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

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

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

Regards, Gunther

Hi,

Following the recent threads about the new Freecom DVB-T with usb
vid:pid of 14aa:022a, I checked out the latest mercurial sources for
v4l-dvb and built and installed the driver.

Device initialisation goes something like:

usb 1-8: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 5
usb 1-8: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
dvb-usb: found a 'WideView WT-220U PenType Receiver (based on ZL353)' in cold state, will try to load a firmware
dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-wt220u-zl0353-01.fw'
usbcore: registered new driver dvb_usb_dtt200u
usb 1-8: USB disconnect, address 5
dvb-usb: generic DVB-USB module successfully deinitialized and disconnected.
usb 1-8: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 6
usb 1-8: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
dvb-usb: found a 'WideView WT-220U PenType Receiver (based on ZL353)' in warm state.
dvb-usb: will use the device's hardware PID filter (table count: 15).
DVB: registering new adapter (WideView WT-220U PenType Receiver (based on ZL353)).
DVB: registering frontend 0 (WideView USB DVB-T)...
input: IR-receiver inside an USB DVB receiver as /class/input/input3
dvb-usb: schedule remote query interval to 300 msecs.
dvb-usb: WideView WT-220U PenType Receiver (based on ZL353) successfully initialized and connected.
dvb-usb: recv bulk message failed: -110

However, any attempt to tune the device is totally futile:

$ dvbscan -v /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/uk-EmleyMoor

using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0'

Done.

The (orange whilst idle) LED *should* blink green when tuning, but it
doesn't blink at all. I did happen to get it to tune once on Sunday
afternoon, but it's not managed to repeat it since. Even with the
channels.conf I had generated from then, tzap just returns:

status 00 | signal ffff | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 20 | signal ffff | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 20 | signal ffff | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
status 20 | signal ffff | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 |
[ad infinitum]

Does anyone have any suggestions?

For reference, the hardware is an Athlon 64 (using Linux x86_64, not i386)
with a VIA K8T890-southbridge USB chipset. The device is plugged
straight into the onboard USB, not through a hub.

I can if needed try the stick on an 32-bit system with ICH5-integrated
USB controller.

thanks,
rob
