The HVR3000 adds support to the saa and cx88 tree's for multiple exclusive frontends on a single bus, enabling applications to open either a DVB-T or DVB-S frontend. It's proof of concept code. I asked for feedback very early on the new mechanism and the general consensus was positive. However, the tree contains changes to the DVB frontend framework and should be reviewed more closely prior to any updates/rework/merge activity. Given the current hybrid tuner project, it would be wise to leave the HVR3000 and HVR4000 tree's as-is. These product use hybrid tuners FMD1216 and will benefit from the tuner refactoring projects. - Steve ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

[linux-dvb] Merging hvr3000 into main branch
Hello, I've been using steve's branch for hauppauge hvr3000 for a while. I had to compile against kernel 2.6.18, as Robert Longbottom suggested and it worked. I just found issues using DiSEqC although I loaded the isl6421 module as somebody wrote in the list. Now i have the trouble with another device, it's a Pinnacle 400e. Using the drivers from steve's branch i got a "Unknown symbol in module" error message, and dmesg gives dvb_usb_ttusb2: disagrees about version of symbol dvb_usb_generic_rw dvb_usb_ttusb2: Unknown symbol dvb_usb_generic_rw dvb_usb_ttusb2: disagrees about version of symbol dvb_usb_device_init dvb_usb_ttusb2: Unknown symbol dvb_usb_device_init I tried diff'ing the main branch with steve'e one and patching the main branch but i got the same errors when i try to load the module for pinnacle 400e (dvb_usb_ttusb2) As i'm using both cards in the same machine I'd like to know if somebody knows when it'll be commited steve's branch with dvb-s support to the main branch. Otherwise maybe somebody could suggest me howto merge them properly.
