What is the maximum symbol rate supported by dvb cards?

[linux-dvb] Terratec Cinergy PCI C HDTV

[nick]

Hi - Has anybody successfully managed to watch HDTV using the Terratec Cinergy 
PCI C card?  If is switch to a HD channel using Kaffeine nothing happens and 
after a couple of minutes the program freezes and does not reponse anymore. 
Any ideas what I might have done wrong? Thanks Nick

I'm no expert here, but as far as I can tell the hardware driver has
nothing to do with it. These budget cards always capture the whole
transport stream and use software demux to get the parts which are
requested, they don't care at all what type of data is in the stream
(and even if they'd have hardware demux, it's possible they could do it
but is not implemented, they still wouldn't care about the type of
data). If it doesn't work, it's likely kaffeine/libxine/ffmpeg's fault.
For the record, when I got the chance to play with this, it indeed
"kinda" worked, but it was so unstable it usually segfaulted within a
second or so - apparently libxine (1.12) didn't like the stream too
much. Or maybe it's because my cpu was too slow and it had to drop
frames that it crashed (which would be bad behaviour indeed...), though
I think there are still problems with some of the h.264 features HD
channels might use (like PAFF interlacing). Maybe you'd have more luck
with cvs libxine, YMMV.

There might be bug in the driver.

Someone has similar problem in unbuntu-fi forum and he has hacked driver 
to get it working. Hacked solution is most probably wrong and could be 
break other functionality. Feel free to try.

No, this bug got fixed recently (and it broke the driver completely, the
parent poster only seems to have trouble with HD channels).
