[linux-dvb] Deinterlacing UK DVB-T
I see similar things (on dvb-t) on eg five life and five us, e specially movies on five us. I assume that the transmission might be in 540 horisontal pixels. Which channels do you see this on? I've just uploaded an example where it is easy to see it: http://xoomer.alice.it/enodetti/log/lines.avi It is the beginning of Star Wars from ITV1 (5MB) Look at the text scrolling up and you'll see the lines easily.

[linux-dvb] Deinterlacing UK DVB-T
Hi, I receive DVB-T in the UK and I'd like to improve the image quality. I think it is a deinterlacing issue. I'm currently using in mplayer vf=pp=lb And it improves the situation for the fine details. But I still get some effects, on macro blocks. There are like horizontal bands (maybe 0.5 cm thick on my 16 inches screen) and if one looks closely enough, it is possible to see the separation between those bands. Which filters are you using?

That sounds like quantisation artifacts rather than interlacing. Some channels in particular are using rather low bitrates so this should come as no surprise. Is there a way to get rid of it? If I watch my TV I can't find those lines. It's like the TV is able to smooth edges, maybe with some averaging. It happens with all applications (kaffeine, mplayer, xine) and it looks to be worse on BBC that Channel4 ( friends). ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

Re: [linux-dvb] removal em28xx from linuxtv.org

Re: [linux-dvb] Indoor aerial for DVB-T
I think it is an interesting mail, so I copy it back in the mailing list. On 5/2/07, Tobias Stoeber [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Regarding the One For All Aerial it seems, that it can be positioned either vertically or horizontally. So you should first try to (if you didn't already) to get to know, which polarisation the signal from your dvb-t station has. Make sure it's placed right, e.g. if its horizontally polarised it should be like in the small picture, if its vertically polarized it should be like in the large picture. I live in London, and I get signal from Crystal Palace, and I had better results with the horizontal position. Next I would try different location within the flat. Your aerial has a 20 dB amplifier. Unfortunately, if the original signal is bad / has much noise, a more powerful amplifier will not be of much help (you will just amplify the noise/interference as much a the signal itself). I think it is the case. Someone in the building mentioned that there is an iron structure that kills all signals. People at the lower floors have problems to tune a radio. Thanks for the info about the aerial. I'll try to understand better your message. It looks to me that there are different shapes, the one in your picture looks VERY different than the One For All, and the ones your linked from Amazon. Do you recommend a compact one (maybe more elegant) or a trditional shape? Or it does not matter? For some testing I would buy (or try to borrow) an large outdoor aerial and search for positions, where I would get I good signal. Then I would try to use an indoor or small outdoor aerial. I mysqlf use both an self-built log.-periodic dipole antenna/aerial (LPDA) and a small indoor aerial. A picture of the LPDA you'll find here (if my home server is online/working ;) - usually during working hours) http://www.extern.softclick-it.de/~tobi/public/tmp/dvbt/dvb-t-lpda-1-det.jpg http://www.extern.softclick-it.de/~tobi/public/tmp/dvbt/dvb-t-lpda-1.jpg The indoor antenna I bought was about 10 Euro (~7 £) and is a THOMSON ANT D220. I can really recommend it (but my LPDA is still a little bit better, but also larger [length 96 cm, height 32 cm]). In a test report (here in Germany from Stiftung Warentest) your aerial scored 12th place out of 20 aerials, with resonable but not good reception (antenna gain). The Thomson got 3rd place (lost some points because it has some problems when mounted somewhere without screws due to it's thick cable - I just replaced it). Placed on 1st place was Hirschmann Zifa D-16, 2nd Philips SBC TT350. Thanks for the info. I've found a cheap 2nd hand of the Philips. I will try it. Maybe you can also have a look at the follwing models (sorry for the link from amazon.de in German): AXING 1603 with 25-27 dB amplifier http://www.amazon.de/Axing-Flachantenne-Zimmerantenne-geeignet-Verst%C3%A4rker/dp/B000KU1FJ0/ref=sr_1_23/302-4850549-8840012?ie=UTF8s=ce-deqid=1178060712sr=8-23 Kathrein BZD 40 http://www.amazon.de/Kathrein-BZD-DVB-T-Outdoor-Antenne/dp/B000KPPXIO/ref=sr_1_43/302-4850549-8840012?ie=UTF8s=ce-deqid=1178060729sr=8-43 Well, good luck! ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

