Hello, there is a standard connection type between vcrs and tvs through a scart-wire using two well defined pins: AV.Link, Easy Link, MegaLogic, SmartLink & Co (they all mean the same thing) With AV.Link e.g. you could use the OSD of your TV for programming your vcr (VDR :-) and many other things ... (Look at http://www.rfe-online.de/_archiv/01/05/print/p_0501.htm for some details, sorry this is a german page) I was wondering if anybody is trying to implement AV.Link for PC's (with Linux of course ;-), maybe by connecting a self constructed gadget to the serial or parallel port (like LIRC) and implementing that special protocoll. This would be an alternative to LIRC using all the features your TV (including remote control) provides. For a perfect Linux settop box this would be perfect ;-) Any opinions about that? regards Stefan -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

Although the list was updated today, there are two major drawbacks: - the channels.conf-output ist still out of date (vdr0.61, all the new fields are missing completely) - the PPV-Channels have no valid pid-information at all -> a waste of time www.lyngsat.com too is not up-to-date at all regarding the premiere-world-channels. I changed my channels.conf according to www.gieseler.de/tips_tricks/premiere_freq.htm, the normal channels are OK, but the Cinedoms are not correct/don't work, at least not all of them. I have problems with the following channels: :Cinedom DL Cinedom DL:11759:h:0:27500:255:256:0:2:189 :Cinedom 1 Cinedom 1A:11719:h:0:27500:1535:1536:0:2:176 Cinedom 1C:11719:h:0:27500:511:512:0:2:180 :Cinedom 2 Cinedom 2C:11719:h:0:27500:1279:1280:0:2:183 :Cinedom 3 Cinedom 3A:11719:h:0:27500:1023:1024:0:2:182 :Cinedom 4 Cinedom 4A:11719:h:0:27500:767:768:0:2:181 If anybody has working settings for those, I'd like to know... (And when the current high-priority-problems are solved, I think Klaus should have a look at the DTV-Sources and adopt the PW-Multifeed-Support-Stuff :-) BTW: you may have noticed that they started sending in 16:9 on the "Premiere 1"-channel. According to some boards, every broadcast that is sent in Pal+ on the analogue Premiere will be sent in anamorphic 16:9 on Premiere 1. Nice for recordings with VDR, but bad for watching with a dbox1 on a tv without 16:9-mode.

Although the list was updated today, there are two major drawbacks: - the channels.conf-output ist still out of date (vdr0.61, all the new fields are missing completely) - the PPV-Channels have no valid pid-information at all -> a waste of time www.lyngsat.com too is not up-to-date at all regarding the premiere-world-channels. I changed my channels.conf according to www.gieseler.de/tips_tricks/premiere_freq.htm, the normal channels are OK, but the Cinedoms are not correct/don't work, at least not all of them. I have problems with the following channels: :Cinedom DL Cinedom DL:11759:h:0:27500:255:256:0:2:189 :Cinedom 1 Cinedom 1A:11719:h:0:27500:1535:1536:0:2:176 Cinedom 1C:11719:h:0:27500:511:512:0:2:180 :Cinedom 2 Cinedom 2C:11719:h:0:27500:1279:1280:0:2:183 :Cinedom 3 Cinedom 3A:11719:h:0:27500:1023:1024:0:2:182 :Cinedom 4 Cinedom 4A:11719:h:0:27500:767:768:0:2:181 If anybody has working settings for those, I'd like to know...

According to some boards, every broadcast that is sent in Pal+ on the analogue Premiere will be sent in anamorphic 16:9 on Premiere 1.

I just looked at top while replaying without ac3 data and vdr takes about 10-20% load. But when I play a recording with ac3 data cdr goes up to 90-99% systemload ..

This sounds like there might be a problem with the audio DAC chip or the sound output of the AV7110 itself on your card. If this is independent of the driver version (but I never had this kind of problem with any of my driver versions) I would definitely try to get this card repaired or exchanged. > Is the card damaged or can the probem be anywhere else? > I bought it at http://www.pc-werksverkauf.de, can I bring the card to any > "Fujitsu-Siemens-Computers Autorized Service Partner" to repair it or do I > have to send it back to the factory sale shop? Sorry, I have no idea how they handle that. If you bought it by mail order you should be able to return it during the first few weeks (is it 4 weeks now?) in any case.

To get at least "pseudo-dolby" i mute the audio-channel where the dvb is connected and use it as input source. Then in principle a cat /dev/dsp does the trick with alsa, but you better find a way to set 44kHz and 16bit stereo then...think that is called the "AC97 PCM output path" or so. My experience is, that it sounds much better but you have to carefully adjust the front/rear balance for every movie. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

Yep, know that. I use the "latency" test-program out of the alsa-lib/test/ instead. Because you can adjust the minimal secure latency (by hacking the code) for your hardware.

In stracing VDR, cDisplayChannel::ProcessKey is getting called about 40 times/sec, causing a lot of system "time" calls, but that was about it.

