Analogue TV seems to work already (audio probably not)


There's some experimental code in
So...


http://linuxtv.org/hg/~mrechberger/v4l-dvb-kernel
Excuse me for beeing dumb and stupid, but I just took Marcus' code for [[Em2880]] from his repository at
[http://linuxtv.org/hg/~mrechberger/v4l-dvb-kernel http://linuxtv.org/hg/~mrechberger/v4l-dvb-kernel]


Setup:
And added XC3028 tuner defintion to SAA7134 code, leaving gpio initialization as for AverMedia E500 card.
<pre>

modprobe xc3028-tuner
(XC3028 code works with XC3018 tuner fine)
modprobe saa7134

</pre>
Guess what? It worked :)

Don't forget to fetch XC tuner firmware, that is needed by tuner driver, it's documented in the Em2880 Wiki

See [[Em2880]] page for more details.

So... someone, please assign E506R valid card id insted 99, cleanup and include this code to the tree, etc.

The only viewer program working for me is TVtime. KDEtv and Mplayer show different weird stuff and errors,
however this can be due to my idiotism.

Please don't forget to load required kernel modules before saa7134:

* tuner
* xc3028_tuner

Otherwise card will be detected without tuner.

Revision as of 15:01, 18 December 2006

Avermedia

AVerMedia TV+FM CardBus E506R

Info

Original product page

AVermedia released their card with binary only driver for Mandriva and FC3/4. For ancient kernels of course. Due to licensing from chip vendor and the fact that AVerMedia is a proud GPL violator -- they do not bother publishing source for their driver that is actually based on V4L.

Looking inside the card we can see that it is:

  • Philips SAA7135HL PCI Audio/Video Broadcast Decoder
  • Xceive XC3018 Silicon Tuner
  • Zarlink MT352 Digital Terrestrial TV Demodulator

Analogue TV seems to work already (audio probably not)

There's some experimental code in

http://linuxtv.org/hg/~mrechberger/v4l-dvb-kernel

Setup: 

modprobe xc3028-tuner
modprobe saa7134
