[linux-dvb] AVerMedia 771 problems

[Dirk Meyer <dmeyer@informatik.uni-bremen.de>]

Hi,

after hours of trying, I gave up. I have an AVerMedia 771 DVB-T card
and installed everything needed (I guess).

I'm using 2.6.5 with the latest dvb-driver cvs using the symlink
script. Here the dmesg output:

bttv: driver version 0.9.12 loaded
bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) each for capture
bttv: Bt8xx card found (0).

DVB: registering new adapter (Ave).
i2c_adapter i2c-12: sendbytes: error - bailout.
mt352_read_register: readreg error (ret == -14)

After adding some debug, I saw the error is the first call of
mt352_read_register. Maybe I have some card problems, maybe i2c
problems. What do I need except the follwing kernel modules: dvb-core,
bttv, bt878, dvb-bt8xx and mt352. I also copied the firmware, but I
don't see were it is used.
