[linux-dvb] problems with szap and win-tv-nova

[Hermann Gausterer <mrq1@gmx.net>]

hi

i have now an additional card in my system, a wintv nova (without CI/CA), in
addition to the 3*win-tv-s, the card is correctly recognized .. but works not 
as expected ...

Jul 29 12:52:49 xyz kernel: probe_tuner: try to attach to 
TT-Budget/WinTV-NOVA-CI PCI
Jul 29 12:52:49 xyz kernel: drivers/media/dvb/frontends/stv0299.c: setup for 
tuner SU1278 (TSA5059 synth) on TechnoTrend hardware
Jul 29 12:52:49 xyz kernel: DVB: registering frontend 3:0 
(STV0299/TSA5059/SL1935 based)...

cd linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0/util/szap/
# ./szap -a 3 -c "channels.conf-dvbs-astra" -r n24
reading channels from file 'channels.conf-dvbs-astra'
zapping to 34 'N24':
sat 0, frequency = 12480 MHz V, symbolrate 27500000, vpid = 0x07ff, apid = 
0x0800
using '/dev/dvb/adapter3/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter3/demux0'
status 1f | signal b680 | snr e7ae | ber 00000600 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK
status 1f | signal b7be | snr e826 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK

status 1f | signal b686 | snr e802 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK

and in another terminal:
# hexdump /dev/dvb/adapter3/dvr0

but there is no output, i get nothing out of this card :-(

in the readme is an example with czap, but i think this should work with
szap too???

ps: i think there is a small typo in the file
linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0/util/szap/README in line 24; 
i hope there should be /dev/dvb/adapter... insteed of /dev/dvr/.. or??!?!
