-Documentation for dvb-usb-framework module and its devices
-
-Idea behind the dvb-usb-framework
-=================================
-
-In March 2005 I got the new Twinhan USB2.0 DVB-T device. They provided specs and a firmware.
-
-Quite keen I wanted to put the driver (with some quirks of course) into dibusb.
-After reading some specs and doing some USB snooping, it realized, that the
-dibusb-driver would be a complete mess afterwards. So I decided to do it in a
-different way: With the help of a dvb-usb-framework.
-
-The framework provides generic functions (mostly kernel API calls), such as:
-
-- Transport Stream URB handling in conjunction with dvb-demux-feed-control
- (bulk and isoc are supported)
-- registering the device for the DVB-API
-- registering an I2C-adapter if applicable
-- remote-control/input-device handling
-- firmware requesting and loading (currently just for the Cypress USB
- controllers)
-- other functions/methods which can be shared by several drivers (such as
- functions for bulk-control-commands)
-- TODO: a I2C-chunker. It creates device-specific chunks of register-accesses
- depending on length of a register and the number of values that can be
- multi-written and multi-read.
-
-The source code of the particular DVB USB devices does just the communication
-with the device via the bus. The connection between the DVB-API-functionality
-is done via callbacks, assigned in a static device-description (struct
-dvb_usb_device) each device-driver has to have.
-
-For an example have a look in drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb/vp7045*.
-
-Objective is to migrate all the usb-devices (dibusb, cinergyT2, maybe the
-ttusb; flexcop-usb already benefits from the generic flexcop-device) to use
-the dvb-usb-lib.
-
-TODO: dynamic enabling and disabling of the pid-filter in regard to number of
-feeds requested.
-
-Supported devices

- 2004-05-14 - firmware loader is working
- 2004-05-11 - start writing the driver
-
-1. How to use?
-1.1. Firmware
-
-Most of the USB drivers need to download a firmware to the device before start
-working.
-
-Have a look at the Wikipage for the DVB-USB-drivers to find out, which firmware
-you need for your device:
-
-https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB_USB
-
-1.2. Compiling
-
-Since the driver is in the linux kernel, activating the driver in
-your favorite config-environment should sufficient. I recommend
-to compile the driver as module. Hotplug does the rest.
-
-If you use dvb-kernel enter the build-2.6 directory run 'make' and 'insmod.sh
-load' afterwards.
-
-1.3. Loading the drivers
-
-Hotplug is able to load the driver, when it is needed (because you plugged
-in the device).
-
-If you want to enable debug output, you have to load the driver manually and
-from within the dvb-kernel cvs repository.
-
-first have a look, which debug level are available:
-
-modinfo dvb-usb
-modinfo dvb-usb-vp7045
-etc.
-
-modprobe dvb-usb debug=<level>
-modprobe dvb-usb-vp7045 debug=<level>
-etc.
-
-should do the trick.
-
-When the driver is loaded successfully, the firmware file was in
-the right place and the device is connected, the "Power"-LED should be
-turned on.
-
-At this point you should be able to start a dvb-capable application. I'm use
-(t|s)zap, mplayer and dvbscan to test the basics. VDR-xine provides the
-long-term test scenario.
-
-2. Known problems and bugs
-
-- Don't remove the USB device while running an DVB application, your system
- will go crazy or die most likely.
-
-2.1. Adding support for devices
-
-TODO
-
-2.2. USB1.1 Bandwidth limitation
-
-A lot of the currently supported devices are USB1.1 and thus they have a
-maximum bandwidth of about 5-6 MBit/s when connected to a USB2.0 hub.
-This is not enough for receiving the complete transport stream of a
-DVB-T channel (which is about 16 MBit/s). Normally this is not a
-problem, if you only want to watch TV (this does not apply for HDTV),
-but watching a channel while recording another channel on the same
-frequency simply does not work very well. This applies to all USB1.1
-DVB-T devices, not just the dvb-usb-devices)
-
-The bug, where the TS is distorted by a heavy usage of the device is gone
-definitely. All dvb-usb-devices I was using (Twinhan, Kworld, DiBcom) are
-working like charm now with VDR. Sometimes I even was able to record a channel
-and watch another one.
