Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

1. How to use?
NOTE: This driver was developed using Linux 2.6.6.,
it is working with 2.6.7 and above.
Linux 2.4.x support is not planned, but patches are very welcome.
NOTE: I'm using Debian testing, so the following explaination (especially
the hotplug-path) needn't match your system, but probably it will :).
The driver is included in the kernel since Linux 2.6.10.
1.1. Firmware
The USB driver needs to download a firmware to start working.
You can either use "get_dvb_firmware dibusb" to download the firmware or you
can get it directly via
for USB1.1 (AN2135)
http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-dibusb-5.0.0.11.fw
for USB1.1 (AN2235) (a few Artec T1 devices)
http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-dibusb-an2235-1.fw
for USB2.0 (FX2) Hauppauge, DiBcom
http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-dibusb-6.0.0.5.fw
for USB2.0 ADSTech/Kworld USB2.0
http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-dibusb-adstech-usb2-1.fw
for USB2.0 HanfTek
http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/dvb-dibusb-an2235-1.fw
1.2. Compiling
Since the driver is in the linux kernel, activating the driver in
your favorite config-environment should sufficient. I recommend
to compile the driver as module. Hotplug does the rest.
1.3. Loading the drivers
Hotplug is able to load the driver, when it is needed (because you plugged
in the device).
If you want to enable debug output, you have to load the driver manually and
from withing the dvb-kernel cvs repository.
first have a look, which debug level are available:
modinfo dib3000mb
modinfo dib3000-common
modinfo dib3000mc
modinfo dvb-dibusb
modprobe dib3000-common debug=<level>
modprobe dib3000mb debug=<level>
modprobe dib3000mc debug=<level>
modprobe dvb-dibusb debug=<level>
should do the trick.
When the driver is loaded successfully, the firmware file was in
the right place and the device is connected, the "Power"-LED should be
turned on.
At this point you should be able to start a dvb-capable application. For myself
I used mplayer, dvbscan, tzap and kaxtv, they are working. Using the device
in vdr is working now also.
2. Known problems and bugs
- Don't remove the USB device while running an DVB application, your system will die.
2.1. Adding support for devices
It is not possible to determine the range of devices based on the DiBcom
reference designs. This is because the reference design of DiBcom can be sold
to thirds, without telling DiBcom (so done with the Twinhan VP7041 and
the HAMA device).
When you think you have a device like this and the driver does not recognizes it,
please send the ****load*.inf and the ****cap*.inf of the Windows driver to me.
Sometimes the Vendor or Product ID is identical to the ones of Twinhan, even
though it is not a Twinhan device (e.g. HAMA), then please send me the name
of the device. I will add it to this list in order to make this clear to
others.
If you are familar with C you can also add the VID and PID of the device to
the dvb-dibusb-core.c-file and create a patch and send it over to me or to
the linux-dvb mailing list, _after_ you have tried compiling and modprobing
it.
2.2. USB1.1 Bandwidth limitation
Most of the currently supported devices are USB1.1 and thus they have a
maximum bandwidth of about 5-6 MBit/s when connected to a USB2.0 hub.
This is not enough for receiving the complete transport stream of a
DVB-T channel (which can be about 16 MBit/s). Normally this is not a
problem, if you only want to watch TV (this does not apply for HDTV),
but watching a channel while recording another channel on the same
frequency simply does not work very well. This applies to all USB1.1
DVB-T devices, not just dibusb)
Update: For the USB1.1 and VDR some work has been done (patches and comments
are still very welcome). Maybe the problem is solved in the meantime because I
now use the dmx_sw_filter function instead of dmx_sw_filter_packet. I hope the
linux-dvb software filter is able to get the best of the garbled TS.
The bug, where the TS is distorted by a heavy usage of the device is gone
definitely. All dibusb-devices I was using (Twinhan, Kworld, DiBcom) are
working like charm now with VDR. Sometimes I even was able to record a channel
and watch another one.
2.3. Comments
Patches, comments and suggestions are very very welcome.

HOWTO: Get An Avermedia DVB-T working under Linux
______________________________________________

