   dongs: <u>xdarklight</u>: i get it
   <br> my mistake in typing from datasheet, because it doesnt allow copypaste
   <br> "AGCRD[15:6] is valid and it is 10 bit binary"
   <br> so only 15:6 bits are valid
   <br> thats why the shift right by 6
   <br> interesting
   <br> looking at 472 driver, AGCRD is read by upper &lt;&lt; 8 | lower &gt;&gt; 6
   <br> lets see what 472 says about agcrd
   <br> this is from 472: Valid data for this 10-bit binary value consists of AGCRD[15:6].
   <br> Small values indicate low signal levels, while large values indicate
   <br> high signal levels.
   <br> haha, i think 472 sample code is wrong
   <br> gg
   <br> in either c ase, max value for 10bit is 1023
   <br> i guess on both should just (upper&lt;&lt;8|lower) &gt;&gt; 6 to make it readable
   <br> and i sent off email to pana FAE asking whats the range of the stuff supposed to be
   <br> but I guess with 10bits they'll probly just say 0 to 1023 :)
   xdarklight: <u>dongs</u>: ah, thanks for the update :) will have a look at this once I've more time than the 5 minutes I got right now
   ***: awalls has left
   xdarklight: <u>dongs</u>: the range could still be a bit strange, because ((upper &lt;&lt; 8) | (lower)) &gt;&gt; 6 gives us our 10 bit value
   <br> for the DVB api I have to scale it up to 16 bits
   <br> which means multiply with 64 for example, which is identical to &lt;&lt; 6
   <br> that gives us back our original number
   <br> which I've not seen even near 1023 (I think 0x2fe = 766 was the biggest number I've seen so far)
   dongs: <u>xdarklight</u>: &lt;&lt;8&gt;&gt;6 is wrong
   <br> it leaves empty shit in the middle.
   <br> the correct way (and most readable) is just make uint16_t wiht (upper &lt;&lt; 8 | lower) &gt;&gt; 6
   <br> oh right oyu said that
   <br> anyway, email was sent yesterday expectin some reply at some point
