Re: [mythtv-users] Fwd: PVR 250, Picture, No Sound..IVTV problem? Read archives....tried most everything, but, am stuck...

2005-03-26 Thread Ross
Just remove the kernel msp3400 and rerun depmod, then there'll be no
question. (the ivtv one will be in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/extra/).

Reading through the history, you've got the line:
 options ivtv ivtv-debug=0 mpg_buffers=90
in modules.conf. Change ivtv-debug=0 to ivtv-debug=1 which should give
more information. Then rerun the tac script.

Cheers,

Ross

md5sum shows for the good one:

3e85757b6483f1b975a727d957afa98f /lib/modules/2.6.9-chw-4/extra/msp3400.ko

Often the ivtv supplied module will look like msp3400-ivtv.ko, or be in
a directory simliar to the first one I listed.

My log on this box is in /var/log/everything/current

I ran the script...returned no output.

Am I aiming at the wrong spot? I don't have a /var/log/messages file.

I've read about the wrong msp3400 modulebut, how do you know which one it 
is using?

I am on Gentoo...and just used emerge ivtv to get the drivers.

Last box I built...this put everything in the correct place...and it 
worked..sound and video...

Thanks for the patience..as you can tell, I'm a bit of a noob for all 
this...trying to learn.

Thanks in advance for any further suggestions...

2005-03-21 Thread Ross
What's your IVTV output? Do the modules load cleanly? 

Get it with:

tac /var/log/messages |
sed -n '/=\ \ END INIT IVTV\ \ =/,/= START INIT IVTV =/p;
   /= START INIT IVTV =/q' |
tac

Also, use modprobe to load the modules instead of insmod. Make sure
you don't have a msp3400 module from the actual kernel source, use the
one from the IVTV drivers.

Cheers,

Ross

If you are not getting sound have you tried adding the following line
to /etc/mplayer/mplayer

ao alsa9

I think that is the format.

Hello..thanks for the reply. I've seen someone else is posting with  
same type problemswith same advice.

I'm using a gentoo distro...
I went to /etc/modules.d/aliases, and added the suggested line. I did  
modules-update command...and this indeed put the line in my  
/etc/modules.conf

However, I still get picture but, no sound when playing directly from  
mplayer  (mplayer /dev/video0), nor with mythtv.

Have I missed something else...would this require a computer reboot or  
is there another command to refresh a process this affects?

Thanks in advance..

Hello all!!
First, I pretty much had myth 0.15 working on a slower boxbut,
sound was
choppy no matter what I did...so, I built another box, ASUS
motherboard,
Athlon processor
servername 2.6.8-gentoo-r8 # uname -a

500 MB ram
Audigy2 soundcard
Alsa
Other than that...I used the same working prv250 card, and  
harddrives.
I'm
running Gentoo with a 2.6 kernel

I'm trying to get myth 0.16 running. I've to pretty much everything
going on
it with the exception of sound with the video. On music...sounds  
plays
great.

I can get myth to record video, just no sound. I can watch tv live,
but, no
sound.
I tried mplayer /dev/video0picture, but, no sound.  So, I'm
guessing it is
ivtv error. When I start the mplayer...I get no errors...it appears  
to
be
trying to play sound.

I have ivtv 0.2.0_rc3-r3 (I emerged with gentoo's package mgmt
system...it
says it is already set up to run with pvr 250/350and it worked
last time
before rebuilding box )
I've been reading through the archives, and the links to the
wiki...and have
tried the following:
n /etc/modules.conf add or edit this line:
options msp3400 once=1 simple=1 standard=XX
or on the command line, type:
insmod msp3400 once=1 simple=1 standard=XX
where XX is one of:
0x20 USA, Argentina
0x21 USA, Argentina
However, doing the insmod msp3400 gave the following:
2.6.8-gentoo-r8 # insmod msp3400 once=1 simple=1 standard=0x20
insmod: can't read 'msp3400': No such file or directory
However lsmod shows I have tht module:

(I have not tried to get lirc working yet...and am just playing to my  
monitor
right now.)

I tried the suggestions on this thread that seemed to be the most  
relavent:
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/80563? 
search_string=mplayer%20pvr%20250%20no%20sound;#80563

But these failed...
I checked and my msp3400 seems to be in the correct place
From the /lib/modules/2.6.8-gentoo-r8 directory I do:
find . -name "msp3400*"
./extra/msp3400.ko
./extra/msp3400.ko_old
./kernel/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko
./kernel/drivers/media/video/msp3400.ko_old
(the _old files are just where I backed up the original files...in  
case I was
to try to move them...but, I've not done anythig here as of yet)

When I do:
2.6.8-gentoo-r8 # modinfo msp3400
parm:   probe:List of adapter,address pairs to scan  
additionally
parm:   probe_range:List of adapter,start-addr,end-addr  
triples to
scan additionally
parm:   ignore:List of adapter,address pairs not to scan
parm:   ignore_range:List of adapter,start-addr,end-addr  
triples not
to scan
parm:   force:List of adapter,address pairs to boldly assume  
to be
present

Now according to the manual I got from Mythtv...it seems to indicate  
that
since I don't have parm: standard int, that I may be using the wrong
modulebut, I'm at a loss on this issue...

I've seen where myth does seem to try to mute things and have toggled  
the
ivtvctl -y mute=0with no avail.