Did you set any Teletext PIDs for those channels? Teletext insertion does not work with NTSC and will cause the flickering even if no teletext data is actually present.

In VDR speak, I was setting the "Channel->tpid" rather than the "Channel->pnr" for teletext in the channels.conf file. The "tpid" set to what the PNR should have been, caused the flickering. There was a case where I could no longer repeat the problem without rebooting first; i.e I couldn't get to flicker no matter what the tpid was set to (until I shut the machine off, and rebooted -- then, I could modify the tpid value and control the flickering).

Did you set any Teletext PIDs for those channels? Teletext insertion does not work with NTSC and will cause the flickering even if no teletext data is actually present. There was a bug in the driver last week which could cause teletext filters remain active when changing to a channel without teletext but I already checked in the fix last weekend.

No idea how much work is required for, but it should be possible to send the audio packets even for non-ac3 channels to (e.g. mpg123) instead of sending them to the card, possibly the sync will be gone then too. > i did and it worked but the syncronisation was gone(mouthmovements and > sound didn´t go together. Yep, know that. I use the "latency" test-program out of the alsa-lib/test/ instead. Because you can adjust the minimal secure latency (by hacking the code) for your hardware. I set the value to 4096, which still gives occasional sound drop outs... that is related to the linux-low-latency-patch discussion, although i would like to have KURT in the main-stream kernel instead ;-) You can find 'my' code under http://www.s.netic.de/gfiala/rec2ac97.c it compiles with gcc -o rec2ac97 rec2ac97.c -lasound To start/stop i use the following little script behind a KDE-Button: /usr/local/bin/rec2ac97.sh: #!/bin/bash if !( ps ux| grep "rec2ac97$" ) ; then rec2ac97& else killall rec2ac97& fi -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

Of course, without OSD. Have you tried DEBUG_OSD so that the OSD will appear on the controlling terminal instead of the TV screen? If that works and the "real" OSD doesn't, then OSD memory has been reduced once again. But if I remember correctly, Klaus has already integrated a function that will shrink the OSD until it fits into memory automatically. So, if it's a memory problem, it should be "self-healing" ;-) We should probably just wait until Klaus is back from vacation ...

This is an X application designed to be used on your desktop PC and uses the wxWindows multi-platform GUI library (see www.wxwindows.org). The UI part currently works on both Linux (using the GTK version of wxWindows) and Win32. The DVB tuning part obviously only works under Linux - but could be adapted for Windows by someone else if they wished. My plans are to make it a full client-server system with clients available for any system that wxwindows support (i.e. Linux/GTK, Win32, MacOS). I will probably be adapting VDR to act as the server, or may start from scratch. At the moment, it runs on the same machine as the DVB card. It will also have optional software mpeg audio decoding via mpg123 (to support the budget cards) and direct recording of the mpeg audio streams. I intend to make the program buffer the last (e.g.) 60 seconds of audio which is then added to any live recording you start. - so when a song on the radio starts that you like, you can press a button, and that will go back in time and add the stored buffer to the recording. Anyway, if anyone is interested in either using or developing this program, please let me know privately, and if there's any demand, I'll package up what I have so far and release it. The UI is mostly complete, and channel storing and replay via the DVB-S card's audio-out works. There is no recording yet - apart from with my external "pesdump" utility available at http://www.linuxstb.org/pesdump/ Please note that you will have to install the wxWindows package first.

The dish is set up somethat weird here, signal strenght is rather low. Interesting fact was that analogue TV worked even with 1.5db signal strength (with good picture quality), but digital TV needed approx. 6.5db signal strength to show properly. Some db more would not hurt I think, but I cannot squeeze more than 7db out of this setup (55cm dish pointing partly to the roof ;-). If signal strength is not enough, "cat /dev/video > bla" will produce zero byte files only (I do not use the FBAS output of the DVB card).

I contacted Wiljo Heinen (the author of PVAStrumento) a while ago and we worked out a contract so that I would port PVAStrumento to Linux. PVAStrumento would still be close-sourced but a working version is better than nothing at all. I started working on the port two weeks ago but I have halted this effort for the time being. PVAStrumento is being developed using Microsoft Visual C++. Wiljo never thought about porting it to another operating system (no offense meant, Wiljo ;-) The code has grown over the time and is barely documented. Making the code compile on a Standard-C++ compiler would require a complete re-write of large parts of PVAStrumento. Wiljo doesn't have time to do that right now and I don't know enough about MPEG to do the job. But I will try to learn more about MPEG and DVB program streams within the next couple of weeks and I hope I will be able to come up with something usable then! Now, please don't beg Wiljo about getting a copy of his code, too. Many of you certainly know more about porting MSVC code to other operating systems than I do but I don't think it's worth the effort. A clean new program that does PVAStrumento's job in a portable fashion should be the way to go. Any help on getting this job done is welcome ;-) Regards, hh -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

Fortunately the Boot Block BIOS was still working and I was able to boot a MS-DOS floppy disk to reflash the main BIOS. I noticed that with a room temp of around 30C or above the card wouldn't work or work for too long (except for playback which continued to work fine). The virtical towercase design of my case didn't help matters as it only caused heat to be trapped under the DVB card, anyway since I installed a PCI exhaust fan next to the DVB card, it has been working flawlessly.

