 Both versions (DVB and kernel [bttv/cx88xx] can be obtained from the new
 pcHDTV driver page at pchdtv.freedesktop.org.  The cvs checkout of the
 pchdtv-drivers tree has both in them, and should compile without having
 to get the cvs versions of video4linux and the dvb source (The checkout
 has a working version of these in it).

 Although DVB support is there, I still recommend using the kernel drive
 until the rest of the HDTV code for myth is moved into the DVB recorder.
 My guess is about 2 months for this to be complete and stable.

 Functionally, the drivers on the site for DVB and kernel are identical.
 Both have QAM support.  Stick with kernel for a bit longer and you will
 be better off.

 --Brandon


I initially tried the V4L2 driver, but could not find any documentation for
how to use it with QAM.

I then tried the DVB driver, and I think it is working.  Taylor's azap
program reports a signal lock, but I am unable to capture any video even
using azap's -r option.

It is possible that all my Albuquerque Comcast digital channels are
encrypted.

Is there any documentation anywhere on using the HD-3000 with the V4L2
drivers for QAM?

Thanks,

John

 And note that the bttv v4l driver built from the pcHDTV 2.0 tarball never
 registers the digital side of the card for me, which I suppose may be because
 I'm not running a 2.6.11 kernel (which the wiki says is needed), but the docs
 say everything should work with the latest FC3 kernels... Now, the dvb driver
 does work with my HD-2000, but I decided to go back to the v4l driver for
 now.

 Anyhow, since I like pain and suffering, I took the latest FC3 kernel as a
 base, added the latest 2.6.10 kraxel patch, some of my own patches and that
 1.6-based patch of yours found at the link above, mushed it all together,
 fixed a few rejects, and built a kernel rpm out of it all. The resulting
 kernel's bttv driver works beautifully with my HD-2000.

Cool.  I don't have an HD-2000 so I wasn't able to test that case.

Somewhat related, I guess, so I thought I'd add it on.  Having *just*
gotten my myth box running this weekend, I'm looking ahead to adding
hdtv capability.  Someone mentioned that the pchdtv also supports QAM
- so, does that mean that if i were to use it, I'd be able to tune my
digital cable without the set top box?

2005-03-14 Thread Jim Oltman
From what I understand ( i don't have an HDTV, so I might not be the
best to listen to!), you can use the firewire output from your set top
box to record the HD coming over cable (no need to worry about QAM)
and use your PCHDTV 3000 card for OTA HD.  Keep in mind that many set
top boxes have a firewire output but they all aren't enabled.  Search
the mailing list to see if you can figure out if it is enabled or not.

I believe so.

You want to end up using the one in /lib/modules/kernel/v4l2/, if I'm 
remembering correctly.

No problem, we've all been there. :-)
