OK, I've replaced the 64 bit integer by two 32 bit ints: # Firmware 77, type: SCODE FW MONO HAS IF (0x60008000), IF = 6.68 MHz id: PAL/DK A2 (00000003000000e0), size: 192 # write_le32(0x60008000); # Type write_le64(0x00000003, 0x000000e0); # ID write_le16(6680); # IF write_le32(192); # Size write_hunk(810936, 192); This should work fine also on 32 bit machines. Tested here. Cheers, Mauro _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