Hi, this may be slightly off topic, but as XFS has been discussed here several times and a few questions were left open, I think I should contribute my experience. I had both reliability (data loss after power failure, kernel panic during a 2-week vacation) and performance (slows down a lot when the disk gets full) problems with Reiserfs, so I decided to install Kernel 2.4.6 and XFS. Here is what I did: * Distribution: SuSE 7.2 with hand-configured kernel. * Downloaded kernel 2.4.6 from kernel.org. * Downloaded linux-2.4.6-xfs-07052001.patch.bz2 from ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/patches * Downloaded xfsprogs-1.2.0.src.tar.gz from ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/Release-1.0/cmd_tars * Unpacked kernel 2.4.6 into /usr/src/linux-2.4.6 * Applied linux-2.4.6-xfs-07052001.patch. * copied .config over from my old kernel directory, ran make oldconfig and answered all questions with * Ran make xconfig and enabled xfs. * Changed the link /usr/src/linux, so it now points to the new directory /usr/src/linux-2.4.6. I do not know if that is recommended, but so far it did not hurt. * Compiled, installed and booted the new 2.4.6-xfs kernel. * Compiled and installed xfsprogs-1.2.0. * Ran mkfs.xfs /dev/hdg1 * Mounted /dev/hdg1 * Copied 66GB of vdr movies to the mounted disk. % df -hT /video Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hdg1 xfs 93G 66G 28G 70% /video * Ran configure, make clean and make install in my lirc directory. * Ran make clean and make insmod in the DVB/driver directory. * Started vdr. All of these steps worked without any problems, except for the fact that "make bzlilo" intalled System.map and vmlinuz on "/" instead of "/boot". I moved them to /boot manually. Does anyone know what I did wrong? Is this a "feature" of 2.4.6? Here are some additional links: * Main download site: ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download * Main web site: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs * FAQ: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/faq.html * Mailing list: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/mail.html I have been working with XFS under IRIX for about 7 years now and there has never been so much as a glitch with it. For the less adventuresome user: I heard that XFS 1.0.1 will be out within a week or so. It should provide a complete Linux 2.4.5 source tree with the patch already applied. For the more adventuresome user: they also provide a CVS tree that keeps up with the latest kernel. Hope that helps, Carsten. P.S.: I am using vdr 0.8.3 with a CVS snapshot of the DVB drivers taken on June 19th. After reading here that newer CVS versions of the DVB drivers do not work with vdr, I did not dare to install a later driver version. Does anyone know what the latest version is that does work with vdr 0.8.3? I guess I will also post that question separately. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

VDR now opens the pipe to ac3dec everytime a recording is replayed, even if it does not contain ac3 data but the dvb-s is muted for me :-( Thanks in advance Stefan -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

This sounds like there might be a problem with the audio DAC chip or the sound output of the AV7110 itself on your card. If this is independent of the driver version (but I never had this kind of problem with any of my driver versions) I would definitely try to get this card repaired or exchanged. > Is the card damaged or can the probem be anywhere else? > I bought it at http://www.pc-werksverkauf.de, can I bring the card to any > "Fujitsu-Siemens-Computers Autorized Service Partner" to repair it or do I > have to send it back to the factory sale shop? Sorry, I have no idea how they handle that. If you bought it by mail order you should be able to return it during the first few weeks (is it 4 weeks now?) in any case.

To get at least "pseudo-dolby" i mute the audio-channel where the dvb is connected and use it as input source. Then in principle a cat /dev/dsp does the trick with alsa, but you better find a way to set 44kHz and 16bit stereo then...think that is called the "AC97 PCM output path" or so.

No idea how much work is required for, but it should be possible to send the audio packets even for non-ac3 channels to (e.g. mpg123) instead of sending them to the card, possibly the sync will be gone then too. > i did and it worked but the syncronisation was gone(mouthmovements and > sound didn´t go together. Yep, know that. I use the "latency" test-program out of the alsa-lib/test/ instead. Because you can adjust the minimal secure latency (by hacking the code) for your hardware. I set the value to 4096, which still gives occasional sound drop outs... that is related to the linux-low-latency-patch discussion, although i would like to have KURT in the main-stream kernel instead ;-) You can find 'my' code under http://www.s.netic.de/gfiala/rec2ac97.c it compiles with gcc -o rec2ac97 rec2ac97.c -lasound To start/stop i use the following little script behind a KDE-Button: /usr/local/bin/rec2ac97.sh: #!/bin/bash if !( ps ux| grep "rec2ac97$" ) ; then rec2ac97& else killall rec2ac97& fi -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

It seems that the "8-bit-boundry" hack (needed by OSD bitmap calls, documented in the "flush" routine of VDR's dvbosd.c) doesn't work for NTSC. I've replaced flush's "cmd" call with a printf, they all look the same: width 480, dirtyX1 0, dirtyY1 0, dirtyX2 479, dirtyY2 2 The arguments look good for NTSC, so, I'm guessing the the OSD bitmap algorithm needs to change for NTSC. > > If I kill vtr, then the flicker goes away. > I figured the flicker must be caused by some ioctl that VDR's constantly hitting: it's not. In stracing VDR, cDisplayChannel::ProcessKey is getting called about 40 times/sec, causing a lot of system "time" calls, but that was about it. No ioctls to the DVB driver while the video is flickering. Also, the flickering isn't consistent.

