Hi! I have a Hauppauge DEC-3000s at home, which should, according to the documentation, work under linux, at least for watching tv. Now, as some other people already reported (some months ago) this is actually not true. And I would like to help, finally fixing this. However, all I can provide, is information. With this mail, I give you all information I have at the moment. First of all, initialisation seems to work. Dmesg reports the following: [CODE] usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice ttusb_dec: Firmware 2.31<6>ttusb_dec: found DSP code "DEC2540-t". usbcore: registered new interface driver ttusb-dec usb 1-2: USB disconnect, address 2 usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice DVB: registering new adapter (DEC3000-s). DVB: registering frontend 0 (TechnoTrend/Hauppauge DEC3000-s Frontend)... [/CODE] The necessary files for dvb are there, so I guess the initialisation works, somehow. I prefer using Kaffeine for watching tv, so I tried to scan for channels. The resulting dmesg output: [CODE] ttusbdecfe_read_status: returned unknown value: 0 [/CODE] and that about 15 times or so. To also show, that it is not (only probably) caused by kaffeine, I used a shipped channels.conf from dvb-apps, and szap (20070816) to switch to ProSieben. Szap shows the following: [CODE] reading channels from file '/root/.szap/channels.conf' zapping to 26 'ProSieben': sat 0, frequency = 12480 MHz V, symbolrate 27500000, vpid = 0x00ff, apid = 0x0100 sid = 0x0382 using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' FE_DISEQC_SEND_BURST failed: Operation not supported FE_READ_STATUS failed: Connection timed out status 00 | signal fffe | snr fffe | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe | FE_READ_STATUS failed: Connection timed out status 00 | signal fffe | snr fffe | ber fffffffe | unc fffffffe | FE_READ_STATUS failed: Connection timed out [/CODE] and so forth.

However, I hope that this will bring some light in the current situation of DEC-support under linux. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
