The hybrid fix finally hit mainline it seems

I don't remember who in here I was talking to about that
It was a while back
There it is :D http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/media_tree.git/commit/?id=856260a57cdfa5c121c7b7a6e816409bab07885c

Ok weird issue. I've tried a couple different USB ports, plugged into powered hub, straight into computer, but my HVR-850 tuner (xc5000) is having some weird glitches in the v4l output. Happens in both tvtime and VLC so I think it's either a driver issue or maybe my USB bus in geeneral is borked. I don't have another machine to test on at the moment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZP0YbMwjp8
Linux rcvrd 4.1.3-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jul 22 20:37:12 CEST 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I've also thought it might be bad cable. Sometimes the screens almost all green until I unplug and plug the composite adapter back it
*screen's
So I'm not quite sure whats' going on
*what's
Ooops I see #v4l might be better suited for this

Parker_:/ xc5000 still seems to be doing memory corruption. I tried to play in VLC and was getting a "Cannot allocate memory" error from VLC cli output. That exited fine and then I launched tvtime and it went green, then blue, then the whole system froze [15:32]

syntroPiHey guys im trying to get a channels.conf with w_scan, but for some reason it always hangs on the same transponder "no data from NIT(other) after 51 seconds... How would i prevent that and have it continue scanning?
its DVB-C and the usb stick is pctv nano 520e
i ran this command as root: "w_scan -v -fc -c DE -X -R 0 -T 1 -O 0 -E 0 -F -t 2"
can i somehow specify a timeout so if w_scan hits it it just will ignore and continue scanning?
[16:36]
ParkerR_syntroPi, you already have tuning timeout in your command
Im not sure why it would be throwing that error
[16:49]
syntroPi, -F Long filter timeout for reading data from hardware.
Maybe take that away?
[16:57]
syntroPiParkerR_, yeah i tried that before with same result, hence i thought it might help to add that
it seems to hang indefinitely after that "Info: no data from NIT(other) after 51 seconds"
when i ctrl+c it just exits without any transponders output
it worked before though, i upgraded to ubuntu 15.04 and now i cant scan sucessfully anymore :-/
ParkerR_, is there a more sophisticated/modern tool for scanning dvb-c these days?
[17:05]
..... (idle for 23mn)
some guys from #ubuntu recommended dvb-apps /usr/bin/dvbscan
is that more modern than w_scan?
[17:33]

ParkerR_syntroPi, No idea. Ive always used w_scan. w_scan -fa -A1 -c US -L > vlc.xspf [18:02]
mchehabdvbscan is really old stuff [18:03]
ParkerR_Yeah I was thinking w_scan was at least a little newer [18:03]
syntroPiwell it afaik it was the only one that was able to produce a working channels.conf with my pctv usb nano 520e stick but now it just freezes... i guess i will need to buy another adapter then
:-/
i tried to scan with "-t 1", "-t 2" and "-t 3"

ParkerR_syntroPi, Join the club. I love my HVR-850 to death but its seriously in need of replacing
Preferrably something with an H264 encoder built in
Ive been eyeing http://www.amazon.com/Hauppauge-1192-HVR-1955-External-Recorder/dp/B00198MYB0/
External power supply is also a big plus
[18:39]
Ogod it got worse :( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCZBD-he_eI
Weirdly enough it does work in Windows just fine
Furthir leading me to believe bad USB bus on the Linux laptop/driver issue
*Furthur
The annoying thing that is in Windows even with game mode enabled (disables any buffering) it still lags quite a bit
[18:51]
syntroPihmm aint there some dbv-c2 standards emerging?
ParkerR_, hmm aint that device buffering internally by itself?
[18:56]
ParkerR_Might be
But in Linux when its working the delay is much less
Which is why Im kinda bummed out :(
[19:01]
syntroPii was quite happy with my usb pctv nano 520e stick its so sad it stopped working
well the stick is still working but w_scan or its backends are broken
[19:02]
ParkerR_syntroPi, Have you tried mythtv/tvheadend?
The latter is much easier to get setup
Both support DVB from what Ive used
Also Id love my tuner a lot more but ATSC reception in my area is crap
I have to be outside to get decent signal. Kinda defeats trying just to watch something inside to pass the time
[19:05]
syntroPi, Ive had some good times with this tuner https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAA1E9FF250BDEAF3
Wait thats not all Xbox videos lol