Did you set any Teletext PIDs for those channels? Teletext insertion does not work with NTSC and will cause the flickering even if no teletext data is actually present.

In VDR speak, I was setting the "Channel->tpid" rather than the "Channel->pnr" for teletext in the channels.conf file. The "tpid" set to what the PNR should have been, caused the flickering. There was a case where I could no longer repeat the problem without rebooting first; i.e I couldn't get to flicker no matter what the tpid was set to (until I shut the machine off, and rebooted -- then, I could modify the tpid value and control the flickering).

It seems that the "8-bit-boundry" hack (needed by OSD bitmap calls, documented in the "flush" routine of VDR's dvbosd.c) doesn't work for NTSC. I've replaced flush's "cmd" call with a printf, they all look the same: width 480, dirtyX1 0, dirtyY1 0, dirtyX2 479, dirtyY2 2 The arguments look good for NTSC, so, I'm guessing the the OSD bitmap algorithm needs to change for NTSC. > > If I kill vtr, then the flicker goes away. > I figured the flicker must be caused by some ioctl that VDR's constantly hitting: it's not. In stracing VDR, cDisplayChannel::ProcessKey is getting called about 40 times/sec, causing a lot of system "time" calls, but that was about it. No ioctls to the DVB driver while the video is flickering. Also, the flickering isn't consistent.

In VDR speak, I was setting the "Channel->tpid" rather than the "Channel->pnr" for teletext in the channels.conf file. The "tpid" set to what the PNR should have been, caused the flickering.

Of course, without OSD. Have you tried DEBUG_OSD so that the OSD will appear on the controlling terminal instead of the TV screen? If that works and the "real" OSD doesn't, then OSD memory has been reduced once again. But if I remember correctly, Klaus has already integrated a function that will shrink the OSD until it fits into memory automatically. So, if it's a memory problem, it should be "self-healing" ;-) We should probably just wait until Klaus is back from vacation ...

Of course, without OSD. Have you tried DEBUG_OSD so that the OSD will appear on the controlling terminal instead of the TV screen? If that works and the "real" OSD doesn't, then OSD memory has been reduced once again. But if I remember correctly, Klaus has already integrated a function that will shrink the OSD until it fits into memory automatically. So, if it's a memory problem, it should be "self-healing" ;-) We should probably just wait until Klaus is back from vacation ...

This is an X application designed to be used on your desktop PC and uses the wxWindows multi-platform GUI library (see www.wxwindows.org). The UI part currently works on both Linux (using the GTK version of wxWindows) and Win32. The DVB tuning part obviously only works under Linux - but could be adapted for Windows by someone else if they wished. My plans are to make it a full client-server system with clients available for any system that wxwindows support (i.e. Linux/GTK, Win32, MacOS). I will probably be adapting VDR to act as the server, or may start from scratch. At the moment, it runs on the same machine as the DVB card. It will also have optional software mpeg audio decoding via mpg123 (to support the budget cards) and direct recording of the mpeg audio streams. I intend to make the program buffer the last (e.g.) 60 seconds of audio which is then added to any live recording you start. - so when a song on the radio starts that you like, you can press a button, and that will go back in time and add the stored buffer to the recording. Anyway, if anyone is interested in either using or developing this program, please let me know privately, and if there's any demand, I'll package up what I have so far and release it. The UI is mostly complete, and channel storing and replay via the DVB-S card's audio-out works. There is no recording yet - apart from with my external "pesdump" utility available at http://www.linuxstb.org/pesdump/ Please note that you will have to install the wxWindows package first.

The dish is set up somethat weird here, signal strenght is rather low. Interesting fact was that analogue TV worked even with 1.5db signal strength (with good picture quality), but digital TV needed approx. 6.5db signal strength to show properly. Some db more would not hurt I think, but I cannot squeeze more than 7db out of this setup (55cm dish pointing partly to the roof ;-). If signal strength is not enough, "cat /dev/video > bla" will produce zero byte files only (I do not use the FBAS output of the DVB card).