-
-2.3. Comments
-
-Patches, comments and suggestions are very very welcome.
-
-3. Acknowledgements

-HOWTO: Get An Avermedia DVB-T working under Linux
- ______________________________________________
-
- Table of Contents
- Assumptions and Introduction
- The Avermedia DVB-T
- Getting the card going
- Receiving DVB-T in Australia
- Known Limitations
- Further Update
-
-Assumptions and Introduction
-
- It is assumed that the reader understands the basic structure
- of the Linux Kernel DVB drivers and the general principles of
- Digital TV.
-
- One significant difference between Digital TV and Analogue TV
- that the unwary (like myself) should consider is that,
- although the component structure of budget DVB-T cards are
- substantially similar to Analogue TV cards, they function in
- substantially different ways.
-
- The purpose of an Analogue TV is to receive and display an
- Analogue Television signal. An Analogue TV signal (otherwise
- known as composite video) is an analogue encoding of a
- sequence of image frames (25 per second) rasterised using an
- interlacing technique. Interlacing takes two fields to
- represent one frame. Computers today are at their best when
- dealing with digital signals, not analogue signals and a
- composite video signal is about as far removed from a digital
- data stream as you can get. Therefore, an Analogue TV card for
- a PC has the following purpose:
-
- * Tune the receiver to receive a broadcast signal
- * demodulate the broadcast signal
- * demultiplex the analogue video signal and analogue audio
- signal (note some countries employ a digital audio signal
- embedded within the modulated composite analogue signal -
- NICAM.)
- * digitize the analogue video signal and make the resulting
- datastream available to the data bus.
-
- The digital datastream from an Analogue TV card is generated
- by circuitry on the card and is often presented uncompressed.
- For a PAL TV signal encoded at a resolution of 768x576 24-bit
- color pixels over 25 frames per second - a fair amount of data
- is generated and must be processed by the PC before it can be
- displayed on the video monitor screen. Some Analogue TV cards
- for PCs have onboard MPEG2 encoders which permit the raw
- digital data stream to be presented to the PC in an encoded
- and compressed form - similar to the form that is used in
- Digital TV.
-
- The purpose of a simple budget digital TV card (DVB-T,C or S)
- is to simply:
-
- * Tune the received to receive a broadcast signal.
- * Extract the encoded digital datastream from the broadcast
- signal.
- * Make the encoded digital datastream (MPEG2) available to
- the data bus.
-
- The significant difference between the two is that the tuner
- on the analogue TV card spits out an Analogue signal, whereas
- the tuner on the digital TV card spits out a compressed
- encoded digital datastream. As the signal is already
- digitised, it is trivial to pass this datastream to the PC
- databus with minimal additional processing and then extract
- the digital video and audio datastreams passing them to the
- appropriate software or hardware for decoding and viewing.
- _________________________________________________________
-
-The Avermedia DVB-T
-
- The Avermedia DVB-T is a budget PCI DVB card. It has 3 inputs:
-
- * RF Tuner Input
- * Composite Video Input (RCA Jack)
- * SVIDEO Input (Mini-DIN)
-
- The RF Tuner Input is the input to the tuner module of the
- card. The Tuner is otherwise known as the "Frontend" . The
- Frontend of the Avermedia DVB-T is a Microtune 7202D. A timely
- post to the linux-dvb mailing list ascertained that the
- Microtune 7202D is supported by the sp887x driver which is
- found in the dvb-hw CVS module.
-
- The DVB-T card is based around the BT878 chip which is a very
- common multimedia bridge and often found on Analogue TV cards.
- There is no on-board MPEG2 decoder, which means that all MPEG2
- decoding must be done in software, or if you have one, on an
- MPEG2 hardware decoding card or chipset.
- _________________________________________________________
-
-Getting the card going
-
- In order to fire up the card, it is necessary to load a number
- of modules from the DVB driver set. Prior to this it will have
- been necessary to download these drivers from the linuxtv CVS
- server and compile them successfully.
-
- Depending on the card's feature set, the Device Driver API for
- DVB under Linux will expose some of the following device files
- in the /dev tree:
-
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/ca0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/osd0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/video0
-
- The primary device nodes that we are interested in (at this
- stage) for the Avermedia DVB-T are:
-
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0
- * /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
-
- The dvr0 device node is used to read the MPEG2 Data Stream and
- the frontend0 node is used to tune the frontend tuner module.
