VLC does not send any ioctl to /dev/video0 (my HVR 1300). I do it myself. Let me copy/paste my code, maybe I'm missing something (which would make VLC go crazy after 30 minutes ... !?!) /* open devices */ fd1 = open("/dev/video0", 0_RDWR); fd2 = open("/dev/video1", 0_RDWR); /* prepare input/format */ int i = 1; int j = V4L2_STD_SECAM; ioctl(fd1, VIDIOC_S_INPUT, &i); ioctl(fd1, VIDIOC_S_STD, &j); struct v4l2_ext_controls mc; struct v4l2_ext_control ctrls[32]; /* mpeg settings */ mc.ctrl_class = V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG; mc.controls = ctrls; i = 0; mc.ctrl_class = V4L2_CTRL_CLASS_MPEG; ctrls[i].id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_BITRATE_MODE; ctrls[i++].value = V4L2_MPEG_VIDEO_BITRATE_MODE_CBR; ctrls[i].id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_AUDIO_ENCODING; ctrls[i++].value = V4L2_MPEG_AUDIO_ENCODING_LAYER_2; ctrls[i].id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_AUDIO_L2_BITRATE; ctrls[i++].value = V4L2_MPEG_AUDIO_L2_BITRATE_256K; ctrls[i].id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_BITRATE; ctrls[i++].value = 4096 * 1000; ctrls[i].id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_BITRATE_PEAK; ctrls[i++].value = 4096 * 1000; ctrls[i].id = V4L2_CID_MPEG_VIDEO_ASPECT; ctrls[i++].value = V4L2_MPEG_VIDEO_ASPECT_4x3; mc.count = i; ioctl(fd2, VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS, &mc); of course I tried to remove different mpeg settings, but ... it's not chaning anything I tried old v4l-dvb snaphots, v4l included within kernel 2.6.22.19 but with no success ... 2.6.25.4 v4l drivers do not provide any MPEG PS at all, that is a read on /dev/video1 timeouts status is it's working for around 30 minutes then VLC prints error messages, sound / image become ugly and the only solution is to stop / restart the read of the MPEG PS ... anyone having the same behavior when reading PS with VLC for more than thirty minutes ? -- CAND Frederic Product Manager ANEVIA _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
