[linux-dvb] Twinhan VP-1030C Diseq problem
Hi All, after upgrading my current Sempron system to an Athlon X2 I have some strange issues with my Twinhan VP-1030C. Tuning different channels on the Astra system is no problem. Also switching to Hotbird Is working fine. If I try to switch back from Hotbird to Astra this is not working anymore. The card tries to tune the frequency but does not change the LNB. I tried my TT budget card Without any problems so I moved back to my old Sempron system to see if the card is the root cause. Sempron system still working fine. Booting the system with non SMP configuration did also not help either. Is there an know solution to this? Is anybody else having the same issues? I have read at least two articles regarding to a similar problem in the internet from the last year - however without any solution. I am trying to find out now if the diseq commands are send at all on the system with the problems. I was not able to figure out how I can see debug messages regarding to frequency tuning or diseqc command switching. Can someone point me to the right direction how I can enable the debug message? Also is there some way to do a full text search over the linux-dvb list?

VMWare and similar communicate to the host OS through the network, AFAIK. So maybe it would be possible to write a server-client to make it possible to run the DVB USB device on a Windows-guest, stream the whole TS over the network to the host OS and have a little server/client to change frequency and start/stop streaming. In Linux (or other non-windows host) you would probably have a virtual DVB device for a client so that it works in any application. It's horrifying and nasty, I wouldn't really like to use it myself ATM (I prefer buying a natively supported device even if I own an unsupported one already), but if there really wouldn't be any other way (e.g. no hope for a native driver), it may be an option to some.

I eventually moved the card to different slots, uninstall and re-install the driver after each time you move it and eventually I found a slot that it worked on. I dont believe that I saw the same problem under Linux. I think it had something to do with IRQ's and the way windows handles them, but not sure.

This is a matter of practical choice however, not ideology. I honestly feel that the service provided to me by this OS is superior to others for my purposes. It is the right tool for most jobs. At the same time I recognize that there are some aspects and tools only available on other operating systems that are very useful and have no open source equivalent. This is the case for several of the DVB applications ( e.g. http://coolstf.com) In the end I would like to upgrade my mythTV backend to include DVB-S2 streams, but in the mean time I'd like to make sure that my investment won't sit idle while I wait for those with the skills to develop drivers and tools to do so. (I am not one of these people) For initial tuning, tracking and setup of satellite dishes and associated gear, the tools available under windows are already functional and are helpful when configuring your dishes before use. I hope to integrate my new DVB-S2 gear into my mythTV solution and simply would like to know if the USB version of the Technotrend device will work. Anyone? Will the Technotrend S2-3600 HDTV-S2 USB 2.0 work with the drivers currently under development by Manu? Thanks again and best regards. ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

Currently, No. Will need to know what components are inside, to find out whether it can be supported. ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
Re: [linux-dvb] Technotrend S2-3600 HDTV-S2 USB 2.0
What would be the process for this? Does the developer need direct access to the hardware, or is it a simple matter of looking at a couple of chipsets and modifying some code appropriately? (Please excuse my ignorance in this) If it were a practical endeavor, I would be willing to purchase the hardware and do testing if someone will commit to modifying the drivers appropriately.

If there are drivers for those, supporting the device will be relatively easy. If there are no drivers, they will have to be written by either getting the specs and writing or reverse engineering and writing. That is much more work. If the chips are not supported already, no specs are given and nobody feels like reverse engineering, it will never be supported. If the chips are supported already, it can be supported in a day (at least very fast). All depends on what is there to see inside the device, it's impossible to say anything now. ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

Source versus sores. Was it a joke or a mistake? I guess that timecop was trying to be a little bit rude and funny. > Am I allowed to rant on some people on this list? It is hard to stop you.