I contacted Wiljo Heinen (the author of PVAStrumento) a while ago and we worked out a contract so that I would port PVAStrumento to Linux. PVAStrumento would still be close-sourced but a working version is better than nothing at all. I started working on the port two weeks ago but I have halted this effort for the time being. PVAStrumento is being developed using Microsoft Visual C++. Wiljo never thought about porting it to another operating system (no offense meant, Wiljo ;-) The code has grown over the time and is barely documented. Making the code compile on a Standard-C++ compiler would require a complete re-write of large parts of PVAStrumento. Wiljo doesn't have time to do that right now and I don't know enough about MPEG to do the job. But I will try to learn more about MPEG and DVB program streams within the next couple of weeks and I hope I will be able to come up with something usable then! Now, please don't beg Wiljo about getting a copy of his code, too. Many of you certainly know more about porting MSVC code to other operating systems than I do but I don't think it's worth the effort. A clean new program that does PVAStrumento's job in a portable fashion should be the way to go. Any help on getting this job done is welcome ;-) Regards, hh -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

Fortunately the Boot Block BIOS was still working and I was able to boot a MS-DOS floppy disk to reflash the main BIOS. I noticed that with a room temp of around 30C or above the card wouldn't work or work for too long (except for playback which continued to work fine). The virtical towercase design of my case didn't help matters as it only caused heat to be trapped under the DVB card, anyway since I installed a PCI exhaust fan next to the DVB card, it has been working flawlessly.

Hi, this may be slightly off topic, but as XFS has been discussed here several times and a few questions were left open, I think I should contribute my experience. I had both reliability (data loss after power failure, kernel panic during a 2-week vacation) and performance (slows down a lot when the disk gets full) problems with Reiserfs, so I decided to install Kernel 2.4.6 and XFS. Here is what I did: * Distribution: SuSE 7.2 with hand-configured kernel. * Downloaded kernel 2.4.6 from kernel.org. * Downloaded linux-2.4.6-xfs-07052001.patch.bz2 from ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/patches * Downloaded xfsprogs-1.2.0.src.tar.gz from ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download/Release-1.0/cmd_tars * Unpacked kernel 2.4.6 into /usr/src/linux-2.4.6 * Applied linux-2.4.6-xfs-07052001.patch. * copied .config over from my old kernel directory, ran make oldconfig and answered all questions with * Ran make xconfig and enabled xfs. * Changed the link /usr/src/linux, so it now points to the new directory /usr/src/linux-2.4.6. I do not know if that is recommended, but so far it did not hurt. * Compiled, installed and booted the new 2.4.6-xfs kernel. * Compiled and installed xfsprogs-1.2.0. * Ran mkfs.xfs /dev/hdg1 * Mounted /dev/hdg1 * Copied 66GB of vdr movies to the mounted disk. % df -hT /video Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hdg1 xfs 93G 66G 28G 70% /video * Ran configure, make clean and make install in my lirc directory. * Ran make clean and make insmod in the DVB/driver directory. * Started vdr. All of these steps worked without any problems, except for the fact that "make bzlilo" intalled System.map and vmlinuz on "/" instead of "/boot". I moved them to /boot manually. Does anyone know what I did wrong? Is this a "feature" of 2.4.6? Here are some additional links: * Main download site: ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/download * Main web site: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs * FAQ: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/faq.html * Mailing list: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/mail.html I have been working with XFS under IRIX for about 7 years now and there has never been so much as a glitch with it. For the less adventuresome user: I heard that XFS 1.0.1 will be out within a week or so. It should provide a complete Linux 2.4.5 source tree with the patch already applied. For the more adventuresome user: they also provide a CVS tree that keeps up with the latest kernel. Hope that helps, Carsten. P.S.: I am using vdr 0.8.3 with a CVS snapshot of the DVB drivers taken on June 19th. After reading here that newer CVS versions of the DVB drivers do not work with vdr, I did not dare to install a later driver version. Does anyone know what the latest version is that does work with vdr 0.8.3? I guess I will also post that question separately. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

After that everything is stuck - just as you told... Using the drivers from 18.6.01 works but channel switching ends up in arm reset sooner or later ! Taking some sources (in the description containing the switching problem - from 21.06.01) from actual cvs gives a working system - but still can be killed by heavy channel switching (try pressing down the channel-up button to walk through 20 channels or so and have a look at /var/log/messages meanwhile ...). Can one of the driver developers comment on this ? It seems with the old 0.8.2 version of the drives i never had any crashes while switching... I hope we can find the cause for this soon...