-
- At this stage, it has not been able to ascertain the
- functionality of the remaining device nodes in respect of the
- Avermedia DVBT. However, full functionality in respect of
- tuning, receiving and supplying the MPEG2 data stream is
- possible with the currently available versions of the driver.
- It may be possible that additional functionality is available
- from the card (i.e. viewing the additional analogue inputs
- that the card presents), but this has not been tested yet. If
- I get around to this, I'll update the document with whatever I
- find.
-
- To power up the card, load the following modules in the
- following order:
-
- * modprobe bttv (normally loaded automatically)
- * modprobe dvb-bt8xx (or place dvb-bt8xx in /etc/modules)
-
- Insertion of these modules into the running kernel will
- activate the appropriate DVB device nodes. It is then possible
- to start accessing the card with utilities such as scan, tzap,
- dvbstream etc.
-
- The frontend module sp887x.o, requires an external firmware.
- Please use the command "get_dvb_firmware sp887x" to download
- it. Then copy it to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware or /lib/firmware/
- (depending on configuration of firmware hotplug).
-
-Receiving DVB-T in Australia
-
- I have no experience of DVB-T in other countries other than
- Australia, so I will attempt to explain how it works here in
- Melbourne and how this affects the configuration of the DVB-T
- card.
-
- The Digital Broadcasting Australia website has a Reception
- locatortool which provides information on transponder channels
- and frequencies. My local transmitter happens to be Mount
- Dandenong.
-
- The frequencies broadcast by Mount Dandenong are:
-
- Table 1. Transponder Frequencies Mount Dandenong, Vic, Aus.
- Broadcaster Channel Frequency
- ABC VHF 12 226.5 MHz
- TEN VHF 11 219.5 MHz
- NINE VHF 8 191.625 MHz
- SEVEN VHF 6 177.5 MHz
- SBS UHF 29 536.5 MHz
-
- The Scan utility has a set of compiled-in defaults for various
- countries and regions, but if they do not suit, or if you have
- a pre-compiled scan binary, you can specify a data file on the
- command line which contains the transponder frequencies. Here
- is a sample file for the above channel transponders:
-# Data file for DVB scan program
-#
-# C Frequency SymbolRate FEC QAM
-# S Frequency Polarisation SymbolRate FEC
-# T Frequency Bandwidth FEC FEC2 QAM Mode Guard Hier
-T 226500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
-T 191625000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
-T 219500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
-T 177500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
-T 536500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
-
- The defaults for the transponder frequency and other
- modulation parameters were obtained from www.dba.org.au.
-
- When Scan runs, it will output channels.conf information for
- any channel's transponders which the card's frontend can lock
- onto. (i.e. any whose signal is strong enough at your
- antenna).
-
- Here's my channels.conf file for anyone who's interested:

-Known Limitations
-
- At present I can say with confidence that the frontend tunes
- via /dev/dvb/adapter{x}/frontend0 and supplies an MPEG2 stream
- via /dev/dvb/adapter{x}/dvr0. I have not tested the
- functionality of any other part of the card yet. I will do so
- over time and update this document.
-
- There are some limitations in the i2c layer due to a returned
- error message inconsistency. Although this generates errors in
- dmesg and the system logs, it does not appear to affect the
- ability of the frontend to function correctly.
- _________________________________________________________
-
-Further Update
-
- dvbstream and VideoLAN Client on windows works a treat with
- DVB, in fact this is currently serving as my main way of
- viewing DVB-T at the moment. Additionally, VLC is happily
- decoding HDTV signals, although the PC is dropping the odd
- frame here and there - I assume due to processing capability -
- as all the decoding is being done under windows in software.
-
- Many thanks to Nigel Pearson for the updates to this document
- since the recent revision of the driver.

-How to get the bt8xx cards working
-==================================
-
-1) General information
-======================
-
-This class of cards has a bt878a as the PCI interface, and require the bttv driver
-for accessing the i2c bus and the gpio pins of the bt8xx chipset.
