Hi, I know this has been discussed over and over again in the list, however after having read: - http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000 - http://dev.kewl.org/hauppauge/ - most of the relevant threads on this list, at least the recent ones I have been trying for half a day and I still can not get this to work.
My goal is to get this card to tune to a DVB-S2 transponder, more specifically this one: http://en.kingofsat.net/tp.php?tp=2656 I have a dish with 4 LNBs connected to the HVR4000 through a DiSEqC 1.0 4x1 switch. The 4th LNB is pointed to this satellite and I can tune to DVB-S transponders there just fine with another card as well as this one (more on that later). I assume multiproto is necessary for DVB-S2 tuning to actually work. Right? In all the above sources of information, this is only clearly noted in some threads in the list archives. I have been following the steps noted on the wiki page: Latest - 29-1-08 --------------------------- hg clone http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto wget http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/attachments/20080128/adee4c88/attachment-0001.bin mv attachment-0001.bin multiproto-hvr4k-2008-01-28.patch.bz2 bunzip2 multiproto-hvr4k-2008-01-28.patch.bz2 ln -s multiproto a; ln -s multiproto b patch -p0 < multiproto-hvr4k-2008-01-28.patch cd multiproto run make menuconfig and disable the USB capture cards as the em88 drivers are broken and make sure customise frontends is enabled. make && make install && reboot I am working on a Debian testing/lenny system. I have tried the above with kernels 2.6.22 and 2.6.24. The sample kernel output on the wiki says 2.6.26.1. What is the minimum kernel version that must be used with multiproto in order for DVB-S2 to work? These are the relevant parts of kernel log on 2.6.24: cx88/2: cx2388x MPEG-TS Driver Manager version 0.0.6 loaded cx88[0]: subsystem: 0070:6902, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR4000 DVB-S/S2/ T/Hybrid [card=59,autodetected] cx88[0]: TV tuner type 63, Radio tuner type -1 cx88/0: cx2388x v4l2 driver version 0.0.6 loaded cx2388x alsa driver version 0.0.6 loaded tveeprom 1-0050: Hauppauge model 69009, rev B2D3, serial# 3033667 tveeprom 1-0050: MAC address is 00-0D-FE-2E-4A-43 tveeprom 1-0050: tuner model is Philips FMD1216MEX (idx 133, type 63) tveeprom 1-0050: TV standards PAL(B/G) PAL(I) SECAM(L/L') PAL(D/D1/K) ATSC/DVB Digital (eeprom 0xf4) tveeprom 1-0050: audio processor is CX882 (idx 33) tveeprom 1-0050: decoder processor is CX882 (idx 25) tveeprom 1-0050: has radio, has IR receiver, has no IR transmitter cx88[0]: hauppauge eeprom: model=69009 input: cx88 IR (Hauppauge WinTV-HVR400 as /class/input/input4 cx88[0]/2: cx2388x 8802 Driver Manager ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0b.2[A] -> GSI 23 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 cx88[0]/2: found at 0000:02:0b.2, rev: 5, irq: 19, latency: 64, mmio: 0xf9000000 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:0b.0[A] -> GSI 23 (level, low) -> IRQ 19 cx88[0]/0: found at 0000:02:0b.0, rev: 5, irq: 19, latency: 64, mmio: 0xf7000000 input: ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse as /class/input/input5 cx88/2: cx2388x dvb driver version 0.0.6 loaded cx88/2: registering cx8802 driver, type: dvb access: shared cx88[0]/2: subsystem: 0070:6902, board: Hauppauge WinTV-HVR4000 DVB-S/ S2/T/Hybrid [card=59] cx88[0]/2: cx2388x based DVB/ATSC card tuner' 1-0043: chip found @ 0x86 (cx88[0]) tda9887 1-0043: tda988[5/6/7] found tuner' 1-0061: chip found @ 0xc2 (cx88[0]) tuner-simple 1-0061: type set to 63 (Philips FMD1216ME MK3 Hybrid Tuner) tuner' 1-0063: chip found @ 0xc6 (cx88[0]) cx88[0]/0: registered device video0 [v4l2] cx88[0]/0: registered device vbi0 cx88[0]/0: registered device radio0 DVB: registering new adapter (cx88[0]) DVB: registering frontend 0 (Conexant CX24116/CX24118)...

The patches didn't apply cleanly with the current tip. I had to go back to 7192 (b6e3eee46ca2) to apply the 2008-02-07 sfe patch. Compiled for 2.4.22, DVB-S works, with the default sysctl value of dev.cx24116.modfec=0xfe30. After setting dev.cx24116.modfec=0x0d I can no longer scan a DVB-S or a DVB-S2 transponder. With 2.4.24 neither of the above works. Could someone please help? I am afraid that I am either getting it all wrong, or the recipes from two weeks ago no longer work. I'm not that new to linux-dvb, but I haven't followed the developments involving this card, multiproto and DVB-S2, and it's really overwhelming/ confusing... One more thing: I've read about szap2 and perhaps other dvb-apps which have been specifically made compatible with multiproto. I've noticed these being casually mentioned in various list posts. However, I have only been able to find a few somewhat old "traces" of szap2, and not, say, a full patch against dvb-apps. Is there a distribution? Where at? Thanks in advance.