Hi, I've tested DTV 1.1.2 the last night and found a few bugs along the way. My system: DVB card : Haupauge DVB-s ver. 1.3 DVB drivers: released from 18/6 or CVS snapshot from 26/6 Remote control: lircd via Irman 1. Starting dtv --------------- After starting dtv "dtv -d" the very first event is ignored. After that no problems. This is a very minor thing. 2. States --------- Rolf Hakenes talks abaout 6 states : Normal, Current EPG, Language Menu, NVOD menu, VTX. Normal ------ Giving the event "o" gives you a channel list. It is possible to scroll the channels but it's not possible to choose one with another "o" command, it just quits the menu without selecting the channel. Current EPG ----------- Giving the event "a" should switch you into Current EPG state but only triggers the OSD and shows Current EPG information for the defined time (4 s. default). Trying to use "+" or "-" to navigate just switched channels. Giving another "a" which should leave the state retriggers the OSD. Language -------- Giving the event "y" takes you to the Language Menu state if multiple audio PID's are available. It shows you a menu of available languages preceeded by a number which is the channel number for all languages, like this : 1 swe 1 dan 1 nor Navigation using "+" and "-" works but it not possible to choose a language with the "o" event, nothing happens if you try. Only option is to leave the menu without doing anything. VTX --- Giving the event "b" should switch you to the VTX state showing a Teletext window. When it works this is a really nice feature! For some channels the "b" just triggers an OSD saying "VTX receiption startet" and then noting more. Trying again gives the same result. Apart from this a very promissing program. Another wanted feature would be selection of a single audio channel (left or right) if it is possible.

(revised) Hi, I posted a minireview of DTV 1.1.2 earlier but have to revise it because I made a major bummer in my lircd.conf. I had by mistake swapped the keys for the "a" and "o" event :( For DTV this means that practically all of the "bugs" mentioned in the earlier post aren't there. What is left is the following : 1. Starting dtv --------------- After starting dtv "dtv -d" the very first event is ignored. After that no problems. This is a very minor thing. 2. VTX ------ Giving the event "b" should switch you to the VTX state showing a Teletext window. When it works this is a really nice feature! For some channels the "b" just triggers an OSD saying "VTX receiption started" and then noting more. Trying again gives the same result. Future wishes ------------- selection of a single audio channel (left or right) if it is possible. Some channels, especially EuroSport are sending different language commentaries in the left and right audio channel. Sorry about the misleading post earlier and I must say that DTV looks very nice.

You should be able to also re-map 'up' from the broadcast/cable range 5-950Mhz and place it at the 950-2150Mhz range of the input tuner of a DVB-S card.

Anybody know of such a device? (g) If you only look at the frequency, it would be possible. But DVB-S and DVB-C use different modulation techniques. DVB-C uses QAM-64, whereas DVB-S uses QPSK.

This is a known bug without a solution at this time (IMO it is related to linux problems), but it exists a workaround to get the keyboard control working: Disable all VTX processors !!! That's all...don't ask why, I swear the VTX has nothing to do with the keyboard processing...but after that it works again (at least for me). If someone is interested in more details, or maybe has a solution for the problem...The symptom is, that the keyboard input device (forced to become raw at the beginning of the program), gets valid keyboard events, if the VTX demux device was opened. As these events are a lot, the keyboard has no chance to break this data stream anymore...

At the moment the left and right audio channel are connected flawlessly with the output jack at the DVB-card. Therefore you should always have the possibility to select left or right audio at your whatever kind of Television/Monitor displaying that data (if it is stereo).

Unfortunatly I have a quite old mobo, so it has no temp sensor :-( But the DVB card gets quite warm - although i have normal coolers running (no special ones being silent or something) But if its the temp which causes the problem, why is it suddenly gone without cooling down the card ? Question: Is the whole card reset wheen shuttingdown linux and rebooting the machine - i mean without powerdown ? Or would a crashed firmware still be crashed ? May this be the cause ? Strangely it appeared to be more often since i switched to the 2.4.4 kernel and the new api Martin. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to listar@linuxtv.org with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.

My setup might be a little different from others since I don't have a TV. I use xawtv for video to either a TFT monitor or a CRT projector. The audio goes directly to a Denon AVR-3300 Surround Receiver which doesn't offer you the possiblity to choose to listen to only 1 channel audio (left or right). I know it sounds crazy to send out different languages in each channel since multiple audio PID's are available but this way they get all 4 nordic languages covered with 2 audio PID's. Again, I receive Eurosport from 1 degree west. So what I mean by selection is a possiblity to choose to send either the left or right audio channel to both channels on the output jack and thereby get a mono signal. Since I now have used DTV some more I have another few future wishes :) - vdr type recording. I saw in the README that this was on the todo and I'm really looking forward to this one since this would allow me use only 1 app. - Possibility to view full EPG of the next program playing, like it is done in the Current EPG state. There could be a button to press to get the EPG for the next program, and maybe a scroll function if the whole text can't be displayed in 1 OSD window. - I'm also looking forward to get a full description of the user menu system since this should allow me to build a frontend for a mp3 player, which I currently use as a music jukebox, and show info and menus via the OSD.

There can be two reasons : > >1.) Have you checked your dish ?? >2.) whats about temperature in your vdr-box?? I've had the same problem several times here, it occurs about once a week. Here it seems as if only channels on vertical polarisation are affected by that problem (Sat1, Pro7, etc), as I have never had this effect on horizontal polarisation yet. Moreover, I think the problem is not the vdr-box, as my standalone-receiver ("Volksbox") shows exactly the same behaviour at the same time: No picture/sound on some vertical channels for a short period of time (about 5 minutes). The only thing I can do is wait until the picture comes back on its own. One more strange thing I noticed is that the drop-outs seem to begin exactly at full minutes (the time delivered by the transponder) and also ends at full minutes. At least I noticed that yesterday evening on Pro7 during a recording around 22:00 as the drop-out has been logged in /var/log/messages. But that might just have been a coincidence, as this was the only time problem has been logged. So might this be a problem with the data delivered by ASTRA? (Though I can hardly imagine this...)