-Please see Documentation/dvb/cards.txt => o Cards based on the Conexant Bt8xx PCI bridge:
-
-Compiling kernel please enable:
-a.)"Device drivers" => "Multimedia devices" => "Video For Linux" => "Enable Video for Linux API 1 (DEPRECATED)"
-b.)"Device drivers" => "Multimedia devices" => "Video For Linux" => "Video Capture Adapters" => "BT848 Video For Linux"
-c.)"Device drivers" => "Multimedia devices" => "Digital Video Broadcasting Devices" => "DVB for Linux" "DVB Core Support" "Bt8xx based PCI Cards"
-
-Please use the following options with care as deselection of drivers which are in fact necessary
-may result in DVB devices that cannot be tuned due to lack of driver support:
-You can save RAM by deselecting every frontend module that your DVB card does not need.
-
-First please remove the static dependency of DVB card drivers on all frontend modules for all possible card variants by enabling:
-d.) "Device drivers" => "Multimedia devices" => "Digital Video Broadcasting Devices"
- => "DVB for Linux" "DVB Core Support" "Load and attach frontend modules as needed"
-
-If you know the frontend driver that your card needs please enable:
-e.)"Device drivers" => "Multimedia devices" => "Digital Video Broadcasting Devices"
- => "DVB for Linux" "DVB Core Support" "Customise DVB Frontends" => "Customise the frontend modules to build"
- Then please select your card-specific frontend module.
-
-2) Loading Modules
-==================
-
-Regular case: If the bttv driver detects a bt8xx-based DVB card, all frontend and backend modules will be loaded automatically.
-Exceptions are:
-- Old TwinHan DST cards or clones with or without CA slot and not containing an Eeprom.
-People running udev please see Documentation/dvb/udev.txt.
-
-In the following cases overriding the PCI type detection for dvb-bt8xx might be necessary:
-
-2a) Running TwinHan and Clones
-------------------------------
-
- $ modprobe bttv card=113
- $ modprobe dst
-
-Useful parameters for verbosity level and debugging the dst module:
-
-verbose=0: messages are disabled
- 1: only error messages are displayed
- 2: notifications are displayed
- 3: other useful messages are displayed
- 4: debug setting
-dst_addons=0: card is a free to air (FTA) card only
- 0x20: card has a conditional access slot for scrambled channels
-
-The autodetected values are determined by the cards' "response string".
-In your logs see f. ex.: dst_get_device_id: Recognize [DSTMCI].
-For bug reports please send in a complete log with verbose=4 activated.
-Please also see Documentation/dvb/ci.txt.
-
-2b) Running multiple cards
---------------------------
-
-Examples of card ID's:
-
-Pinnacle PCTV Sat: 94
-Nebula Electronics Digi TV: 104
-pcHDTV HD-2000 TV: 112
-Twinhan DST and clones: 113
-Avermedia AverTV DVB-T 771: 123
-Avermedia AverTV DVB-T 761: 124
-DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Lite: 128
-DViCO FusionHDTV 5 Lite: 135
-
-Notice: The order of the card ID should be uprising:
-Example:
- $ modprobe bttv card=113 card=135
-
-For a full list of card ID's please see Documentation/video4linux/CARDLIST.bttv.
-In case of further problems please subscribe and send questions to the mailing list: linux-dvb@linuxtv.org.
-
-2c) Probing the cards with broken PCI subsystem ID
---------------------------------------------------
-There are some TwinHan cards that the EEPROM has become corrupted for some
-reason. The cards do not have correct PCI subsystem ID. But we can force
-probing the cards with broken PCI subsystem ID
-
- $ echo 109e 0878 $subvendor $subdevice > \
- /sys/bus/pci/drivers/bt878/new_id
-
-109e: PCI_VENDOR_ID_BROOKTREE
-0878: PCI_DEVICE_ID_BROOKTREE_878

-Hardware supported by the linuxtv.org DVB drivers
-=================================================
-
- Generally, the DVB hardware manufacturers frequently change the
- frontends (i.e. tuner / demodulator units) used, usually without
- changing the product name, revision number or specs. Some cards
- are also available in versions with different frontends for
- DVB-S/DVB-C/DVB-T. Thus the frontend drivers are listed separately.
