I'm trying to get an Hauppauge HVR-1600 card running, based on
information from the Gentoo Wiki, the IVTV Wiki, google, and lists.
(This list, the mythtv list, and searching LIRC archives.)
I'm running a 2.6.25 kernel and v4l-dvb sources pulled tonight. As a
side note, the saa5249 driver with this drop does not compile for me. I
don't remember from previous attempts if it's needed or not. Google
hasn't helped me determine this. I also tried Andy Walls' tree a few
weeks back, but for some reason it didn't integrate properly with my
source tree, and though it compiled, it didn't install any modules.
Incidentally, this system also has a bttv card installed, which I'm
currently using for video capture. I hope to replace it with a pair of
HVR-1600s.

As of now, I can get modules loading:

When I try "mplayer /dev/video1" it suggests I try a few options. I did
some trial and error with that, and with modprobe ivtv before cx18. So
the latest when I try "mplayer -vf spp,scale /dev/video1":

************************************************
**** Your system is too SLOW to play this! ****
************************************************
Possible reasons, problems, workarounds:
- Most common: broken/buggy _audio_ driver
- Try -ao sdl or use the OSS emulation of ALSA.
- Experiment with different values for -autosync, 30 is a good start.
- Slow video output
- Try a different -vo driver (-vo help for a list) or try -framedrop!
- Slow CPU
- Don't try to play a big DVD/DivX on a slow CPU! Try some of the
lavdopts,
e.g. -vfm ffmpeg -lavdopts lowres=1:fast:skiploopfilter=all.
- Broken file
- Try various combinations of -nobps -ni -forceidx -mc 0.
- Slow media (NFS/SMB mounts, DVD, VCD etc)
- Try -cache 8192.
- Are you using -cache to play a non-interleaved AVI file?
- Try -nocache.
Read DOCS/HTML/en/video.html for tuning/speedup tips.
If none of this helps you, read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would truly appreciate any suggestions or instructions for getting
this beast working. When it's fully in service I plan to put it on
svideo behind a Comcast set-top box, using the IR blaster. But I know
that's another ongoing story, just like cx18. I see today on LKML that
they merged bidi LIRC for practically everything but the HVR-1600.
Thanks,

Some questions and things to try: 1. Do you set the mmio_ndelay module option to anything specific when you load the cx18 module? (The very latest v4l-dvb defaults it to 0). 2. What does dmesg or /var/log/messages output look like when the module is loaded? 3. What is the output of $ v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video1 --log-status 4. Do this sequence of commands $ cat /dev/video1 > foo0.mpg ^C $ cat /dev/video1 > foo1.mpg ^C $ mplayer foo1.mpg -vo x11 (You can drop the '-vo x11' if you now your card supports Xv with X.) Do you see a good capture being played back? The first analog capture in file foo0.mpg will playback in a jumpy manner: it's a known cx18 bug. 5. Run a capture using caching but not scaling $ mplayer /dev/video1 -cache 16384 -vo x11 (Again drop the '-vo x11' if you know Xv works for you.) That should be a buffered live capture. The last numer on the mplayer status line is the percent cache fill. If it drops to 0 the playback may get a little jumps every so often. (I'm looking into how to remove the need to buffer output from the cx18 driver before playback - it's a driver problem.) > When it's fully in service I plan to put it on > svideo behind a Comcast set-top box, using the IR blaster. > But I know > that's another ongoing story, Yeah, fixing up the lirc_pvr150 driver to support the hvr1600 is on my list of things to do, but it's way way down there. It involves capturing commands as they are issued to the Zilog chip on a windows box; and I don't currently have a setup to do that. > just like cx18. I see today on LKML that > they merged bidi LIRC for practically everything but the HVR-1600. There's nothing to merge for the HVR-1600 really. The lirc_pvr150 module itself really only needs minor modifications. It's capturing the library of octet strings to command the IR chip for the HVR-1600 that's the hangup.

VDec: vo config request - 720 x 480 (preferred colorspace: Planar YV12) VDec: using Planar YV12 as output csp (no 0) Movie-Aspect is 1.33:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect. VO: [x11] 720x480 => 720x540 Planar YV12 By the way, should I be doing a "modprobe ivtv" prior to "modprobe cx18"? When I was fooling around with it the other night, I noticed that loading ivtv first did change the symptoms, and may have increased the apparent functionality, though I may also be interpreting that wrong. I notice that there doesn't appear to be any direct dependence between ivtv and cx18, though both do use several other modules. I also thought I saw that cx18 used pieces (as in source code) of ivtv, but didn't depend directly on it. Is it also possible that ivtv is hurting? A quick "rmmod ivtv cx18 && modprobe cx18", and the v4l2-ctl command above gives the same results. I think the crux of my problem is the lack of video signal, but don't understand it.

Just realize that at the default mmio_ndelay=0 you are *relying* on your motherboard hardware to fix things when the CX23418 doesn't respond properly.

The CX23418 and CX23416 have so much in common, that the cx18 driver is heavily based on (*cough* cut and paste *cough*) ivtv.

Your missing the tuner module or you need the mmio_ndelay parameter set.

Then I tried unloading all of the v4l pieces I could readily find, including the bttv driver, and tried modprobing cx18 with the delay, again.

(Sorry about the line-wrap) The only real difference I see is that this timer there is no: cx18-0: Unreasonably low latency timer, setting to 64 (was 32) ... PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:04.0 to 64 Still no tuner messages. I see from the tveeprom line that it's got a "TCL M2523_5N_E", which in the source references TCL 2002N, which matches your listing. I also tried blacklisting my bttv driver, in case there's some sort of contention or confusion between the two inside tuner-simple. Unfortunately it didn't work, though I've been able to blacklist cx18. (so bttv can grab video0 and be ready for MythTV) I need to look at the Gentoo docs harder, because ISTR that there may be something more than just /etc/modprobe.conf needed for blacklisting. I got some other messages a bit later that might be relevant: it87: Found IT8712F chip at 0x290, revision 7 it87: in3 is VCC (+5V) it87: in7 is VCCH (+5V Stand-By) it87 it87.656: Detected broken BIOS defaults, disabling PWM interface It's lm_sensor stuff, but it it possible that that "broken BIOS defaults" is part of the tuner problem, since they're both i2c?
