Subject: dvb-c: TT C-1501: tda827x.c: Cannot hold lock at 746 MHz
Date: Sat, 02 Oct 2010 16:43:21 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CA74509.6000404@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

Klaas patch is not complete:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.dvb/47571

I found a hole at 746MHz with 2.6.34.0 kernel and DE provider kabelbw.de,
Picture fragments and audio bursts only:

Current parameters:
     Frequency:  746000.000 kHz
     Inversion:  ON
     Symbol rate:  6.900000 MSym/s
     FEC:  none
     Modulation:  QAM 64

Card is just bought newly:

00:06.0 0480: 1131:7146 (rev 01)
	Subsystem: 13c2:101a
	Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 17
	Memory at fbeffc00 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=512]
	Kernel driver in use: budget_ci dvb

Other (tested favourite) channels are tuned in fine.

No network problems for this transponder reported in cable provider's support forums.

Anyone got the chips datasheet or a hint what to tweak in the tda827xa_dvbc[] for this frequency?

{ .lomax = 802000000, .svco = 2, .spd = 0, .scr = 2, .sbs = 4, .gc3 = 1}, ?

thx,
Y
tom