If you only have one LNB, you can use the global options dvbDefaultDiseqcNr : default is 0 dvbDefaultLnbLsof : default is 11700 dvbDefaultLnbFreqLow : default is 9750 dvbDefaultLnbFreqHigh : default is 10600 to change the LNB settings. For Diseqc setup please read the transponders.dcl.diseqc file for the Diseqc satellite definition, which includes LNB settings for each satellite. To reference a channel of a certain satellite the satellite identifier has to be added for each entry of the 'define_available_channels' list, but this is done automatically by dtv_scan if you have defined a Diseqc setup.

So pressing 2, to start the cutting process takes longer than it should be, unless you leave the "playback" process... Second i wanted to ask if it would be possible to implement some kind of signal (audio or osd), that tells the user, if a command via remote control was understood ! So the problem is the following : When cutting it sometimes happenes that the "0" for the cutting mark just isn't recognized , although i have pressed the button and it's annoying to find out at the end of the cutting process that one mark is missing :-( So a small audio "beep" or a OSD "MARK" or something would be nice! So don't get me wrong, this isn't important, just an idea, that i'd like to share with you...

The old board has got an adapter, but it is not for pci. [...] You need a so-called "Riser-Card". If you live in Germany you can take a look into the "c't Magazin fuer Computertechnik". There are often adverts for such cards. You can also search for "riser-card pci" to get some webpages with information. It should not be to difficult to get such a card because many mainboard manufacturers produce boards for "small PC's" (IMHO it's called NTX or NLX, smaller boards than ATX).

This depends on the software you are using. VDR and DTV can use the on-screen display functions of the DVB card. I don't know if the current DVD player has an OSD, too (I have no DVD drive in my VDR box). A more flexible way would be to use a VGA card that is supported by Linux' frame-buffer driver. This will give you high-speed direct access to the video memory. The OSD functions of the DVB card are limited and there is only very little memory available. On the other hand, the DVB card's system is optimized for output on a 352x288 TV screen. VGA runs at a minimum of 640x480 pixels so you image will always be a little blurry. I recently tried to get an ATI Rage 3D VGA card to work on my TV set, but unfortunately it ran at 60 Hz refresh rate (NTSC) instead of 50 Hz so I didn't get a picture. I wonder what kind of VGA chip Convergence is using in their framebuffer-based system because it seems as if no-one is really working on/using the Linux framebuffer drivers so its functionality and reliabilty is limited?

Hi ! Sorry to be ignorant, but this mailing list seems to be the only place where you can get up to date with the current state that VDR & dvb for linux is in ( no "history" files on the appropriate websites that descibes the actual state in the cvs ). So i frankly ask, because i was away 3 weeks ... Is recording of a video + ac3 stream already working ??? ( and maybe playback as well, although its not THAT important ) And IF it is working, is there already a solution/script/way to produce a valid .mpg file from it with video and ac3 audio track, ready for playback by windoze soft such as powerdvd ??? And what kernel version/distribution would i need for it, i want to rebuild my linux partition anyways ... I hope you're not annoyed, but if you know a better way of getting the current state, please tell me so ( in 3 weeks there must have been 1000+ messages, impossible to reread them if you got a job & girl ).

Unfortunately, the Xvideo extension is currently not supported with TVout enabled, so you need a really fast PC to watch MPEG2.

Additionally you stress your PCI bus with a lot of data flowing from one board to the other.

I have, and their bedtime starts often to the best tv time. So, i guess it would be better to spent the time to bring them into the bed (without watching steadily to the clock ) and start the tv evening just later. And the cost reduction is about 300,-DM !(400,-DM fully DVBs card + 200,-DM low budget card - both second hand against 200,-DM low buget + 100,-DM MPEG2 card). The PCI bus will be stressed for both solutions. But if me dream never comes true, i can switch to the highend solution by just buying the DVBs card, that's the reason why i bought the Nova first. My real question was about getting only the Nova running (recording only, because of missing MPEG2 decoder hardware). Do you have any hints about that.

I thought about just looking TV on ONE DVB-S card, that doesn't stress the PCI bus, what is VERY positive in my opinion (because PC hardware is not very reliable when stressed over time).

