Sorry, VersaMail on Treo smartphone doesn't do blockquote, And it would've 
taken forever to add  before every line, hence my adding quotes around 
Pascal's comments.

Pascal, sounds like Duncan has the best idea for getting it to work without 
upgrading your hardware.  Good Luck, and let us know how it goes.  There may be 
others in similar situations who may want to use a MediaMVP as a quiet front 
end.

Re: [Freevo-users] ivtv problem with HVR-1300

2007-09-07 Thread Pirlouwi
I have seen in ivtv-devel mailing list:
Re: [ivtv-devel] Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1300 Milos Prudek Tue Mar 13 12:13:23
2007

  is Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-300 card supported by ivtv? Are there any plans
  to support it?

 There is support for this card in the kernel (the cx88 driver). It is not
 yet completely stable as far as I know, so your mileage may vary.


I have tried only one VideoGroup with record_group=None, but the error is
still the same.
What equivalent shell command could I try to test the setfmt() command that
fails outside of python and freevo?
In other words, it seems that the cx8800 is effectively an ivtv driver, but
how can I detect what is wrong with this ioctl?

Here is my local config now:
VIDEO_GROUPS = [
 VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0',
adev='/dev/adsp',
input_type='Composite1',
input_num='1',
tuner_type='external',
tuner_norm='PAL',
desc='Entree Video Composite',
group_type='ivtv',
record_group=None
  )
]

TV_CHANNELS = [
   ('Composite', 'Composite Input', ''),
]



 Are you sure that the HVR-1300 is supported by the ivtv driver?

 First, can you try with just one VideoGroup as only one per tuner/vdev
 is supported and change record_group=None.

 IIRC it is possible to record from the tuner and composite inputs but
 I'm not sure how this has been done. Possible with the VCR_PRE and POST
 commands and calling the ivtv control tool (v4l2-ctl)

  Here is my local_conf relevant part:
 
  VIDEO_GROUPS_ = [

   adev=None,

   tuner_norm='pal',
   tuner_chanlist='us-cable',
   desc='Cable',
   group_type='ivtv',
   record_group=0),
VideoGroup(vdev='/dev/video0',
   adev='/dev/adsp',
   input_type='external',
   input_num=1,
   tuner_norm='pal',
   desc='Composite',
   group_type='ivtv',
   record_group=0)

By reading these traces, it seems that the running driver is cx8800.
do you thing that this driver is compatible with freevo ?
