HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

[jonathanjstevens]

Description of problem:
Support for Hauupauge HVR-4000 appears to be broken (again) in kernel mods.
This is a bit of a tale of woe, but this hardware is supposed to have been
sorted in stock kernel roundabout 3.0.
Stock F16 kernel cannot scan or tune in mythtv, kaffeine, w_scan, or dvbscan.
Compiled/Installed latest video-media build still no joy.
I used another USB DVB (nova-t) to scan, and using the results obtained from
w_scan on this managed to get tzap to FE LOCK. However this only worked with
tzap - no other app can get a lock.
Have tested with i2c reset patch enabled and not, and also with strobing patch
enabled and not (cs88-dvb.c). Also with mythtv kludge (delaying on FE close in
dvbutils.cpp). All make no difference.
So sad :(

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Linux mythtvtuner.home 3.1.0-7.fc16.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 1 21:10:48 UTC 2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How reproducible:
Install F16 and try to make use of HVR-4000.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install F16 on a machine with HVR-4000
2. Try to use it
3. Cry
Actual results:
Can't scan or tune.
Expected results:
Can scan and tune and be happy.
Additional info:
Should mention this machine is also running Xen.
If necessary I have a spare machine I can put a HVR-4000 into and can compile
whatever you want to try to fix this. Pretty sure this is a problem upstream in
video-media, but will report here to try and get some help!
Willing to put in the hours this side to get to the bottom of this,
sorry I don't have the programming skills to attack it myself.
All the problems historically that the HVR-4000 has had in v4l were supposed to
be fixed in 3.0...
Let me know what additional info you might want?

Hi Jonathan,

It was actually broken for months (including 3.0), and not fixed until 3.1.

I'm assuming you're having problems with dvb-s and dvb-t?  Please
clarify exactly which standards aren't working for you?

Also, take Xen out of the picture.  Validate it isn't working in a
regular system.  Virtualization is definitely a source of problems and
should be ruled out.

Any suspicious output in dmesg?

i also have hvr-4000 but havent tried it on recent kernels yet.

i get no lock problems only with dvb-s2 but that is a hardware
limitation, that it is not able to get right parameters. i dont know if
they did something with it. would be about time however.

i am alos curious what he means by "try to use it". i mean did he try
to use it with tzap, or szap, or w_scan, or what? because i dont even
know about mythtv, i only use dvbutils, mplayer, xine and vdr.

I agree with Lars on this.  It would be useful if the user could
describe in more detail his testing methodology.  Also, is there some
previous kernel in which he knew it was working properly?  Has he
*ever* seen it work in his environment?  Do we know definitively that
this really a regression or has the user never seen the board work?

I think your problem and mine are the same
I've too an hauppauge dvb-t

Since upgrade from kernel 2.6.38 to 2.6.39/3.0 channels can't be lock.

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

[jonathanjstevens]

OK, sure... bit more history...

I've struggled along with the card for many year. Was previously in a
F12 x64, with the http://hg.kewl.org/pub/v4l-dvb-20100517/ DVB modules
compiled in and everything worked except MythTV. Then with a few
kludges to MythTV everything ended up working.

The system is a "under the stairs server" so does a fair few things
for me, quite a few VMs (hence Xen), mythtvbackend with a few tuners,
file server, etc...

Last year to get the Xen support I moved to OpenSuse 11.4, and again
had to patch v4l modules and MythTV.

So, I didn't really get on with OpenSuse at all, and was keen to get
back to Fedora. F16 provides the upstream support for dom0 under Xen
(I'm not one for compiling my own kernel - that's a bit out of my
comfort zone).

So been testing the F16 and all seemed fine, so went for the move. I
also spotted http://www.kernellabs.com/blog/?p=1568 from which I
figured that I'd probably be fairly safe wrt the HVR-4000 - should
have tested it I suppose, but there we go...

So, the system itself is all known to work with patched opensuse 11.4
and patched MythTV (which shouldn't be necessary now as per the above
links) and Xen did not get in the way.

Now, more details:

First off, I have no satellite, so this is all about DVB-T
(terrestrial UK/Freeview)

MythTV could not scan the HVR-4000, but was fine with my Nova USB, fed
from same wire.

So, I tried scandvb (not sure why it's called scandvb instead of
dvbscan in Fedora). Did not manage to find any services.
So, I tried w_scan, and again was unable to discover any services.
It looks a bit like it finds the transponders (sometimes) but mutters
about timeout loading filters.

I then used the Nova to scan for channels with w_scan, which worked,
and I used the resulting output to successfully get FE_LOCK with tzap
on the HVR-4000.
However, using the transponder information from w_scan with scandvb
did not find any services.

