Hello, I'm testing a STV40 usb card, and I've some problems that disables me from capturing audio+video. I'm on linux 3.7.1. 1) Capturing the video with ffmpeg mutes the audio. Simply doing. $ ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video1 out.flv Previous to running ffmpeg, I've arecord with "-V mono", and the vumeter goes to 0% once running that ffmpeg line. 2) The card does not advertise audio controls (like mute), through "v4l2-ctl --list-ctrls" 3) The card muting and unmuting works fine using V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE But "v4l2-ctl -c mute=0" can't be used because 'mute' isn't advertised. Once the card is muted, any call to arecord records all samples zero. I mention that, because snd_em28xx_capture_open() looks like meant to unmute. 4) If something captures the sound (muted), and still capturing, I unmute using V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE, the samples arrive broken. I don't know how to describe the noisy effect: http://viric.name/~viric/tmp/noise.wav (only one channel was connected, of the stereo input) Due to 1) and 4), trying to capture audio+video with ffmpeg results in no-sound (muted), but if enabling it with a program apart while capturing using V4L2_CID_AUDIO_MUTE, the sound recorded by ffmpeg is crippled. Of course, I've no idea why the audio goes muted at video capture start. As a final note apart, the implementation of vidioc_g_audio fills a->name based on the incoming structure, instead of the later initialized a->index. I think it's wrong. That's what makes "v4l2-ctl --get-audio-input" report "1 (Television)", while it should show "1 (Line In)". Additionally, "v4l2-ctl --list-audio-inputs" doesn't show any input either. As a note, here is the kernel information about the card I have: [45161.345491] em28xx: New device USB 2861 Device (SVEON STV40) @ 480 Mbps (1b80:e309, interface 0, class 0) [45161.345500] em28xx: Video interface 0 found [45161.345504] em28xx: DVB interface 0 found [45161.345592] em28xx #0: chip ID is em2860 [45161.456962] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 00: 1a eb 67 95 80 1b 09 e3 50 00 20 03 6a 3c 00 00 [45161.456988] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 10: 00 00 04 57 06 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457029] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 20: 02 00 01 00 f0 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 5b 00 00 00 [45161.457049] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 30: 00 00 20 40 20 80 02 20 01 01 02 01 00 00 00 00 [45161.457068] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 40: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457086] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 50: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457105] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 60: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 3c 03 55 00 53 00 [45161.457154] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 70: 42 00 20 00 32 00 38 00 36 00 31 00 20 00 44 00 [45161.457173] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 80: 65 00 76 00 69 00 63 00 65 00 20 00 28 00 53 00 [45161.457192] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom 90: 56 00 45 00 4f 00 4e 00 20 00 53 00 54 00 56 00 [45161.457210] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom a0: 34 00 30 00 29 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457229] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom b0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457247] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom c0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457265] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom d0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457283] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom e0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457302] em28xx #0: i2c eeprom f0: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 [45161.457327] em28xx #0: EEPROM ID= 0x9567eb1a, EEPROM hash = 0xa3963040 [45161.457332] em28xx #0: EEPROM info: [45161.457335] em28xx #0: AC97 audio (5 sample rates) [45161.457338] em28xx #0: 500mA max power [45161.457343] em28xx #0: Table at 0x04, strings=0x3c6a, 0x0000, 0x0000 [45161.457350] em28xx #0: Identified as Easy Cap Capture DC-60 (card=64) [45161.661731] saa7115 9-0025: saa7113 found (1f7113d0e100000) @ 0x4a (em28xx #0) [45162.049366] em28xx #0: Config register raw data: 0x50 [45162.061248] em28xx #0: AC97 vendor ID = 0x83847650 [45162.067100] em28xx #0: AC97 features = 0x6a90 [45162.067110] em28xx #0: Empia 202 AC97 audio processor detected [45162.301273] em28xx #0: v4l2 driver version 0.1.3 [45162.822556] em28xx #0: V4L2 video device registered as video1 [45162.822565] em28xx #0: V4L2 VBI device registered as vbi0 Regards, Lluís. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
