A big thank you to everyone for getting me this far.... Especially Andrew de Quincey for writing the tda10045h driver.

(I suppose you have to thank Robert, too;)
enjoy your card and don't forget the sun is shining out there,
Indeed... a bit thank you to Robert too for all the hard work on the BDA driver on which the linux driver is based.

I don't seem to be able to tune to all the channels I should be able to get (based upon what I get with the windows software)...

I'm fine with getting 4 out of 6 of the frequencies used by the channel groups, but I have problems with two...

I've attached my channels.conf...

These two are the problem frequencies...

# Multiplex 2 Digital 3&4 - Channel 22, Offset -, Freq 481833333
CHANNEL4:481833333:INVERSION_OFF:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_NONE:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:2827:2828

# Multiplex A SDN - Channel 32, Offset -, Frequency 561833333
FIVE:561833333:INVERSION_OFF:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_NONE:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:6017:6018

Here's what I'm seeing...

Initially....

stimpy:/usr/src/DVB/apps/szap# ./tzap "FIVE"
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 561833333 Hz
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 00cf | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0001 | ber 000040f8 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0001 | ber 000040f8 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0001 | ber 000040f8 | unc 00000000 |

<often a long pause after the first few lines>
eventually snr changes and ber drops to 0... but we never get a FE_LOCK
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 004b | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0005 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0059 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 00 | signal 000b | snr 0003 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |

Thanks,

Jim.


P.S. Now just watch as someone points out that even aided with a copy of kcalc, I'm unable to do basic arithmetic... or some other similarly stupid problem.
