Hi again!
I could pinpoint the source of the problem in the cx25840 module
(it's volume
related... something the cx25837 chip on the AV400 does not support),
so I'll
report this to the linux-media list.
But now that I've (again) patched the cx25840 module I can use the
AV400
without audio problems on my PC. :D
As I hope that this regression will be fixed soon, what needs to be
tested so
that the AV400 will become a part of the in-kernel version?
I have used the composite part of the device for months now without any
problems. I'll need to test S-video, but so far I'm totally satisfied
with the
device (it runs better than on Windows).
Basically I'd like to verify that all the inputs (audio and video
routing configuration) work correctly; if I remember correctly that was
really the part of the port that we weren't sure about. I can't do that
myself because I don't have access to the hardware. You do - I can help
you understand the routing mechanism, and if you can generate a patch
and verify that it all works, then I will pull it into the driver.
I can tell you the following: the default configuration (composite)
works without problems (including audio). S-video does not work
correctly though: I see the video input, but it's vertically shifted
(~halfway with the lower half being visible at the upper half), the
picture moves/flickers horizontally and I see only outlines (audio works
correctly).
Searching your mail archive for av400 related content I stumpled upon
this mail from Dave Craig:
http://www.isely.net/pipermail/pvrusb2/2009-March/002221.html
I changed the routing from
CX25840_SVIDEO_LUMA3|CX25840_SVIDEO_CHROMA4
to
CX25840_SVIDEO_LUMA2|CX25840_SVIDEO_CHROMA4
and now the picture is stable and centered. The only remaining problem
is, that it is black and white, but this can also be related to the
source signal. I'll investigate this further.
Ok, color works. It was a problem of the input signal. I have now simply
plugged the S-video output of my graphic card into the S-video input of
the AV400 and I have a colored picture of my monitor inside mplayer :D
Regards,
Sven
