Hi, I've just got a Pinnacle 300i, and I'm having some trouble with it.... I first tried 2.6.14.1, and then the nightly snapshot from yesterday. Tuning failed. Having read the recent posting to this list, I've tried the 2.6.12 kernel - this sort of works for a while - viewing with mplayer, output works OK for < 10 seconds, then output stutters, and stops. Playing audio only streams, the I tried building the 20050627 snapshot against this kernel - with this kernel I get output with a lot of corruption (random blocky garbage all over the image), and very chopped up, high pitch audio. When trying to play audio-only streams, mplayer hangs up. Unfortunately, I don't have a PC running Windows XP to check performance of the hardware under Windows (software is XP only, the driver seems to install under 2000, but the application won't - if there are any applications that I can install under 2000 to try and verify operation under XP, I'd be glad to hear about them). I'm guessing from the messages below (companycode=0000) that i2c I/O is not reliable on this card with the newer code, any tips as to where to start looking would be greatfully recieved? Is the fact that one is reporting "tuner 5-0060", and the other is "tuner 6-0060" significant? Is it reading the wrong i2c bus, or something? Cheers, Tim.
