[linux-dvb] Re: new Nova-S docs (Re: DVB-T, no data fron cardon cold boot)
The problem with your diff-out is that I cannot see *what* function you
commented out...
And I do not think that it is satisfying to have to load and unload this
d*** driver all the time....
there should be a better solution (after all we are talking about linux,
not windows, aren't we?)

In most cases, this won't be a solution. If you take budget instead
of budget-ci, the card does not work at all. The problem is, that
those Nova-cards seem to tune correctly, but do not deliver any data.
My Nova-S for instance only works correctly after a warm boot from
Windows.
I have an old model Nova-T that shows similar symptoms. I find that it
will never work after a cold boot unless I do the following:
First, using dvb-kernel I have to un-comment a function...
tv dvb-kernel # cvs diff ./linux/drivers/media/common/saa7146_core.c
Index: ./linux/drivers/media/common/saa7146_core.c
===================================================================
RCS file:
/cvs/linuxtv/dvb-kernel/linux/drivers/media/common/saa7146_core.c,v
retrieving revision 1.51
diff -r1.51 saa7146_core.c
374c374

Then, in my script that starts vdr I do this:
modprobe grundig_29504-401
modprobe saa7146
modprobe budget_core
modprobe budget
sleep 1
rmmod budget
rmmod grundig_29504-401
rmmod budget_core
rmmod saa7146
rmmod ttpci_eeprom
sleep 1
modprobe grundig_29504-401
modprobe saa7146
modprobe budget_core
modprobe budget
Then, when vdr loads it gets no data so I have a remote key to kill
it. If it's going to record something then it will do an emergency
exit and achieve the same thing
Honestly, anything less does not work!!

The sad thing is, that even in this developer list no one could give
at least some advise on how to investigate on the reason for this
behaviour. In fact, most of the mails regarding this problem are
simply ignored.
Maybe, someone should try and port vdr to Windows, as the budget(-ci)
driver under Linux is still broken
Best Regards anyway,
Mark
