Driver

  • cx88

Status

2006-12-26:

added support for FM radio, you can test it using gerd knorr's "radio" and the usbaudio_setup.sh script, to "fix" the crackling audio problem use -b instead of the -w sox option.

2006-12-25:

PAL-BG/PAL-DK analogue TV is now supported including audio, though I experienced some crackly audio here sometimes. For setting up audio I used usbaudio_setup.sh

crackling audio is solved if you use 8 bit audio only

this requires firmware_pinnacle.tgz from http://mcentral.de/firmware/

the dvb-t demodulator is able to detect channels, the data transfer itself doesn't work yet.

2006-12-19:

got one step further with it, there's a problem with the PCI subsystem and resource allocation, it's documented in the discussion tab how to solve it.. this brings development one step further to get DVB-T work soon

2006-12-09:

there's some experimental code in

http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/v4l-dvb-experimental

analogue TV seems to work, without audio at the moment.
