[linux-dvb] Patches to fix support for VisionPlus DTV (VP1020) / tuning problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



These patches fix the following bugs:

bttv-i2c.c:
After upgrading from 2.6.9 to 2.6.11.7, bttv failed to write to the ASIC
via the i2c bus. After a couple of times bttv_i2c_wait_done was called
the RACK flag was indicating a failed i2c operation.

dvb-bt8xx.c:
dst_attach returns a pointer. If dst_attach failed to find a frontend
(the ASIC) dvb-bt8xx tried to register a frontend anyway.

dst.c:
dst.c compared the ID returned by the frontend with the NULL pointer of
the last (empty) entry of dst_tlist if it couldn't find the ID in the
list making the the driver crash.
I also added the ID of my card to dst_tlist.

After applying the patches the driver successfully loads but tuning
rarely works right. Xine starts buffering but never finishes. Sometimes
I can see a badly corrupted frame so Xine seems to receive some data
from the transponder. If I repeatedly start mplayer to tune to the same
channel until the card finally tunes right then on the next start xine
always successfully receives this channel.