[linux-dvb] extra switch for tzap
I don't call myself a programmer (I've never seen any C guide), but somehow I figured out how to add an extra switch to tzap to make it print the status in (human-readable) decimal instead of hex. It is attached. It would be really nice if this would make it into the dvb-apps on linuxtv.. Talking about that, could anybody tell me the minimal and maximal and/or possible values for status, signal, snr, ber and uncorrected? If I would know them I could try to make the numbers more human-readable (eg signal ranging from 0 to 99 or so). /* tzap -- DVB-T zapping utility */ /* * Added recording to a file * arguments: * * -t timeout (seconds) * -o filename output filename (use -o - for stdout) * -s only print summary * -S run silently (no output) * * Bernard Hatt 24/2/04 */ #define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64 #define _LARGEFILE_SOURCE 1 #define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE 1 #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include static char FRONTEND_DEV [80]; static char DEMUX_DEV [80]; static char DVR_DEV [80]; static int timeout_flag=0; static int silent=0,timeout=0; static int decread=0; static int exit_after_tuning; #define CHANNEL_FILE "channels.conf" #define ERROR(x...) \ do {\ fprintf(stderr, "ERROR: "); \ fprintf(stderr, x); \ fprintf (stderr, "\n"); \ } while (0) #define PERROR(x...)\ do {\ fprintf(stderr, "ERROR: "); \ fprintf(stderr, x); \ fprintf (stderr, " (%s)\n", strerror(errno)); \ } while (0) typedef struct { char *name; int value; } Param; static const Param inversion_list [] = { { "INVERSION_OFF", INVERSION_OFF }, { "INVERSION_ON", INVERSION_ON }, { "INVERSION_AUTO", INVERSION_AUTO } }; static const Param bw_list [] = { { "BANDWIDTH_6_MHZ", BANDWIDTH_6_MHZ }, { "BANDWIDTH_7_MHZ", BANDWIDTH_7_MHZ }, { "BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ", BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ } }; static const Param fec_list [] = { { "FEC_1_2", FEC_1_2 }, { "FEC_2_3", FEC_2_3 }, { "FEC_3_4", FEC_3_4 }, { "FEC_4_5", FEC_4_5 }, { "FEC_5_6", FEC_5_6 }, { "FEC_6_7", FEC_6_7 }, { "FEC_7_8", FEC_7_8 }, { "FEC_8_9", FEC_8_9 }, { "FEC_AUTO", FEC_AUTO }, { "FEC_NONE", FEC_NONE } }; static const Param guard_list [] = { {"GUARD_INTERVAL_1_16", GUARD_INTERVAL_1_16}, {"GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32", GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32}, {"GUARD_INTERVAL_1_4", GUARD_INTERVAL_1_4}, {"GUARD_INTERVAL_1_8", GUARD_INTERVAL_1_8}, {"GUARD_INTERVAL_AUTO", GUARD_INTERVAL_AUTO} }; static const Param hierarchy_list [] = { { "HIERARCHY_1", HIERARCHY_1 }, { "HIERARCHY_2", HIERARCHY_2 }, { "HIERARCHY_4", HIERARCHY_4 }, { "HIERARCHY_NONE", HIERARCHY_NONE }, { "HIERARCHY_AUTO", HIERARCHY_AUTO } }; static const Param constellation_list [] = { { "QPSK", QPSK }, { "QAM_128", QAM_128 }, { "QAM_16", QAM_16 }, { "QAM_256", QAM_256 }, { "QAM_32", QAM_32 }, { "QAM_64", QAM_64 }, { "QAM_AUTO", QAM_AUTO } }; static const Param transmissionmode_list [] = { { "TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K", TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K }, { "TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K", TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K }, { "TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO", TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO } }; #define LIST_SIZE(x) sizeof(x)/sizeof(Param) static int parse_param (int fd, const Param * plist, int list_size, int *param) { char c; int character = 0; int _index = 0; while (1) { if (read(fd, &c, 1) < 1) return -1; /* EOF? */ if ((c == ':' || c == '\n') && plist->name[character] == '\0') break; while (toupper(c) != plist->name[character]) { _index++; plist++; if (_index >= list_size) /* parse error, no valid */ return -2; /* parameter name found */ } character++; } *param = plist->value; return 0; } static int parse_int(int fd, int *val) { char number[11]; /* 2^32 needs 10 digits... */ int character = 0; while (1) { if (read(fd, &number[character], 1) < 1) return -1; /* EOF? */ if (number[character] == ':' || number[character] == '\n') { number[character] = '\0'; break; } if (!isdigit(number[character])) return -2; /* parse error, not a digit... */ character++; if (character > 10) /* overflow, number too big */ return -3; /* to fit in 32 bit */ }; *val = strtol(number, NULL, 10); return 0; } static int find_channel(int fd, const char *channel) { int character = 0; while (1) { char c; if (read(fd, &c, 1) < 1) return -1; /* EOF! */ if ( '\n' == c ) /* start of line */ character = 0; else if ( character >= 0 ) { /* we are in the namefield */

The range and meaning of these values was specified in an older revision of the dvb api. It's no longer specified, besides almost no driver followed the former specification.
