[linux-dvb] [Newbie] Video / Audio dropouts with saa7134_dvb / DVB-t

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

 



Hello all,

first of all, I'm a newbie WRT Linux-DVB, so if this is a known problem,
please excuse posting here ...

I have a hybrid Medion SAA7134 and I use DVB-t. The antenna etc. is OK.
Using Power Cinema under MS I receive good results.

Under Linux, also basically all works. However, I can't solve a few  problems:

1) The video signal shows arbitrary colored regions every once in a while (a few
seconds). Sometimes these corrupted regions are in a larger rectangle, sometimes
organized in a line, sometimes sprinkled over the whole image, there is no rule.

2) The audio is disturbed by dropouts and squeak, also every few seconds.

Aside from these problems, video and audio are perfect. The corruption appears also
when using tzap to record a TS directly to a file, so I assume it is not a
display / playback problem. Also, after such disturbances, the stream is good again, it
is not ripped off. It i

I have played with renicing dvb[0] or the tzap, but to no avail. The recording
program and the dvb process just use 10% of CPU time at most. I have no further
ideas and I really would appreciate recording under Linux.

Below is an excerpt from dmesg-output:

I'm using firmware the latest firmaware dvb-ttpci-01.fw-261f.
I would appreciate any help on this.

Thanks and best regards,
