I cant view video. BUT I can scan!!

I can "dvbscan" and "tzap", and gets indication of a good signal. BUT, = I cant view the video! (from the dvb device) Also "dvbdate" command works (that returns time and date from the air, I = presume). But not a command as "dvbsnoop" (that need = "/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr"). A sample: ( Its step by step of your guide: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Testing_your_DVB_device ) In one console I run: /.tzap# tzap -r -c channels.conf "TV4 =D6resund" ( = and are getting lines as: status 1f | signal c3c3 | snr ffff | ber 0000004a | unc 00000000 | = FE_HAS_LOCK status 1f | signal c3c3 | snr ffff | ber 0000004e | unc 00000000 | = FE_HAS_LOCK ... AND in another console: mplayer -v /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 (thats basically halts without any further information) ALSO if I type: "cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 > afile.txt" (But then again, "afile.txt" remains empty) Conclusion, /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 never returns anything. This = "/dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr" isnt proper. Must be a Linux-kernel/module = problem.. Here are some further info of whats on my system: * Media Card: "Asus P7131 Hybrid" (This very same Media-card worked on an older machine, an old Pentium, = that I now abandoned. Maybe I used the line "card=3D112 i2c_scan=3D1 = tunar=3D54 gpio_tracking=3D1" when loading "saa7134" kernel-module, for = this. By a gento wiki-tips (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_saa7134). I = tested this line on this AMD64 machine also, but didnt make any = difference.. * Linux-kernel, "2.6.22-3-amd64" (The only kernel I see in my = Debian-testing apt list, cant use any other kernel, strange also..) * The system, Its some dual AMD64, mother-board Asus "M2A-VM HDMI" (a = card with most stuff built-in, as sound graphics.. etc) A common card = (for building computers aimed toward media, as this is). * Mplayer (for what its matter, gnu "cat" dint work ether, so it doesnt = matter). I have compiled Mplayer myself, with everything possible = included. Also, I have tested Debians deb-package called the same name, = but without success (or difference). Maybe I could include the returns of the old and new "lsmod", but the = only difference there regarding this is, that I now dont use Alsa (sound = system). Now I use the default outof-the-box-configurations (a fresh = installation, this my system is, now). So I dont include what "lsmod" = returns, in this email (because then I can continue with "lspci" "dmsg", = and all possible and impossible sniff logs.. I dont know what may be = relevant info, to solve this. Any comments and Ideers are welcome! ! thx. I just signed up for this mailing-list ( I hope this is the right = forum.. thanx again. Also I hope the solution is simple. -- = Mvh, Per Blomqvist Web: http://phoohb.shellkonto.se Telnr: +46 70-3355632 _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