[linux-dvb] Re: Technotrend DVB-C C-1200 TT-Connect
As I said, it does work, but I don't think that its working correctly. I have tried under Gentoo and under Ubuntu Fiesty with 2.6.20 kernel, and under both, things start to eventually jitter slightly and every few seconds frames are dropped. This doesn't seem to happen under windows for some reason. The only difference that I can physically see is the LED colour on the front. I am not sure if USB 1.1 is capable of handling the mpeg2 stream. I suspect that windows is applying some compression that allows the stream to be able to be played without any speed issue. Short of looking at the module source and try to contact the original author, I am not sure where to find any further info. Hi, I've had a Hauppauge DEC T 2000 (dvb terrestrial) which worked on USB 1.1 and I did not have any problem with the bandwidth. I think it would be very unlikely that the board compresses the MPEG2 stream before sending it to the PC. It is more likely some settings are wrong. Maybe you could do something like http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/USBVideo sniff the windows USB stream and then compare it to what happens in linux. With some help from the guys in linuxtv.org, it could be possible to see if some settings are missing.

[linux-dvb] Re: Technotrend DVB-C C-1200 TT-Connect
I have one of these devices running under kernel 2.6.18 with MythTV (Gentoo). I am seeing a lot of artefacts and picture jitter while watching live tv. I suspect this has something to do with speed of USB 1.1. I am able to reboot into Windows and test the device with the original device drivers under ProgDVB. Under windows, I see no such artefacts or jitter and everything appears to work fine. One thing that I noticed though is that the LED on the front of the device changes to RED when watching a programme under Windows. Under Linux, the driver loads correctly, but the LED stays GREEN. I am battling to find any documentation with regard to what this means. Does anyone have any experience with this device who can point me in the right direction? Have you had similar problems etc? Any assistance would be much appreciated. Hi, I would like to buy the same card to receive DVB-C from Virgin Media in the UK.

[linux-dvb] kernel Oops while unloading the card
Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T usb2. kernel 2.6.18.2 latest v4l-dvb. I had (once) this Oops while unplugging the card with no apps accessing it. Is it possible that the code checking for the remote control should be stopped before unplugging the cable? The same as any application actually playing some video Why is the Oops occuring after the dvb-usb: Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T usb2 successfully deinitialized and disconnected. Shouldn't the driver be unloaded byt that time? What I mean is: should I always run make unload before unplugging? Or is it just an unlucky situation?

[linux-dvb] Re: DIB3000MC autosearch
There are 2 different things: 1) the value of seq: old driver used a table. Full autosearch (i.e. INVERSION_AUTO, TRANSMISSION_AUTO, GUARD_AUTO) = 11. No autosearch = 0 new driver. Autosearch = 7 (7 is not present in the old table), No autosearch = 0. (In the old table, autosearch for TRANSMISSION GUARD corresponds to 6) 2) how seq is written to the register 5 OLD DRIVER : (seq 0x0f) 4) | (1 8) line 286 here http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb?f=c8f23ba912d8;file=linux/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/dib3000mc.c;style=gitweb check macro DIB3000MC_SEQ_TPS(seq,1) line 71 here http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb?f=1bd99532ee0f;file=linux/drivers/media/dvb/frontends/dib3000mc_priv.h;style=gitweb NEW DRIVER : seq directly line 502 in the current version of dib3000mc.c As you said the value 11 does inversion search as well (which might be not needed), but I think the important issue is the second.

[linux-dvb] dib3000 (USB-ID 1822:3202 Twinhan) not tuning
Hi, I've got a dib3000mc and after the refactored tuner code changes I had some issues but they have been (almost all) solved in the current tip mercurial code. Which dib3000 do you have exactly? which code are you running? what is the problem exactly? Hi list, I recently updated my kernel from 2.6.14.16 to 2.6.18 and found out, that my Twinhan MagicBox won't tune anymore. Switching back to the old kernel solved the problem, but that's my favourite solution. I would like to find out why it dosn't work anymore. The one thing I found out is, that the problem was introduced by the refractored tuner code (changeset id: 0e988fec6587 @ hg/v4l-dvb @ linuxtv.org) or something, that's got to do with it. I would be very happy about any hint, that can help me fixing this issue.