-
- Note 1: There is no guarantee that every frontend driver works
- out of the box with every card, because of different wiring.
-
- Note 2: The demodulator chips can be used with a variety of
- tuner/PLL chips, and not all combinations are supported. Often
- the demodulator and tuner/PLL chip are inside a metal box for
- shielding, and the whole metal box has its own part number.

-* For the user
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-NOTE: This document describes the usage of the high level CI API as
-in accordance to the Linux DVB API. This is a not a documentation for the,
-existing low level CI API.
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-To utilize the High Level CI capabilities,
-
-(1*) This point is valid only for the Twinhan/clones
- For the Twinhan/Twinhan clones, the dst_ca module handles the CI
- hardware handling.This module is loaded automatically if a CI
- (Common Interface, that holds the CAM (Conditional Access Module)
- is detected.
-
-(2) one requires a userspace application, ca_zap. This small userland
- application is in charge of sending the descrambling related information
- to the CAM.
-
-This application requires the following to function properly as of now.
-
- (a) Tune to a valid channel, with szap.
- eg: $ szap -c channels.conf -r "TMC" -x
-
- (b) a channels.conf containing a valid PMT PID
- eg: TMC:11996:h:0:27500:278:512:650:321
-
- here 278 is a valid PMT PID. the rest of the values are the
- same ones that szap uses.
-
- (c) after running a szap, you have to run ca_zap, for the
- descrambler to function,
- eg: $ ca_zap channels.conf "TMC"
-
- (d) Hopefully enjoy your favourite subscribed channel as you do with
- a FTA card.
-
-(3) Currently ca_zap, and dst_test, both are meant for demonstration
- purposes only, they can become full fledged applications if necessary.
-
-
-* Cards that fall in this category
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-At present the cards that fall in this category are the Twinhan and its
-clones, these cards are available as VVMER, Tomato, Hercules, Orange and
-so on.
-
-* CI modules that are supported
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-The CI module support is largely dependent upon the firmware on the cards
-Some cards do support almost all of the available CI modules. There is
-nothing much that can be done in order to make additional CI modules
-working with these cards.
-
-Modules that have been tested by this driver at present are
-
-(1) Irdeto 1 and 2 from SCM
-(2) Viaccess from SCM
-(3) Dragoncam
-
-* The High level CI API
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-* For the programmer
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-With the High Level CI approach any new card with almost any random
-architecture can be implemented with this style, the definitions
-inside the switch statement can be easily adapted for any card, thereby
-eliminating the need for any additional ioctls.
-
-The disadvantage is that the driver/hardware has to manage the rest. For
-the application programmer it would be as simple as sending/receiving an
-array to/from the CI ioctls as defined in the Linux DVB API. No changes
-have been made in the API to accommodate this feature.
-
-
-* Why the need for another CI interface ?
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-This is one of the most commonly asked question. Well a nice question.
-Strictly speaking this is not a new interface.
-
-The CI interface is defined in the DVB API in ca.h as
-
-typedef struct ca_slot_info {
- int num; /* slot number */
-
- int type; /* CA interface this slot supports */
-#define CA_CI 1 /* CI high level interface */
-#define CA_CI_LINK 2 /* CI link layer level interface */
-#define CA_CI_PHYS 4 /* CI physical layer level interface */
-#define CA_DESCR 8 /* built-in descrambler */
-#define CA_SC 128 /* simple smart card interface */
-
- unsigned int flags;
-#define CA_CI_MODULE_PRESENT 1 /* module (or card) inserted */
-#define CA_CI_MODULE_READY 2
-} ca_slot_info_t;
-
-
-
-This CI interface follows the CI high level interface, which is not
-implemented by most applications. Hence this area is revisited.
-
-This CI interface is quite different in the case that it tries to
-accommodate all other CI based devices, that fall into the other categories.
-
-This means that this CI interface handles the EN50221 style tags in the
-Application layer only and no session management is taken care of by the
-application. The driver/hardware will take care of all that.
-
-This interface is purely an EN50221 interface exchanging APDU's. This
-means that no session management, link layer or a transport layer do
-exist in this case in the application to driver communication. It is
-as simple as that. The driver/hardware has to take care of that.
-
-
-With this High Level CI interface, the interface can be defined with the
-regular ioctls.
