Re: [Freevo-users] memory card reader
Hi, You will need some modules from the kernel. USB modules MSdos / VFAT file system modules SCSI + SCSI Generic modules you have to load the modules then insert the usb card reader and it will porbably be mapped at /dev/sda (and others if it is a multi card reader) Create a mount point an then you could mount /dev/sda1 to the mont point. I'm sure that you find detailed procedures with google.

I'd rather not have to use another PCI slot just for a tuner card when I can have an all-in-one solution to save space in my PC. -Jesse -Original Message- From: Jorn A Hansen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 29, 2003 6:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Freevo-users] ATI All In Wonder Radeon Jesse Stay wrote: Has anyone had success getting Freevo to work with ATI All-In-Wonder Radeon cards? I know MythTV doesn't work with them, so I thought before I try I'd see if it was possible with Freevo. I have TV out working using the stock 4.3.0 version of XFree86 on a Redhat 9 based system. As I recall it I followed the instructions in the http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Radeon7000Page and set it up the easy way basically using the vesa driver - not the ati or radeon one! This allows me to use Freevo for music and watching pictures and movies. But I guess what you _really_ want to do is to use it for capturing TV for either recording or viewing. I have not tried that yet though. Because Freevo's TV capturing capabilities rely on external programs like either mplayer or tvtime for tv viewing it's more a question if we can get one of the external programs to work with the AIW Radeon card. http://tvtime.sourceforge.net/hardware.html#aiw suggest that there could be problems doing that and I saw a similar note somewhere on the mplayer pages. But maybe since we are some people in the same boat we could help each other out and do something about it. I think there are a couple of options here: 1. Sort out the possible problems with the GATOS drivers that are mentioned on the tvtime page referred above to make it work with either tvtime or mplayer. 2. We could replace the mplayer/tvtime plugins in Freevo with something that works for the AIW Radeon like AVview from the Gatos project. 3. Maybe someone has another even better idea... :-) BTW searching the http://gatos.sf.net project pages *just once more* for clues when writing this reply i happend to find this http://www.reades.com/radeon.html HOWTO which gives some hints on how to proceed with the GATOS stuff.

Re: [Freevo-users] has anybody a clean modules.conf for btaudio,tvmixer,alsa (e.g. ens1371),em8300 with correct dsp mappings ?
Thanks so far, so I've to clean up my modules.conf and keep attention of the module install order. No other chance to map the audio devices to /dev/dspx ? last questions: loading btaudio results at my computer in dsp1 for digital and dsp3 for analog I don't know what dsp2 is used for, any chance to get the mapped device using dsp2 ? Last but not least I've to link the em8300-ma-0 to a free dsp device (for eg working xine audio out to the H+. Is this correct ? I need a simple command to see the used devices mapped to dsp. btaudio mappings are listed in the kernel message log when loading the module, but what is with the rest. I'm not very firm with alsa/oss development but there must be a simple command. I had to know which hardware device occupied my dsp2. What's the difference between btaudio and tvaudio ? Here are some of my loaded modules: tvaudio12640 0 (autoclean) (unused) bttv 95552 0 msp340015632 1 (autoclean) snd-seq-midi3520 0 (unused) snd-seq-midi-event 3264 0 [snd-seq-midi] snd-seq38124 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event] btaudio10272 0 snd-pcm-oss37220 0 snd-mixer-oss 11392 0 [snd-pcm-oss] snd-ens137111556 0 snd-pcm56192 0 [snd-pcm-oss snd-ens1371] snd-timer 14208 0 [snd-seq snd-pcm] snd-rawmidi12480 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-ens1371] snd-seq-device 3956 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq snd-rawmidi] snd-ac97-codec 35232 0 [snd-ens1371] snd28384 0 [snd-seq-midi snd-seq-midi-event snd-seq snd-pcm-oss snd-mixer-oss snd-ens1371 snd-pcm snd-timer snd-rawmidi s nd-seq-device snd-ac97-codec] ide-scsi9088 0 sr_mod 14008 0 (autoclean) em8300 42660 0 (autoclean) adv717x 2944 0 (autoclean) (unused) cdrom 28800 0 (autoclean) [sr_mod] rtc 6044 0 ppdev 7748 0 (autoclean) tvmixer 3360 1 (autoclean) tuner 9476 1 (autoclean) i2c-algo-bit8492 3 (autoclean) [bttv em8300] videodev5536 3 (autoclean) [bttv] i2c-isa 1284 0 (autoclean) (unused) i2c-viapro 4040 0 (autoclean) (unused) i2c-proc6688 0 [it87] i2c-core 15016 0 [tvaudio bttv msp3400 adv717x tvmixer tuner i2c-algo-bit it87 i2c-isa i2c-viapro i2c-proc] grip4056 0 (autoclean) (unused) gameport1468 0 [snd-ens1371 grip] snd-page-alloc 5572 0 [snd-pcm] joydev 7104 0 evdev 4160 0 (unused) I've tried to force btaudio to specific dsp-devices with the modules options, but it doesn't work. So loading without snd-pcm-oss module leads btaudio to dsp0 (digital) and dsp1 (analog). If snd-pcm-oss is loaded it results into dsp1 and dsp3. What's the role of tvmixer-module ? (system message: tvmixer can't find mixer device if loading after btaudio). In my opion there is no clear dsp mapping and documentation. Is there a command to list all used dsp devices ? I'm not aware of any; but the dsp devices are based on when the module are loaded. What I used to do was make sure snd-pcm-oss was loaded BEFORE I loaded btaudio, and then the devices always showed up as: /dev/dsp0 - ALSA OSS /dev/dsp1 - BTAudio device /dev/dsp2 - BTaudio device Then, it was just a matter of using the digital device and specifying 32000 as the frequency for mp1e. (dmesg will tell you which is which) Aubin I want a clear definition of the dsp devices because the record server needs an dsp device (mencoder option) and this must be the digital dsp of btaudio when recording with the internal bttv dsp. (remember to all:do not forget to record only with 32000Hz - dsp limitation and using the digital dsp). It seems that the options given by modinfo btaudio are not working. Maybe this is the wrong discussion list (a alsa/bttv problem) but freevo needs a clean configuration and so many devices are common in an homevideo pc. The module em8300 doesn't need a dsp mapping but it would be fine. Hopefully I didn't run into a mess up with my pre/post install modules. So an working example posted would me help with options due to alsa,tvmixer,btaudio and alsa-oss.

[Freevo-users] ivtv-fb and freevo
Has anyone used this combo successfully that could point me at some help? I also use tdfxfb as my console -- how can I make freevo use fb1 instead of fb0? __ _ ___ __ _ _ __ Ryan Novosielski - Rutgers College Class of 2004 |_) | | | /__ |_ |_) (_ 201 Easton Ave, New Brunswick - (732) 249-9695 | \ |_| | \_| |_ | \ __) AIM - H: RyanSki21, O: SainteX - ICQ UIN: 3239479 __ --- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ___ Freevo-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users
