[linux-dvb] Re: Hauppauge Nova-T 2000 XP 9002 solved



I forgot to mention that digital radio also works, just that I hadn't tried previously.

I still have same problems with xawtv. xine says I don't have a tuner 0, v4l-info says I have. With tzap running and dvbstream piped to mplayer, I have sound and video. It is choppy on both audio and video, with some freezing of the video at times and eventually audio stops. It says my XP2800+/512M and FX5200 is not fast enough even with a number of mplayer switches turned on. Well, at least I've seen something at last, progress along the road ......

udev is now creating all the devices including /dev/video0 and /dev/vbi0 and an strace of xawtv says the device is OK, but I can still only get sound on any station I tune to and with the same error "Can't play video stream". Now using xawtv-20050121-175503. The logs and the strace don't give a clue as to what it's unahppy about.

Hauppauge card with Conexant chipset using xawtv 20050119 snapshot and video4linux-20050119-120155.tar.gz. No problems with sound, error "Can't play video stream" comes up.
Mandrake 10.1 with udev-0.50. I have the following devices, I created them as udev didn't, no doubt because all the modules weren't loaded at boot.
# l /dev/dvb/adapter0/

I created these on the fly, but it didn't make a diference.

I just did a modprobe of tvmixer and tuner, probably not needed.
What am I missing here.
Thanks and Regards

Well, finally got it fully working with kaffeine-dvb from the kaxtv site, I have to kill artsd to get sound, the kde setup doesn't seem to work though "lsof /dev/dsp" says it's not in use. Added cx88-dvb to /etc/modprobe.preload and all modules load from boot.

The blurb for this card mentions digital radio, but nothing about how to. Has anyone got any ideas on that feature?
