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

As you can see there at the code, the packet size depends on the chipset, as
not all will support 940 for packet size.
Could you please provide us what was the chip detected id?
It should be a message on your dmesg like:
chip ID is em2870
or
em28xx chip ID = 38
The patch should change it only for your specific chipset model, in order to
avoid regressions to other supported chipsets, like:
int em28xx_isoc_dvb_max_packetsize(struct em28xx *dev)
{
unsigned int chip_cfg2;
unsigned int packet_size;
switch (dev->chip_id) {
case CHIP_ID_EM2710:
case CHIP_ID_EM2750:
case CHIP_ID_EM2800:
case CHIP_ID_EM2820:
...
case CHIP_ID_foo:
packet_size = 940;
...
}
return packet_size;
}
The case you're touching seems to be for em2884, but the switch covers both
em2884 and em28174 (plus the default for newer chipsets).
dmesg says: em28xx #0: chip ID is em2884
so a patch would be more like:

Maybe Michael/Devin may have something to say, with regards to a way to detect
the maximum supported packet size by each specific em28xx model.
This would be fine, I tried also 1128 (6 times 188), but then mplayer did not play any more.
I then tried 1034, but then I got the message " submit of urb 0 failed (error=-90)", so I guess
there have to be integer multiples of 188.
The maximum packet size is described at the USB descriptors.
The code at em28xx_set_alternate() seeks for the alternates and selects
the one that will get the best alternate for the analog mode.
There, you'll see a code that gets the best alternate for analog,
and selects the proper packet size for it.
For DVB, it should be a little different, as, on DVB, the driver doesn't
know, in advance, what's the streaming rate. So, the driver needs to get
a high enough packet size to fit for the bandwidth needs.
Also, for DVB, the driver does:
usb_set_interface(dev->udev, 0, 1);
(e. g. it always use alternate 1)
So, in thesis, that function could be as simple as:
dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1];
(if the max packet size for alternate 1 would work for all chips)
Or, eventually, the code might be using other alternates for HD,
but I'm not sure if those chipsets support a different alternate for DVB.
I just tried, replacing
max_dvb_packet_size = em28xx_isoc_dvb_max_packetsize(dev);
by
max_dvb_packet_size = dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1];
but it did not work. Was this the correct replacement?
printk(KERN_INFO "dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1] is
%i\n",dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1]);
then said, dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1] is 0.
I also attachted a lsusb -v output for the Terratec Cinergy HTC Stick.
I don't know, which of these endpoints the dvb-c part is, but it may be
anyway usefull.
Regard,
Dennis