You could run into problems, as I don't know whether VDR or even 'tuxzap' are able to run without ANY DVB-s MPEG-decoders ??? Additionally I have no idea of DXR3 being supported for linux. If it is, you should be able to just cat the MPEG2 PES datastream from /dev/ost/dvr to whatever device DXR3 uses. If neither VDR nor tuxzap works, the next version of DTV should solve your problem, as it will be able to feed the 'dvr' device (i.e. switching to a channel with providing the stream at /dev/ost/dvr') while disabling the OSD. Additionally the user setup possibilities will be enlarged, therefore you will be able to trigger user defined events when switching channels (could be used to (re)start a 'viewer' application for DXR3, or providing that kind of application with channel informations). But in my opinion it would be even better to use a MPEG-accelerated graphics card with TV-out (most of them have this acceleration today), as the main functionality missing with DXR3 is OSD, which was/is the main reason for me to use digital TV.

(And i hope we do not fight against each other when bidding for a card ;-) I bought the Nova 2 Weeks ago for 200,- DM (it is nearly new - 2 Months old). Unfortunately the DVBs cards are dealt very high (aprox. 400,-DM). The DXR3 (and Holywood+) cards can be found for aprox. 90,-DM. The DXR3 cards are supported by Linux (http://dxr3.sourceforge.net/). I have borrowed a Hollywood+ and it works fine with the xine DVD player. So, i think it should work (just only some piping from video to the dxr3 card :-)).

I tracked this down to the BlitBitmap() call in DVB/driver/dvb.c's OSDSetBlock(). Apparently the dvb->bmp_state never changes to anything !=BMP_LOADING, so it hangs in the 'while (1)' loop inside BlitBitmap(). When I use the files Dpram and Root from the CVS driver 2001-06-22, the OSD works with the latest driver source (but when replaying the picture jerks quite a bit, maybe the latest driver and this older firmware don't really fit together). The bottom line is: something must be wrong with the OSD code in the latest firmware. Since I don't have access to that source code I would appreciate if the driver developers could take a look at this and fix it.

(my impression, never had the time to test). the dxr3 needs the a/v-streams demuxed into 2 devices. BUT, it has (at least no supported) osd capabilities. it would also feature a usable spdif-out for ac3. if we could get all of the tools around the dvb-cards more generic (dtv, vdr, dvdplayer), we could integrate hardware like the dxr3 easily. see my earlier comment on a general architecture for all these tv-centered applications. in short: write a scriptable,configurable frontend (for osd) that runs small backend tools for the various tasks (like record, playback, epg-scan, program searching, dvd-playing ...). as always, i don't find the time to do any programming in this direction.

I doubt that this would have to be changed for NTSC. I traced this problem today with the latest CVS driver version and it looks like there's a problem in the latest firmware (Dpram+Root). The OSD that is displayed when switching channels is not very big, so I would assume that it can't be the usual memory problem (besides, if there was too little memory for the OSD in the past, the OSD simply wasn't displayed, but did not cause the whole thing to hang).

If you enable the progress display (by pressing 'Ok' during replay) you'll get all editing marks displayed and can immediately check whether your new mark has been accepted.

This is because the REAL problem is the resolution of the OSD, which is restricted to 440x376 (that means a character has 11x15 pixels, which is not much on TV screens) with the current OSD memory limit of the driver. There was a discussion to enlarge this memory a few weeks before, but as OSD is not used at convergence at all, it seems to be no interest in supporting this for the DVB driver. The only thing I can do (as long as you won't find a better VTX font) is to implement some anti-aliasing on the Teletext pages (or generate MPEG pages for VTX, which is on my wishlist right now, but I didn't find a suitable solution to implement that yet). > channel preview (menu): > could you reverse the channels list ? > most remotes got "+" above "-" and its hard to get used to pressing > the "upper" button to get "down", especially when switching between > vdr and dtv... > No problem at all, I will put an option to switch channel order on my TODO list for the next version.

You didn't mention which CI module you are using. If you don't have an Irdeto Allcam, then the problem is most likely that the current DVB driver doesn't work with many CI modules. The driver developers know about that but they told me that there are currently more important things to be fixed, so we will just have to wait a while ...

I sometimes have the same problem and I *do* have DMA enabled. At least in my case, this is because my remote control isn't always pointed to the IR receiver correctly ;-) It would be nice if messages like "cutting mark set" and "cutting mark removed" would be displayed like VDR already does for "cutting started".

Have you tried activating the progress display while replaying/editing? Press "Ok" while replaying and you will see all the editing marks plus an indicator that shows what will actually be in the edited version.

I don't think so, DMA is enabled, and the problem persists only since i switched from vdr0.71 to the actual version (including the driver change) However while displaying this still picture, where a cut mark has been set, and NOT yet pressing "2" makes vdr take that much cpu time - you see - vdr and even the driver should have nothing to do at that moment...

Yes, i know, but since the drivers (or whatever) still have video (and sometimes audio) problems while playback, when the OSD (especially the ones with the cut marks) is permanently ON, i don't really like this method, and thought a short audio or visual (osd) notice, that the remote control command has been understood would make sense...

The combination "driver 0.8.2" and "VDR 0.72" should work together just fine. Are you _absolutely_, _positively_ sure you are using _that_ combination?