-
-All these ioctls are also valid for the High level CI interface
-
-#define CA_RESET _IO('o', 128)
-#define CA_GET_CAP _IOR('o', 129, ca_caps_t)
-#define CA_GET_SLOT_INFO _IOR('o', 130, ca_slot_info_t)
-#define CA_GET_DESCR_INFO _IOR('o', 131, ca_descr_info_t)
-#define CA_GET_MSG _IOR('o', 132, ca_msg_t)
-#define CA_SEND_MSG _IOW('o', 133, ca_msg_t)
-#define CA_SET_DESCR _IOW('o', 134, ca_descr_t)
-#define CA_SET_PID _IOW('o', 135, ca_pid_t)
-
-
-On querying the device, the device yields information thus
-
-CA_GET_SLOT_INFO

-
-
-Not all ioctl's are implemented in the driver from the API, the other
-features of the hardware that cannot be implemented by the API are achieved
-using the CA_GET_MSG and CA_SEND_MSG ioctls. An EN50221 style wrapper is
-used to exchange the data to maintain compatibility with other hardware.

-/* a message to/from a CI-CAM */
-typedef struct ca_msg {
- unsigned int index;
- unsigned int type;
- unsigned int length;
- unsigned char msg[256];
-} ca_msg_t;

-Some very frequently asked questions about linuxtv-dvb
-
-1. The signal seems to die a few seconds after tuning.
-
- It's not a bug, it's a feature. Because the frontends have
- significant power requirements (and hence get very hot), they
- are powered down if they are unused (i.e. if the frontend device
- is closed). The dvb-core.o module parameter "dvb_shutdown_timeout"
- allow you to change the timeout (default 5 seconds). Setting the
- timeout to 0 disables the timeout feature.
-
-2. How can I watch TV?
-
- The driver distribution includes some simple utilities which
- are mainly intended for testing and to demonstrate how the
- DVB API works.
-
- Depending on whether you have a DVB-S, DVB-C or DVB-T card, use
- apps/szap/szap, czap or tzap. You must supply a channel list
- in ~/.[sct]zap/channels.conf. If you are lucky you can just copy
- one of the supplied channel lists, or you can create a new one
- by running apps/scan/scan. If you run scan on an unknown network
- you might have to supply some start data in apps/scan/initial.h.
-
- If you have a card with a built-in hardware MPEG-decoder the
- drivers create a video4linux device (/dev/v4l/video0) which
- you can use to watch TV with any v4l application. xawtv is known
- to work. Note that you cannot change channels with xawtv, you
- have to zap using [sct]zap. If you want a nice application for
- TV watching and record/playback, have a look at VDR.
-
- If your card does not have a hardware MPEG decoder you need
- a software MPEG decoder. Mplayer or xine are known to work.
- Newsflash: MythTV also has DVB support now.
- Note: Only very recent versions of Mplayer and xine can decode.
- MPEG2 transport streams (TS) directly. Then, run
- '[sct]zap channelname -r' in one xterm, and keep it running,
- and start 'mplayer - < /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0' or
- 'xine stdin://mpeg2 < /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0' in a second xterm.
- That's all far from perfect, but it seems no one has written
- a nice DVB application which includes a builtin software MPEG
- decoder yet.
-
- Newsflash: Newest xine directly supports DVB. Just copy your
- channels.conf to ~/.xine and start 'xine dvb://', or select
- the DVB button in the xine GUI. Channel switching works using the
- numpad pgup/pgdown (NP9 / NP3) keys to scroll through the channel osd
- menu and pressing numpad-enter to switch to the selected channel.
-
- Note: Older versions of xine and mplayer understand MPEG program
- streams (PS) only, and can be used in conjunction with the
- ts2ps tool from the Metzler Brother's dvb-mpegtools package.
-
-3. Which other DVB applications exist?
-

- Klaus Schmidinger's Video Disk Recorder
-
- http://www.metzlerbros.org/dvb/
- Metzler Bros. DVB development; alternate drivers and
- DVB utilities, include dvb-mpegtools and tuxzap.
