Problem getting Compro DVB-T300 to work

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello everyone
I am having some trouble getting a dvb card working in linux and am posting here as a last resort to try and get it working :-)

The card is a Compro VideoMate DVB-T300


lspci -v

02:06.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7134/SAA7135HL Video Broadcast Decoder (rev 01)
      Subsystem: Compro Technology, Inc. Videomate DVB-T300
      Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 18
      Memory at fddff000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1K]
      Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 1



These are the relevent lines from dmesg

saa7134[0]: found at 0000:02:06.0, rev: 1, irq: 18, latency: 32, mmio: 0xfddff000 saa7134[0]: subsystem: 185b:c900, board: Compro Videomate DVB-T300 [card=70,autodetected]

saa7134[0]: frontend initialization failed


the last line about the frontend initialization happens when saa7134_dvb is loaded

I have tried different kernels, currently i am using 2.6.20 x86_64
The distro i am using is debian etch rc1
I am using the driviers from the mercurial repositry at http://linuxtv.org/hg/~hhackmann/v4l-dvb last time i updated them was today


I tried loading tvtime, and got no signal, but the following message appeared in the kernel log

tuner 2-0068: tuner type not set

The message repeats whenever i try to change channels
If i try switching to the composite input in tvtime, the card works perfectly and i get the picture

The tv antenna cable works fine when i plug it into the tv so its not that either

Is there anything else i can try to get this card working ?

Thanks in advance :-)

-Micah