Re: [linux-dvb] DiB3000MC : autosearch doesn't work
IIRC Patrick has the datasheet.
Is it held under some kind of non disclosure agreement?
Why don't we create a repository for all datasheets available. I think
the more people check the code, the better it is.
Also the old driver
http://castet.matthieu.free.fr/tmp/v4l-dvb-stk3000p-e5798f307b00.tar.gz
autosearch works for me.
I need an older kernel to try it. I'll do it tomorrow maybe.
I was trying to compare the 2 versions but it is very hard. The old
driver had a lot of #define s, while in the new one the are plenty of
magic numbers which are not easy to understand.
The following could be completely wrong, but this is as far as I got
to understand.
The only big difference I can see is about the channel which is used
before auto search starts. It is like an initial guess.
In the new code the initial guess is (regardless of the settings of
the channel required):
fchan.nfft = 1; fchan.guard = 0; fchan.nqam = 2;
fchan.vit_alpha = 1; fchan.vit_code_rate_hp = 2; fchan.vit_code_rate_lp = 2;
fchan.vit_hrch = 0; fchan.vit_select_hp = 1;
which means ( 8K, 1_32, QAM_64, 2_3 .).
I've changed the code to behave more similar to the old version, where
only the parameters XX_AUTO where given an initial guess (leaving the
others unchanged), which was
( 2K, 1_32, QPSK, 0 for FEC )
That way I can autosearch one parameter at a time and not all together.
In my tests the TRANSMISSION_MODE and the GUARD_INTERVAL cannot be autosearched.
This exaplains why I can auto search BBC ONE (2K, 1_32) and not the
HDTV (8K, 1_32), and when I give the guess the wrong value for the
GUARD INTERVAL it fails.
I still have to investigate something called (in the old driver)
DIB3000MC_REG_SEQ_TPS which seems to have something to do with
TRANSMISSION, GUARD and INVERSION.
Time to eat now.

[linux-dvb] DiB3000MC : autosearch doesn't work
I've done more investigation and tried to understand what scan does. Basically everything depends on the ability of the chip to tune a channel with parameters set to XXX_AUTO. So I was able to track down the problem (still don't know whether it is a problem or not) to this specific issue. This is BBC ONE in London uk-CrystalPalace.

Re: [linux-dvb] DiB3000MC : autosearch doesn't work
Thank for the explanation. I misunderstood the meaning of NONE and AUTO. I tried more to understand the behaviour of scan. Reading the code of scan it seems that any of the 2 FECs, when they are NONE, they are converted in AUTO before scanning. The initial scan file for uk-CrystalPalace is T 50583 8MHz 3/4 NONE QAM16 2k 1/32 NONE I've tried to change them to AUTO and apparently this is the maximum I could change: T 50583 AUTO 3/4 AUTO QAM16 2k 1/32 AUTO So the question is: what is special about the ones I cannot set to AUTO? I'm trying to understand why Kaffeine is not able to scan properly: kaffeine tries with the following settings inv:2 bw:0 fecH:9 fecL:9 mod:6 tm:2 gi:4 hier:4 which in the scan language is T frequency 8MHz AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO AUTO This is good for the HDTV channels (it works for scan as well) but for the standard I need to specify (at least) T 50583 AUTO 3/4 AUTO QAM16 2k 1/32 AUTO as I said before. As a reference this is one of the stardard channels: BBC ONE:50580:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_3_4:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:600:601:4164 while this is one working with AUTO ITV HD Trialb:52200:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_2_3:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:161:162:41029 Is there any substantial difference? Thanks On 10/22/06, Patrick Boettcher [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The original problem was not to set all parameters to wrong values (this is what you are doing NONE is wrong in this field, AUTO, 1/2, 2/3, 3/4 5/6 and 7/8 are valid) and then let the demod guess what might be correct, but to see if parameters set to AUTO are then really autosearched. So it seems that one has to specify 3/4 for the standard channels (QAM16 2k), while for HDTV channels (QAM64 8k) NONE is good enough. Good enough is not the correct term. This is not a tuneable parameter but a fixed one telling you which FEC is used by the boardcaster. ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
[linux-dvb] DiB3000MC : autosearch doesn't work
I've tried to AUTO scan since there seems to be changes in the DIB3000MC code. I've got a WinTV NOVA T USB 2. Kaffeine: It scans properly when using uk-CrystalPalace It can only AUTO scan (0, +167k, -167K) the HDTV trial channels (ITV, Ch4, BBC, Five) scan from dvb-apps Everything ok with the default file uk-CrystalPalace T 50583 8MHz 3/4 NONE QAM16 2k 1/32 NONE But if I try T 50583 8MHz NONE NONE QAM16 2k 1/32 NONE it does not work. For the HDTV channels I use in scan T 55400 8MHz NONE NONE QAM64 1/32 NONE which works. So it seems that one has to specify 3/4 for the standard channels (QAM16 2k), while for HDTV channels (QAM64 8k) NONE is good enough. Could it be the reason why Kaffeine can only AUTO scan HDTV channels? ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

Hi, I had problems tuning a TTUSB DEC-2000T. I can tune using tzap, while other applications like mplayer, dvbstream fail. Debugging the code I found that the only difference is in the call DMX_SET_PES_FILTER. tzap uses DMX_PES_AUDIO and DMX_PES_VIDEO while dvbstream (and mplayer) uses DMX_PES_OTHER. Changing the code in dvbstream (and mplayer) I was able to tune. Reading the code in ttusb_dec.c I cannot see any support for DMX_PES_OTHER and at one point DMX_TS_PES_OTHER (which is not quite the same) is explicitly not supported ( line 990 ).

IIRC DMX_PES_OTHER is the correct pid filter, while DMX_PES_AUDIO and _VIDEO were used only by FF cards This is the same thing I've read. The card has a MPEG-decoder but it is not possible to use it from USB (it works when connecting the card to television), so I am not sure whether it is a FF card or not.

I've found where is the problem in the Kernel oops while using the

In the following function

for all pointers involved and the one that is NULL is st meaning
that d-priv is NULL.
I've tried and the error occurs both while playing TV and while not playing.
The rest of the function works properly. Here is the output when I
block the null pointer dereference (with debug enabled).

[linux-dvb] dvbstream and pid 8192
I'm trying to save the full TS with my Hauppauge Win TV Nova T USB2.
I'm using dvbstream and the special pid 8192.
This is the command line
./dvbstream -f 50580 -I 2 -qam 16 -cr 3_4 -crlp 3_4 -bw 8 -o:temp.xxx 8192
(uk-CrystalPalace dvb-t for BBC)
and the generated file is empty.
Reading in the mailing list in the last 3/4 months it seems that the
fimware must support this feature.
But reading the source code it seems to me that there is a problem.
Basically a map of pid - file is created so to save each pid in the
right file.
The problem is that when requesting the pid 8192 the map contains the
entry 8192 while none of the pid returned by the card is 8192 (the
opposite would be strange...).
This is the code in the main loop
for (j = 0; j MAX_CHANNELS; j++) {
if (pids_map[i].pids[j] == pid) {
at line 1033 of dvbstream.c.
In the debugger I can see that pid gets the values of the actual
pids present in the stream, while pids_map[i].pids[j] is 8192 or -1.
Has it ever worked for anybody? How? Maybe not saving to a file, but
specifying another output?
But it is trivial to fix it, one just has to read from the dvr and
write everything to a file, running the line
write(fd for the full stream, buf, TS_SIZE);
in any case.
At least that creates a file and with mplayer I can pick the pid I want.
What is the best way to achieve it?
Tuning the right frequency and at the same time copying
/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 to a specified file?
Thanks

I'm trying to save the full TS with my Hauppauge Win TV Nova T USB2.
I'm using dvbstream and the special pid 8192.
This is the command line
./dvbstream -f 50580 -I 2 -qam 16 -cr 3_4 -crlp 3_4 -bw 8 -o:temp.xxx
8192
(uk-CrystalPalace dvb-t for BBC)
and the generated file is empty.
Reading in the mailing list in the last 3/4 months it seems that the
fimware must support this feature.
But reading the source code it seems to me that there is a problem.
Basically a map of pid - file is created so to save each pid in the
right file.
The problem is that when requesting the pid 8192 the map contains the
entry 8192 while none of the pid returned by the card is 8192 (the
opposite would be strange...).
This is the code in the main loop
for (j = 0; j MAX_CHANNELS; j++) {
if (pids_map[i].pids[j] == pid) {
at line 1033 of dvbstream.c.
In the debugger I can see that pid gets the values of the actual
pids present in the stream, while pids_map[i].pids[j] is 8192 or -1.
Has it ever worked for anybody? How? Maybe not saving to a file, but
specifying another output?
But it is trivial to fix it, one just has to read from the dvr and
write everything to a file, running the line
write(fd for the full stream, buf, TS_SIZE);
in any case.
At least that creates a file and with mplayer I can pick the pid I want.
What is the best way to achieve it?
Tuning the right frequency and at the same time copying
/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 to a specified file?
dvbstream -f .. -o 8192 stream.ts