-
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/dvbtools/
- Dave Chapman's dvbtools package, including
- dvbstream and dvbtune
-
- http://www.linuxdvb.tv/
- Henning Holtschneider's site with many interesting
- links and docs
-
- http://www.dbox2.info/
- LinuxDVB on the dBox2
-
- http://www.tuxbox.org/
- http://cvs.tuxbox.org/
- the TuxBox CVS many interesting DVB applications and the dBox2
- DVB source
-
- https://linuxtv.org/downloads
- DVB Swiss Army Knife library and utilities
-
- http://www.nenie.org/misc/mpsys/
- MPSYS: a MPEG2 system library and tools
-
- http://mplayerhq.hu/
- mplayer
-
- http://xine.sourceforge.net/
- http://xinehq.de/
- xine
-
- http://www.mythtv.org/
- MythTV - analog TV PVR, but now with DVB support, too
- (with software MPEG decode)
-
- http://dvbsnoop.sourceforge.net/
- DVB sniffer program to monitor, analyze, debug, dump
- or view dvb/mpeg/dsm-cc/mhp stream information (TS,
- PES, SECTION)
-
-4. Can't get a signal tuned correctly
-
- If you are using a Technotrend/Hauppauge DVB-C card *without* analog
- module, you might have to use module parameter adac=-1 (dvb-ttpci.o).
-
-5. The dvb_net device doesn't give me any packets at all
-
- Run tcpdump on the dvb0_0 interface. This sets the interface
- into promiscuous mode so it accepts any packets from the PID
- you have configured with the dvbnet utility. Check if there
- are any packets with the IP addr and MAC addr you have
- configured with ifconfig.
-
- If tcpdump doesn't give you any output, check the statistics
- which ifconfig outputs. (Note: If the MAC address is wrong,
- dvb_net won't get any input; thus you have to run tcpdump
- before checking the statistics.) If there are no packets at
- all then maybe the PID is wrong. If there are error packets,
- then either the PID is wrong or the stream does not conform to
- the MPE standard (EN 301 192, http://www.etsi.org/). You can
- use e.g. dvbsnoop for debugging.
-
-6. The dvb_net device doesn't give me any multicast packets
-
- Check your routes if they include the multicast address range.
- Additionally make sure that "source validation by reversed path
- lookup" is disabled:
- $ "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/dvb0/rp_filter"
-
-7. What the hell are all those modules that need to be loaded?
-
- For a dvb-ttpci av7110 based full-featured card the following
- modules are loaded:
-
- - videodev: Video4Linux core module. This is the base module that
- gives you access to the "analog" tv picture of the av7110 mpeg2
- decoder.
-
- - v4l2-common: common functions for Video4Linux-2 drivers
-
- - v4l1-compat: backward compatibility layer for Video4Linux-1 legacy
- applications
-
- - dvb-core: DVB core module. This provides you with the
- /dev/dvb/adapter entries
-
- - saa7146: SAA7146 core driver. This is need to access any SAA7146
- based card in your system.
-
- - saa7146_vv: SAA7146 video and vbi functions. These are only needed
- for full-featured cards.
-
- - videobuf-dma-sg: capture helper module for the saa7146_vv driver. This
- one is responsible to handle capture buffers.
-
- - dvb-ttpci: The main driver for AV7110 based, full-featured
- DVB-S/C/T cards

-How to set up the Technisat/B2C2 Flexcop devices
-================================================
-
-1) Find out what device you have
-================================
-
-Important Notice: The driver does NOT support Technisat USB 2 devices!
-
-First start your linux box with a shipped kernel:
-lspci -vvv for a PCI device (lsusb -vvv for an USB device) will show you for example:
-02:0b.0 Network controller: Techsan Electronics Co Ltd B2C2 FlexCopII DVB chip /
- Technisat SkyStar2 DVB card (rev 02)
-
-dmesg | grep frontend may show you for example:
-DVB: registering frontend 0 (Conexant CX24123/CX24109)...
-
-2) Kernel compilation:
-======================
-
-If the Flexcop / Technisat is the only DVB / TV / Radio device in your box
- get rid of unnecessary modules and check this one:
-"Multimedia support" => "Customise analog and hybrid tuner modules to build"
-In this directory uncheck every driver which is activated there
- (except "Simple tuner support" for ATSC 3rd generation only -> see case 9 please).
