Hi Community

I am struggling to enjoy DVB-T on my AverTV E506 PCMCIA card. It seams
I'm doing something terribly wrong but I cannot find the solution on my
own. I am grateful for any help provided.

What I did so far:

I'm running Gentoo with a 2.6.24-r8 kernel on my Centrino Laptop. I have
selected "Video for Linux" (nothing else, no cards, no frontends, no
chips..) as a module in my kernel configuration and compiled the
"v4l-dvb" drivers from the mercurial repository. I also have obtained
the (hopefully) correct firmware for my card.

Well when I plug the PCMCIA device in this is what dmesg shows me:

pccard: CardBus card inserted into slot 1
PCI: Enabling device 0000:04:00.0 (0000 -> 0002)

Analog TV works with this setup, but I have no signs of DVB-T. No
/dev/dvb devices are created although the module for the Zarlink tuner
"mt352" is autoloaded when the card is inserted.

Apparently I'm missing something.

Any hints?

Best regards

Luke

Hi Luke,
I got this card going just using a stock standard ubuntu-generic kernel.
I didn't reconfigure the kernel at all.
I simply install v4l-dvb, reboot and away we go.

It sounds like you may be using a custom gentoo kernel, perhaps?
One thought that could be a possibility, in your config file, have you 
also selected v4l2?

I'm afraid I don't know too much about gentoo.

Regards,
Timf

  I have the AVerMedia AVerTV Hybrid+FM PCI A16D which, from what I
can see, is basically your card in PCI form. (same tuner, same demod,
same driver, same firmware, etc...)

  I am successfully using the same firmware your output below shows.

If you see my dmesg output[1] I have a DVB registration after the
analogues. Perhaps the saa7134-dvb module may not be being loaded.
What does the output of `lsmod|grep saa7134` give?
See mine[2], (N.B. I'm missing saa7134-alsa which enables audio for analogue)

cheers,
Owen.

Hi there, 

the requested "lsmod | grep saa" 

Hi Community, as requested my "lsmod | grep saa" after inserting the card:

saa7134_dvb            13580  0
videobuf_dvb            3524  1 saa7134_dvb

saa7134               107028  1 saa7134_dvb
videodev               27520  2 tuner,saa7134

videobuf_core          11204  3 videobuf_dvb,saa7134,videobuf_dma_sg

ir_common              29060  2 saa7134,ir_kbd_i2c
tveeprom               10244  1 saa7134

I notice that saa7134_dvb has 0 users! 

Could some of you lucky ubuntu users post or upload their kernel config ( hidden file at /usr/src/linux/.config ) ?
I think I have disabled something or I'm doing something fundamentally wrong.

Best regards

Luke

Your DVB device is vbi0

/dev/vbi0

see the last lines from your dmsg

I've tried vlc too it works also very well. You just have to point your tv app to read from vbi0

I think this is your problem

which program are you using for TV (I'm using kplayer that runs mplayer)

Hi 

With respect, I think the /dev/vbi0 device is responsible for teletext (videotext).
I require the whole /dev/dvb/adapter0/ structure to use dvbscan for channel scanning.
Currently I'm dissecting the driver source code, adding debug messages to certain section (pretty lame, I know but I'm out of options).

As far as I can tell "mt352_attach" gets called. I'm working on finding the weak spot.

regards

Luke
