Ignore the light, it's a visual indicator only. At some point we'll get back to

Don't top-post. The protocol is to reply underneath the previous email.

Ben confirm the patch works correctly for him also, so I suspect you have some 
kind of build or installation problem. Maybe your missing firmware?

No indicator light - I know this is probably just a bit set somewhere
that turns on/off the light and has nothing to do with actual operation
of the card, but thought I would mention it.

using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 53900 Hz
video pid 0x0041, audio pid 0x0044
status 00 | signal 7fe2 | snr  | ber  | unc  |
status 00 | signal 008c | snr 0082 | ber  | unc  |
last line repeats indefinitely.I hit ^c.

tried a second time - now all lines match last line and again I hit ^c.
also the same as the second line for the other two channels.

Something I forgot to mention, if you remove the card with the system
running linux it results in a freeze with a blinking caps lock led (btw
it's a hp dv9208nr laptop). It's ok under windows (32bit). I am running
64 bit linux.

If I insert the card after booting linux without it, the lines
referencing the card do not get added to dmesg's output, and the /dev
entries do not appear. udevd issue or driver?


Hot swap is not supported, always cold boot with the device inserted.



I don't have any other expresscards that I could plug-in to see if hot
swap works on other things.

oops on the reply list. It has been a long time since I wrote to a mail

plain text from html mail. 


I tested a 77001 D3C0 rev and it doesn't locked for me either.

This used to work. Either the xc3028 or s5h1409 driver has a regression.

RE: Hauppauge HVR-1500 (aka HP RM436AA#ABA)

2009-04-20 Thread Thomas Nicolai

My card shows similar dmesg and similar activity (no lights come on, scans take 
a long time under mythtv)  Iget 6 or 7 channels in Wintv V6 in windows and 4 in 
MCE in windows.  I do need to get my antenna up higher, but I should be able to 
get the same channels in mythtv as I can under windows.

I will try a fake channels.conf if someone can post one so I can get an idea 
what it should look like.

2009-04-20 Thread Steven Toth


Step 2. What happens when you try to use azap and what does syslog subsequently 
look like?


- Steve
Since there is no channels.conf file by default,  in the past, I have 
tried using w_scan to generate one.


If you know MCE works then put you zip into antennaweb.org and find out the 
physical channels and create a channels.conf by hand. Match the channels that 
work on MCE mentally with one or two channels you want to tune under linux.


So, under MCE find a major network ABC, NBC or CBS that works perfectly for you 
then locate the RF channel on antenna web.org.


Report back here with the RF channel reported by antennaweb for a couple of 
channels and I'll help you with a fake channels.conf.


This slowly scans all through all frequencies, though the light on the 
tuner card does not come on. At the end it says no channels found and 
does not create the channels.conf file.
While I am trying to tune in over-the-air signals in a fairly rural 
area, the card works on 20+ channels in mce.


Agreed, w_scan not working is interesting.



Today, I just used a channels.conf file for broadcast channels in a 
different us city which I found posted online and tuned to an arbitrary 
channel. Still no activity light. status fields in azap ouput are 0 
signals and noise both 87.


But the good news is that dmesg says it loaded the firmware for at least 
part of the card:

snip.
[12250.084481] firmware: requesting xc3028-v27.fw
[12250.113053] xc2028 3-0061: Loading 80 firmware images from 
xc3028-v27.fw, type: xc2028 firmware, ver 2.7
[12250.140031] xc2028 3-0061: Loading firmware for type=BASE (1), id 
.
[12251.105854] xc2028 3-0061: Loading firmware for type=D2633 DTV6 ATSC 
(10030), id .

snip


This is good news, the card and driver look fine. You probably just need a 
channels.conf (and perhaps w_scan has a bug?).


I don't use w_scan so I can't comment much on this.



Thank you so much for looking at this. I cannot begin to tell you how 
much I appreciate it. I hope it is just something small, or something I 
am doing wrong that is keeping this from working.


Probably.



Ben
p.s. sorry about the faux-pas

I think I may not have the debug=1 options turned on right now. I will 
turn them on and re-post if that would help you.

Connect the card.

Cold boot the system, boot linux, use the dmesg command.

Do you see any evidence of the cx23885 driver recognizing your card?

Use the lspci -vn command to display attached PCI(e) devices, is the card 
present?

Thanks, initialization looks good.

Step 2. What happens when you try to use azap and what does syslog subsequently 
look like?

The code compiles. Okay, great.  Can anyone actually use this thing in
Linux? I can't on my 1-year-old HP dv-6629. Thank you.


Or, you could both discuss your issues openly on the list and perhaps someone 
may have an idea as to why your having specific issues.
