Re: How to get a PCTV Sat HDTC Pro USB (452e) running?

Well that worked! I was able to compile the drivers. :)

And the bad news. I wasn't able to compile dvb-apps. Or to be more specific I followed the instructions for patching dvb-apps to work with multiproto. (
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-April/025222.html)

As I understand the instructions I copied the source code of scan to the dvb-apps/util/scan directory and applied the patch on it. After a little extra change for the includes (changed them to point to the ones of multiproto). I was able to compile the hole stuff without errors. However scan always gives me an DVBFE_SET_PARAMS ioctl fail with "Invalid argument".
After some time I give up on and tried to patch szap. Well szap seems to be a wrong version since even used structures in the source code has different names than the ones in the patch file. I got dvb-apps with hg from linuxtv.org.

I'm really down now my hope to get this damn thing running before the first EM match is now not present. Good by HDTV quality games hello PAL...

*schniff*

Hi Michael!

I was having the same problem too, this is what i did.
All i need is pctv 452e drivers and don't care for the rest.
you can do this in couples of ways.. first you can run "make menuconfig"
and unselect whatever drivers thats troubling you.
I did that but after cx25840-core there is another one after that another
drivers.... then i did  the ugly way works 100%

cd to multiproto/linux/drivers/media/video
and rename the Makefile to like Makefile_
after this i won't compile any analog drivers and it will compile dvb
and radio drivers.
if you don't what radio too do the same thing to radio dir.

Well fine thanks,

That does not look like an simple changed function/code error.

Hi Michael!

Because of the several patches needed to add support for the
pctv_452e/tt_s2_3600/tt_s2_3650_ci I made a new diff on todays hg tree
with all the patches applied (I think all the patches were posted by
Dominik Kuhlen??).
I will try to update the wiki in the next days.

Couldn't these patches be inserted into hg-tree (Manu??). The device
works with them (i am using it a few months now).

I applied ONE patch wich includes all the patches listed here:
patch_multiproto_pctv452e_tts23600.diff
patch_multiproto_dvbs2_frequency.diff
patch_fix_tts2_keymap.diff
patch_add_tt_s2_3650_ci.diff
patch_add_tt_s2_3600_rc_keymap.diff



-----snip----
I had just a brief look at the patch and it seems that pctv452e.c and
lnb22.* are missing
afaik hg diff  does not include added files if not specified explicitly.
