Just noticed another problem.. I've never been able to lock on to low symbol rate channels before... however, in diagnosing the other STV0299 problems, I disabled the FE_TIMEDOUT bit in dvb_frontend.c.
Now, I'm able to lock on to low symbol rate signals... I've just managed it with a 4340000 symbol rate... getting a REALLY good signal from it, but it took about 10 seconds to tune (the current timeout is hardcoded to 2 seconds). The STV0299B docs say it needs a certain number of symbols before being able to get a lock... perhaps we need to have a timeout which is based on the symbol rate. Again, I can just hack my userspace app to ignore this bit, but IMO, it should be fixed in the driver. Opinions? If no one disagrees, I can sort something out.... -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
