Hi,
I've got a Pinnacle 300i, which I can't get working. I was on
ubuntu breezy
stock (2.6.12-10-k7) kernel, which didn't work, so I tried
applying patches
i found on the mailing list, to no avail.
Last night I compiled latest 2.6.12-ck9, which behaved identically
to the
old kernel (with regard to the pinnacle). I've just tried the
patch from
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2006-May/010152.html
there, but that makes no difference either. So I'm currently
running latest
hg pull, with that patch, and i get these messages in dmesg
(these have been the same regardless of what kernel/patch i've been
running):
[snip]
Any ideas what's going on here?
(The card works in Windows, so I don't think its a DOA)
Hmm, strange - the card was reported as working with that latest
patch. Has it
ever worked in linux? (I saw you tested it in windows so at least
the
hardware is ok)
Nope, never worked. Always that same error, too. Makes me wonder if
there's something unique about my box. No idea what though...
Can you send details of an example channel you're trying to tune
under linux?
Perhaps the demod requires tweaking...
Ok, I think is what you mean (but I'm not sure)...
gm@kimiko:~$ tzap -c channels.conf 'BBC ONE'
using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'
tuning to 722166670 Hz
video pid 0x0258, audio pid 0x0259
status 00 | signal ffff | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |

...(every further line identical).
This is accompanied by a whole load of mt352_pinnacle_init called
messages in the logs.
The frequency is right (pulled out of a channel.conf from a working
machine).
Greg.
