em28xx_isoc_dvb_max_packetsize for EM2884 (Terratec Cinergy HTC Stick)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have a Terratec Cinergy HTC Stick an tried the new support for the DVB-C part. It works for SD material (at least for free receivable stations, I tried afair only QAM64), but did not for HD stations (QAM256). I have only access to unencrypted ARD HD, ZDF HD and arte HD (via KabelDeutschland). The HD material was just digital artefacts, as far as mplayer could decode it. When I did a dumpstream and looked at the resulting file size I got something about 1MB/s which seems a little too low, because SD was already about 870kB/s. After looking around I found a solution in increasing the isoc_dvb_max_packetsize from 752 to 940 (multiple of 188). Then an HD stream was about 1.4MB/s and looked good. I'm not sure, whether this is the correct fix, but it works for me.

If you need more testing pleas tell.

Regards,
Dennis
