ioctl: VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY Frequency = 0 ioctl: VIDIOC_ENUMSTD index : 0 ID : 0x0000000000003000 Name : NTSC Frame period: 1001/30000 Frame lines : 525 index : 1 ID : 0x00000000000000FF Name : PAL Frame period: 1/25 Frame lines : 625 index : 2 ID : 0x00000000007F0000 Name : SECAM Frame period: 1/25 Frame lines : 625 ioctl: VIDIOC_G_STD Standard = 0x00003000 ioctl: VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL Brightness = 128 Contrast = 64 Saturation = 64 Hue = 0 Volume = 58950 Mute = 0 Debug from mythfrontend is showing: Remote encoder not responding. 2005-06-07 16:35:25.017 WriteStringList: Bad socket 2005-06-07 16:35:25.017 ReadStringList: Bad socket Remote encoder not responding. 2005-06-07 16:35:25.017 59936 bytes free on soundcard 2005-06-07 16:35:25.017 WriteStringList: Bad socket 2005-06-07 16:35:25.017 ReadStringList: Bad socket Remote encoder not responding.
