[linux-dvb] How to start with Pinnacle PCTV Sat

[Volker Cordes <MrLogic@gmx.de>]

Hi,

I tried to get my Pinnacle PCTV Sat to work with Linux. I compiled the
kernel (2.4.20) after having applied the bttv patches. Then I compiled
v4l2 and bttv 0.9.4 with patches from dvb-kernel (1.0.0-pre2).
After that I installed all modules (kernel, v4l2, bttv, dvb-kernel).
Installing the modules seems to work, I get the following output of lsmod:
dvb-bt8xx               2896   0  (unused)
bt878                   4208   0  [dvb-bt8xx]
dvb-core               35820   1  [dvb-bt8xx]
tuner                   9568   0  (unused)
bttv                   77920   0  [dvb-bt8xx]
video-buf               9760   0  [bttv]
i2c-algo-bit            7144   1  [bttv]
i2c-core               13188   0  [tuner bttv i2c-algo-bit]
v4l2-common             2528   0  [bttv]
videodev                5824   2  [bttv]

I also created the devices with makedev.napi:
htpc:~# ls -l /dev/dvb/adapter0
total 0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   1 Apr  6 11:16 audio0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   6 Apr  6 11:16 ca0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   4 Apr  6 11:16 demux0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   5 Apr  6 11:16 dvr0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   3 Apr  6 11:16 frontend0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   7 Apr  6 11:16 net0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   8 Apr  6 11:16 osd0
crwxrwxrwx    1 root     video    250,   0 Apr  6 11:16 video0

When I try to run szap now (channels.conf exists) I get the following error:
htpc:~# szap "RTL Television"
zapping to 'RTL Television':
sat 0, frequency = 12188 MHz H, symbolrate 27500000, vpid = 0x00a3, apid
= 0x0068
opening SEC failed: No such file or directory

What am I doing wrong?

Thanx,
Volker
