Hi,

I have tested http://linuxtv.org/hg/~anttip/af9015_aver_a850_2.
*It works for me !*

Here is info for Kernel changelog :
*Tested-by: Thomas Renard <threnard@xxxxxxxxx> *

I just have this error message during scan but I don't know the severity :

Thanks for your help !

hello
waiting :) If it works add tested-by to your mail reply
Tested-by: Firsname Lastname <email@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Then I can add that to the Kernel changelog. It is not absolutely needed but it is nice to have some mention who has done job for patch. Also Olivier! If you don't have nothing to send ml where attach this tag then you can send Tested-by directly to me.

regards
Antti

Here are my tests :

I found why kaffeine was not working : I needed to check all offset
checkboxes when scanning.
Like Thomas, I get these messages in /var/log/messages when scanning or changing channel : af9015_pid_filter_ctrl: onoff:0 (with kaffeine, scan or
vlc)

That's normal behaviour. dvb-usb-framework calls .pid_filter_ctrl(0)
callback to ensure pid-filter is disabled. Those logs will not seen normally
when debug-logs are disabled.

I found a weird thing though with kaffeine (that may be a wrong setting
somewhere in kaffeine though, it's the first time I use a DVB device on linux). If I stop kaffeine and restart it I can't access the channels I just
scanned anymore : I get an error message :
Tuning to: NRJ12 / autocount: 0
Using DVB device 0:0 "Afatech AF9013 DVB-T"
tuning DVB-T to 498167000 Hz
inv:2 bw:0 fecH:9 fecL:9 mod:6 tm:2 gi:4 hier:4
.....
Not able to lock to the signal on the given frequency
Frontend closed
Tuning delay: 1062 ms

I need to switch channels several times and eventually it works : I can
now change channels without any problems !
But if I quit and restart kaffeine, I get the same problem again
No problem with VLC.

hmm, no idea. Sometimes I have also seen rather similar problems when
switching channels but restarting Totem solves problem.

I did full band w_scan and it founds all muxes I can receive (4xDVB-T +
1xDVB-H). I haven't tested Kaffeine.

Except that everything seems to work perfectly fine !
I'm not sure exactly what you want me to test though.


GPI01 :

Seems quite similar to previous one. Everything seems fine too (except the
weird kaffeine issue).
In the logs I get the same message : af9015_pid_filter_ctrl: onoff:0



Finally, I tested GPI00 :

Working fine too, seems exactly like previous ones.

I hope I installed these correctly and did not mess up between the
different drivers.
Let me know if something seems weird or if you want me to test something
else.

I'm really glad it finally works ;) Thanks a lot.

For me it seems like tuner is not connected to GPIO pin at all. I will wait someone else, Thomas?, will test. Testing this (af9015_aver_a850_2) tree is
enough if it works:
