Re: Possible EIT corruption using lastest patch for Nova-T 500 (from " dib7000p tuning problem solved")

["Eduard Huguet" <eduardhc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Definitely it's not related to the patch. I'm seeing again the error appearing on my log after less than 1h running. The patch was not applied this time, so it's probably related a receiving issue on one of the channels.

Sorry for disturbing. I'm going to reapply the patch to provide feedback for it.

Mmmh, disregard for now this report. I've just discovered that the errors were in the log since some days ago, so possibly they have no relationship with this patch.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Anyway, I'm going to let it some hours running and scanning with and without the patch to see if there is any problem with this patch and EIT.

Best regards,

Hi,
    I've just applied the patch and compiled the drivers. I haven't tested actual tuning, since I'm not in front of my computer now, but this is awaken and idle so MythTV is  currently simply scanning EIT data. So well, the following messages has started appearing on my mythbackend.log:

The error about "offset>181 etc..." is usually due to the card receiving corrupt data, and usually causes MySQL table corruption that must be fixed using "myisamchk". I'm pretty sure this wasn't appearing these past days, and today we are in a very good weather condition so I don't think it's related a bad signal reception.

I'm going to unapply the patch and test again after repairing the database.

Best regards,
  Eduard
