Re: How do I get the USB part/device of the DViCO DVB-T HDTV Dual digital card to work?

I'd be interested to know if you got the remote working out of the box? I had a hell of a problem getting my USB to work and it turned out I just didn't have enough power being supplied through my USB ports. A powered USB hub fixed this up and now the only problem i'm having is I cant get the remote working.

I'm not expert with dvb cards, but I have this card, and have it
working, with Fedora.

Prior to the current kernel version (2.6.16-1), I had to patch the dvb
drivers as laid out in the instructions here:
http://www.linuxtv.org/cvs.php.

However, with the current kernel, I beleive the dvb drivers have
support for this card. (I didnt have to re-patch the dvb like I did in
the past). You may still have to follow the instructions stated
previously to do with thet dvb firmware for the usb bit (the bit with
"get_dvb_firmware bluebird"). I'll copy that segment of the
instructions I wrote for myself (these work in Fedora 4):
8) Change to the "/sbin/v4l-dvb/linux/Documentation/dvb" directory.
9) Make the get_dvb_firmware script executable: "chmod +x get_dvb_firmware"
10) Run the script with the command "./get_dvb_firmware bluebird"
11) Copy the resulting file to the /lib/firmware directory, using the
command "cp dvb-usb-bluebird-01.fw /lib/firmware/"

Hi,
can you send me a picture of your device and further info for inclusion
to my
http://www.bttv-gallery.de ?

Sure, I have a 5megapixel camera so the photos shouldn't be a problem. The
only thing is opening the metal cases. I've only had the card for about 5
days, and would like to keep the waranty for a little longer :P. I'll photo
everything I can though.

I'll post later, as I'm going to bed now.

Thanks for all the replys, James
1st priority:
- picture of the device, the device top/ bottom/ backside (high
resolution pics if feasible)
- lsusb
- lsusb -v  (cold and warm)

further information:
- if feasible picture of device inside:  pcb upper side and back side
(open at your own risk)
- picture of  the package
- if feasible "*.INF" files from the Windows Driver CD

Regards, Gunther

Hello,

I recently joined this mailing list so I could hopefully find an answer to
my question:

How do I get the USB part/device of the DViCO HTDV DVB-T Dual digital to
work?

I have looked through the archives, but I have only found people who have
had *problems* setting their cards. I'm extremely new to DVB-T in linux,
and have successfully got the PCI part of my DViCO to work, (Worked out
of the box with 2.6.16 + Fedora, and Gentoo worked with a CVS snapshot of
v4l), however I cannot find any instructions on how to get the USB
section to work. I know that support exists, according to
http://www.itee.uq.edu.au/~chrisp/Linux-DVB/DVICO/ there has been support
>from 2006/01/09 (date of the post).
Please could someone tell me what I need to do to get the USB half of my
DViCO Dual digital to work. IE, what kernel modules I need to load, any
any patching I need to do.

I'm sorry if this information is already in the archives, just I've looked
for ages and could not find any.

Thanks in advance, James
