Hello. According to the manufacturer, the lifeview trio should be able to capture both analog and digital concurrently. But, if I open (with mplayer, for example) a dvb-t channel and an analog one at the same time, they tune correctly and display video, but with very poor quality. Analog is very disturbed, digital stutters, you get the idea. While garbled, both channel seem to receive the correct video stream; it's somewhat like multiplexing between the two channel half a second a time. CPU usage is still around 65%, so there should be enough power to handle both streams. I'm using a fairly recent kernel (mandriva 2.6.17-3). Suggestions ?
There is a limitation in the saa713x pci bridges: They are not able to handle more than 4 simultanous DMA streams. This has the impact that if you have DVB active, you are not able to use the so-called planar video formats, but all others work. I don't use mplayer frequently, but as far as i remember, mplayer uses a planar format by default. Can anybody jump in? As far as i know, mplayer allows to select the format.
