Hi, I've been trying this for a while, all the time assuming that my old kernel was causing the problems... but I've just upgraded to Fedora 7, giving me a shiney new 2.6.21 kernel and I'm still having problems. My device is the hauppauge nova-T usb stick: Bus 005 Device 002: ID 2040:7060 Hauppauge the stick identifies and loads fine: (dmesg output) dib0700: loaded with support for 2 different device-types dvb-usb: found a 'Hauppauge Nova-T Stick' in warm state. dvb-usb: will pass the complete MPEG2 transport stream to the software demuxer. DVB: registering new adapter (Hauppauge Nova-T Stick). DVB: registering frontend 0 (DiBcom 7000PC)... MT2060: successfully identified (IF1 = 1220) dvb-usb: Hauppauge Nova-T Stick successfully initialized and connected. usbcore: registered new interface driver dvb_usb_dib0700 I can view a single PID at a time using xine, and I can record using mplayer and the -dumpstream option. But when I try and do anything that views the whole TS, for example using DVBStreamer in conjunction with freevo. I still get the famous: mt2060 I2C read failed output in dmesg, and it fails to stream the TS. Looking at the front end status it never seems static, sometimes I get: Signal, Lock, Carrier, VITERBI, Sync, which all looks good. but other times I only get: Signal, Lock, Carrier, Sync or Carrier, VITERBI Maybe xine and mplayer are ignoring the front end status output? I don't really know what this stuff means, not a DVB expert, just hope that this might help with debugging. I would really like to be able to use this stick. Any updates on whats wrong? I am happy to obtain debug info if told what I need to collect. Cheers.