I thought therefore it might just be a tuning issue, so used the
tuning info from the Nova in MythTV for the HVR-4000. MythTV reports
"Partial Lock".

dmesg does not report any errors that I can see.

I'm happy to post up a pile of diags, but don't want to bombard the
list with stuff you're not interested in - so if you tell me what
you'd like me to run/test I'll happily do that. I will verify Xen is
not causing this in the meantime.

Here is a very verbose scandvb...

Kaffeine was also unable to scan channels.

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

[jonathanjstevens]

I've just done some tests without Xen.

The situation does change, in that scandvb finds the services (so no
more "filter timeouts"). Kaffeine also manages to scan the channels OK
- however despite managing to scan, tune and get the EPG there is no
picture on any channel.

I can't test MythTV without Xen, as it relies on an SQL database that
is on a Xen VM.

Not sure where to go with this next? The card worked Ok through Xen
(am running all this in dom0 by the way) with Opensuse (once patches
applied) and the version of Xen is not very different - although the
dom0 kernel will be I guess.

Hi Jonathon,

I would make two suggestions to you.

1. Check on the Mythtv forums (and post the question there), if you
haven't already. They may have a bit more insight into the card with
their system.  And they may be able to sort out the lack of picture
(even though it's not on their software).

2.  If you can allocate a lower percentage of processor and/or memory
to the Xen VM, that may solve part of the problem. My theory is that
Xen is using too much of the CPU and/or memory right now, and
everything else has to fight for what's left. Which means that when
you try using the card, it's basically getting scraps.  So it times
out and can't scan.  That's why it works (better at least) when Xen is
off.  If you can't allocate lower percentages, then maybe trying
Virtualbox or VMWare would work.  But, I would see what all you can do
with Xen first.

Have a great weekend. :)
Patrick.

If you're running Xen, then as far as I'm concerned you're on a
*totally* unsupported path.  If it happened to have worked in some
previous version, it was dumb luck.

As for you issue when not using Xen, you're probably just missing the
Kaffeine libraries required for video playback (a common problem).
Did you try the Nova-T on that box to confirm playback works at all?

HVR-4000 quite a tale of woe with MythTV, see earlier posts. Been
patching for years, but I don't think this is a MythTV issue, not
something they can do much about.

Not really following you here. I'm running all this in dom0.
There is 16GB of memory in the system, and it's an i3, and nothing
else is really running.
I've allocated 4GB to dom0, and even with all the other VMs running,
CPU usage is low and there's about 7GB free.
I'm not doing any kind of PCI passthru, and in fact the main reason
I'm running Xen is that it allows me to run mythtv in dom0 and get
"direct" access to the PCI DVB cards.

That seems a bit harsh but I understand your point. Running a
hypervisor is far from unusual. I half expected this sort of response
(not my problem mate). But, considering it's Xen dom0, I'm surprised
there is nothing I can do?

Nova-T works perfectly in MythTV on Xen. I haven't tried it in
Kaffeine - you could be entirely right here. Whichever - because it's
apparent there is a Xen versus dvb issue.

I guess what I'd fall back to, xen dom0 support is now a part of the
mainline kernel - so it shouldn't conflict with with particular
hardware support such as that for the HVR-4000. It's obvious it "can"
work, but from what I'm hearing from you - no-one would own this.

I don't mind putting the hours in to resolve this, I really don't, but
I don't have sufficient knowledge to do this on my own.

Try mplayer (or VLC) directly.
Kaffeine uses a pipe from mplayer.
I use VLC to open my channels.conf (I forget which file format, mplayer format?) which works.
Mplayer doesn't work very well on my system but vlc does.

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

[jonathanjstevens]

Thanks all for your feedback.

I've been investigating the Xen angle as well and there seem to be
quite a few reports of DVB cards not working in Xen at the moment.

The culprit "appears" to be something to do with DMA, although whether
it's Xen or the drivers remains to be seen
.
>From what I can tell, the card tunes OK but then when the driver tries
to access the datastream (via DMA) things go bad.

If anyone knows of a good way to look deeper into this area - please
let me know!

Anyway, I'm going to go and hassle the Xen developers to see if they
can shed some more light on this.

I'll also have a play with vlc.

Re: HVR-4000 may be broken in kernel mods (again) ?

[jonathanjstevens]

I'd be much obliged if someone could give me some interpretation on
the following?

If I read it right, this means that the tuner tunes OK, and then the
filter loads OK (no error message on the filter load), but no data is
being returned? If so, could this be a DMA problem? Would anyone know
a way to look closer at that?

This is from the a working USB DVB:




Take from a "strace -ttt -f -F -v scandvb -a 1 -f1 -d 0 -5 -v -v -v -5
~/dvbscan.channels.conf"
