Hiho,
I just exchanged the not working Pinnacle card with a TechniSat SkyStar2
card. Everything up to a first test with szap went fine, but I can't
view any video. /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0 always gives EOF.
I tried the shipped Kernel 2.6.6 drivers from Debian unstable, the
linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1 tarball and a recent CVS checkout: made no difference.
This is the dmesg output from insmod.sh:
Linux video capture interface: v1.00

From my understanding the following should work:
* start "szap -n 1" (with an appropriate ~/.szap/channels.conf) and
keep it running
* view the ts stream with xine or mplayer by reading
/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0
szap works fine. I get FE_HAS_LOCK quickly.
status 1f | signal c0cc | snr d5f9 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK
But the latter doesn't work, because the device always gives EOF. A
simple
% cat /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0
should result in a nice garbage in the terminal, but this command simply
exits (EOF).
% xine -v dvb://
doesn't work either. xine's log output contains this line
input_dvb: cannot open dvb device
but nothing more. I tried strace to see which device file xine accesses
here, but couldn't find anything useful.
I also tried enabling the debug mode (./insmod.sh debug). This is an
excerpt of /var/log/messages when running szap in debugging mode:

Don't understand much but at least I can't see any error message ;)
What am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jörn