-
-Then please activate:
-2a) Main module part:
-"Multimedia support" => "DVB/ATSC adapters"
- => "Technisat/B2C2 FlexcopII(b) and FlexCopIII adapters"
-
-a.) => "Technisat/B2C2 Air/Sky/Cable2PC PCI" (PCI card) or
-b.) => "Technisat/B2C2 Air/Sky/Cable2PC USB" (USB 1.1 adapter)
- and for troubleshooting purposes:
-c.) => "Enable debug for the B2C2 FlexCop drivers"
-
-2b) Frontend / Tuner / Demodulator module part:
-"Multimedia support" => "DVB/ATSC adapters"
- => "Customise the frontend modules to build" "Customise DVB frontends" =>
-
-1.) SkyStar DVB-S Revision 2.3:
-a.) => "Zarlink VP310/MT312/ZL10313 based"
-b.) => "Generic I2C PLL based tuners"
-
-2.) SkyStar DVB-S Revision 2.6:
-a.) => "ST STV0299 based"
-b.) => "Generic I2C PLL based tuners"
-
-3.) SkyStar DVB-S Revision 2.7:
-a.) => "Samsung S5H1420 based"
-b.) => "Integrant ITD1000 Zero IF tuner for DVB-S/DSS"
-c.) => "ISL6421 SEC controller"
-
-4.) SkyStar DVB-S Revision 2.8:
-a.) => "Conexant CX24123 based"
-b.) => "Conexant CX24113/CX24128 tuner for DVB-S/DSS"
-c.) => "ISL6421 SEC controller"
-
-5.) AirStar DVB-T card:
-a.) => "Zarlink MT352 based"
-b.) => "Generic I2C PLL based tuners"
-
-6.) CableStar DVB-C card:
-a.) => "ST STV0297 based"
-b.) => "Generic I2C PLL based tuners"
-
-7.) AirStar ATSC card 1st generation:
-a.) => "Broadcom BCM3510"
-
-8.) AirStar ATSC card 2nd generation:
-a.) => "NxtWave Communications NXT2002/NXT2004 based"
-b.) => "Generic I2C PLL based tuners"
-
-9.) AirStar ATSC card 3rd generation:
-a.) => "LG Electronics LGDT3302/LGDT3303 based"
-b.) "Multimedia support" => "Customise analog and hybrid tuner modules to build"
- => "Simple tuner support"

-The DVB subsystem currently registers to the sysfs subsystem using the
-"class_simple" interface.
-
-This means that only the basic information like module loading parameters
-are presented through sysfs. Other things that might be interesting are
-currently *not* available.
-
-Nevertheless it's now possible to add proper udev rules so that the
-DVB device nodes are created automatically.
-
-We assume that you have udev already up and running and that have been
-creating the DVB device nodes manually up to now due to the missing sysfs
-support.
-
-0. Don't forget to disable your current method of creating the
-device nodes manually.
-
-1. Unfortunately, you'll need a helper script to transform the kernel
-sysfs device name into the well known dvb adapter / device naming scheme.
-The script should be called "dvb.sh" and should be placed into a script
-dir where udev can execute it, most likely /etc/udev/scripts/
-
-So, create a new file /etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh and add the following:
-------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
-#!/bin/sh
-/bin/echo $1 | /bin/sed -e 's,dvb\([0-9]\)\.\([^0-9]*\)\([0-9]\),dvb/adapter\1/\2\3,'
-------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
-
-Don't forget to make the script executable with "chmod".
-
-1. You need to create a proper udev rule that will create the device nodes
-like you know them. All real distributions out there scan the /etc/udev/rules.d
-directory for rule files. The main udev configuration file /etc/udev/udev.conf
-will tell you the directory where the rules are, most likely it's /etc/udev/rules.d/
-
-Create a new rule file in that directory called "dvb.rule" and add the following line:
-------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
-KERNEL="dvb*", PROGRAM="/etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh %k", NAME="%c"
-------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
-
-If you want more control over the device nodes (for example a special group membership)
-have a look at "man udev".
-
-For every device that registers to the sysfs subsystem with a "dvb" prefix,
-the helper script /etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh is invoked, which will then
-create the proper device node in your /dev/ directory.
