Hi
I think I've just been really stupid. I tried latest git, but got not
sound. I then checked my volumes again and noticed, that the rear-mic
channel was muted. I didn't have that channel in 3.2 (just had mic) so I
didn't notice...
So may be sound wasn't broken after all in vanilla. Would it be of any
interest if I were to check?
Regards
Benjamin

I then tried applying it manually, which I think worked. But it did not
fix the problem. Given that the patch did not apply cleanly, may be I
should either use the media git tree or wait for 3.10.
You might want to try the media git tree (if only so that we know that it
really fixes your problem). 3.10 will be another 5 months or so before that
is released.

I just realized that this was on a 3.7.10 kernel (not 3.7.0, but that
probably does not make much of a difference)

Hi Hans
Thank you for the prompt response. I will try this once I'm home again.
Which patch is responsible for fixing it? Just so I can track it once it
lands upstream.
There is a whole series of bttv fixes that I did that will appear in 3.10.
But the patch that is probably responsible for fixing it is this one:
http://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git/commit/76ea992a036c4a5d3bc606a79ef775dd32fd3daa
I say 'probably' because I am not 100% certain that that is the main fix.
I'm 99% certain, though :-)
As mentioned, it was part of a much longer patch series, so there may be other
patches involved in this particular problem, but I don't think so.
If you can perhaps test just that single patch then that would be useful
information. If that fixes the problem then that's a candidate for 'stable'
kernels.
I have one more question - the wiki states the the WinTV-HVR-5500 is not
yet supported (as of June 2011) - is there an update on this? It's the
only DVB-C card I can buy in the local stores here
No idea. I do V4L2, not DVB :-) Hopefully someone else knows.
Regards,
Hans