[linux-dvb] Re: Hauppauge WinTV NOVA T USB2 not working any more
Since the new code is using the value of agc-setup both in dib3000mc_write_word(state, 37, agc-setup); (di3000mc.c LINE 374 in function dib3000mc_init) and reg_52 = state-cfg-agc-setup 0xfefb; (dib3000mc.c LINE 155 in function dib3000mc_setup_pwm_state) while the old one was using it only for the former; the best thing would be to know from a datasheet (Patrick do you have one?) what is the relationship between those 2 settings. Trying the various patches it seems to me that as soon as one of the 2 lines above changes value, the card stops working. Mario I attach a patch that leave the good values for both NOVA-T 500 and AverTV DVB-T USB 2.0.

Hi Patrick,
this is the patch that works for me. It is against the current v4l-dvb

from the dibx000_agc_config.

Re: [linux-dvb] Hauppauge WinTV NOVA T USB2 not working any more
I've tried the patch you sent to the mailing list but there is no difference. Reading the code it seems to me that the problem is into the value of agc-setup If I revert changes to dib3000mc_setup_pwm_state (and I do not apply the patch) the card works again. It looks to me (just reading the code, no idea of what the values mean) that the value stored in agc-setup is now used twice. 1) in dib3000mc_init (register 37) 2) in dib3000mc_setup_pwm_state (reg_52) in the new version of the code the same value is shared for those 2 purposes, while in the old code the 2 functions used different values. If I am not wrong, with the latest patch dib3000mc_setup_pwm_state gets the same values af before wihle dib3000mc_init does not. I don't know whether it makes sense but in my case it matters. Any idea? Hi, Mario, can you please try the attached patch and see, if this fixes your problem ? Thanks Jose for finding it. I knew I would forget this thing when changing the set_pwm-function...

Anyway, no way to scan or tune Channel 4, ITV or five HDTV. BBC HD1 works, but it seems that my laptop if too slow: mplayer keeps saying that it is using 400% of the CPU and image goes very slow.

Why? Because with the dib3000mc_attach (and with the future coming dib7000m_attach and dib7000p_attach) we can attach more than one demod at the same time - will be used on devices arriving late fall/autumn).

[linux-dvb] Error unloading WinTV NOVA T USB2
Hi, I've started using again my Win TV NOVA T USB2 after a while (1 month) and I've noticed this strange behaviour. When I unload the modules (either by unplugging the USB cable or doing a make unload) I cannot remove any more the modules dib3000mc and dvb_pll. Afterwards, if I plug it in again, nothing happens any more. I've tried more times and the behaviour does not change. My configuration is Fedora 5 Kernel compiled from source 2.6.17.8 V4L as of now (mercurial) WinTV NOVA T USB2 (I think if the first revision since it used to work with the old firmware). I have to add that this is the first day I've used the 2nd firmware, which I've found in http://thadathil.net:8000/dvb/fw/dvb-usb/ This is the output of dmesg Aug 20 22:30:47 thinkpad kernel: usb 4-4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 Aug 20 22:30:47 thinkpad kernel: usb 4-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Aug 20 22:30:47 thinkpad kernel: dvb-usb: found a 'Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T usb2' in cold state, will try to load a firmware Aug 20 22:30:47 thinkpad kernel: dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-nova-t-usb2-02.fw' Aug 20 22:30:47 thinkpad kernel: usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_nova_t_usb2 Aug 20 22:30:48 thinkpad kernel: usb 4-4: USB disconnect, address 3 Aug 20 22:30:48 thinkpad kernel: dvb-usb: generic DVB-USB module successfully deinitialized and disconnected.