Assumptions and Introduction
The Avermedia DVB-T
Getting the card going
Receiving DVB-T in Australia
Known Limitations
Further Update
Assumptions and Introduction
It is assumed that the reader understands the basic structure
of the Linux Kernel DVB drivers and the general principles of
Digital TV.
One significant difference between Digital TV and Analogue TV
that the unwary (like myself) should consider is that,
although the component structure of budget DVB-T cards are
substantially similar to Analogue TV cards, they function in
substantially different ways.
The purpose of an Analogue TV is to receive and display an
Analogue Television signal. An Analogue TV signal (otherwise
known as composite video) is an analogue encoding of a
sequence of image frames (25 per second) rasterised using an
interlacing technique. Interlacing takes two fields to
represent one frame. Computers today are at their best when
dealing with digital signals, not analogue signals and a
composite video signal is about as far removed from a digital
data stream as you can get. Therefore, an Analogue TV card for
a PC has the following purpose:
* Tune the receiver to receive a broadcast signal
* demodulate the broadcast signal
* demultiplex the analogue video signal and analogue audio
signal (note some countries employ a digital audio signal
embedded within the modulated composite analogue signal -
NICAM.)
* digitize the analogue video signal and make the resulting
datastream available to the data bus.
The digital datastream from an Analogue TV card is generated
by circuitry on the card and is often presented uncompressed.
For a PAL TV signal encoded at a resolution of 768x576 24-bit
color pixels over 25 frames per second - a fair amount of data
is generated and must be proceesed by the PC before it can be
displayed on the video monitor screen. Some Analogue TV cards
for PC's have onboard MPEG2 encoders which permit the raw
digital data stream to be presented to the PC in an encoded
and compressed form - similar to the form that is used in
Digital TV.
The purpose of a simple budget digital TV card (DVB-T,C or S)
is to simply:
* Tune the received to receive a broadcast signal.
* Extract the encoded digital datastream from the broadcast
signal.
* Make the encoded digital datastream (MPEG2) available to
the data bus.
The significant difference between the two is that the tuner
on the analogue TV card spits out an Analogue signal, whereas
the tuner on the digital TV card spits out a compressed
encoded digital datastream. As the signal is already
digitised, it is trivial to pass this datastream to the PC
databus with minimal additional processing and then extract
the digital video and audio datastreams passing them to the
appropriate software or hardware for decoding and viewing.
_________________________________________________________
The Avermedia DVB-T
The Avermedia DVB-T is a budget PCI DVB card. It has 3 inputs:
* RF Tuner Input
* Composite Video Input (RCA Jack)
* SVIDEO Input (Mini-DIN)
The RF Tuner Input is the input to the tuner module of the
card. The Tuner is otherwise known as the "Frontend" . The
Frontend of the Avermedia DVB-T is a Microtune 7202D. A timely
post to the linux-dvb mailing list ascertained that the
Microtune 7202D is supported by the sp887x driver which is
found in the dvb-hw CVS module.
The DVB-T card is based around the BT878 chip which is a very
common multimedia bridge and often found on Analogue TV cards.
There is no on-board MPEG2 decoder, which means that all MPEG2
decoding must be done in software, or if you have one, on an
MPEG2 hardware decoding card or chipset.
_________________________________________________________
Getting the card going
In order to fire up the card, it is necessary to load a number
of modules from the DVB driver set. Prior to this it will have
been necessary to download these drivers from the linuxtv CVS
server and compile them successfully.
Depending on the card's feature set, the Device Driver API for
DVB under Linux will expose some of the following device files
in the /dev tree:
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/audio0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/ca0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/osd0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/video0
The primary device nodes that we are interested in (at this
stage) for the Avermedia DVB-T are:
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0
* /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0
The dvr0 device node is used to read the MPEG2 Data Stream and
the frontend0 node is used to tune the frontend tuner module.
At this stage, it has not been able to ascertain the
functionality of the remaining device nodes in respect of the
Avermedia DVBT. However, full functionality in respect of
tuning, receiving and supplying the MPEG2 data stream is
possible with the currently available versions of the driver.
It may be possible that additional functionality is available
from the card (i.e. viewing the additional analogue inputs
that the card presents), but this has not been tested yet. If
I get around to this, I'll update the document with whatever I
find.
To power up the card, load the following modules in the
following order:
* insmod dvb-core.o
* modprobe bttv.o
* insmod bt878.o
* insmod dvb-bt8xx.o
* insmod sp887x.o
Insertion of these modules into the running kernel will
activate the appropriate DVB device nodes. It is then possible
to start accessing the card with utilities such as scan, tzap,
dvbstream etc.
The frontend module sp887x.o, requires an external firmware.
Please use the command "get_dvb_firmware sp887x" to download
it. Then copy it to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware.
Receiving DVB-T in Australia
I have no experience of DVB-T in other countries other than
Australia, so I will attempt to explain how it works here in
Melbourne and how this affects the configuration of the DVB-T
card.
The Digital Broadcasting Australia website has a Reception
locatortool which provides information on transponder channels
and frequencies. My local transmitter happens to be Mount
Dandenong.
The frequencies broadcast by Mount Dandenong are:
Table 1. Transponder Frequencies Mount Dandenong, Vic, Aus.
Broadcaster Channel Frequency
ABC VHF 12 226.5 MHz
TEN VHF 11 219.5 MHz
NINE VHF 8 191.625 MHz
SEVEN VHF 6 177.5 MHz
SBS UHF 29 536.5 MHz
The Scan utility has a set of compiled-in defaults for various
countries and regions, but if they do not suit, or if you have
a pre-compiled scan binary, you can specify a data file on the
command line which contains the transponder frequencies. Here
is a sample file for the above channel transponders:
# Data file for DVB scan program
#
# C Frequency SymbolRate FEC QAM
# S Frequency Polarisation SymbolRate FEC
# T Frequency Bandwidth FEC FEC2 QAM Mode Guard Hier
T 226500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
T 191625000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
T 219500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
T 177500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
T 536500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
The defaults for the transponder frequency and other
modulation parameters were obtained from www.dba.org.au.
When Scan runs, it will output channels.conf information for
any channel's transponders which the card's frontend can lock
onto. (i.e. any whose signal is strong enough at your
antenna).
Here's my channels.conf file for anyone who's interested:

_________________________________________________________
Known Limitations
At present I can say with confidence that the frontend tunes
via /dev/dvb/adapter{x}/frontend0 and supplies an MPEG2 stream
via /dev/dvb/adapter{x}/dvr0. I have not tested the
functionality of any other part of the card yet. I will do so
over time and update this document.
There are some limitations in the i2c layer due to a returned
error message inconsistency. Although this generates errors in
dmesg and the system logs, it does not appear to affect the
ability of the frontend to function correctly.
_________________________________________________________
Further Update
dvbstream and VideoLAN Client on windows works a treat with
DVB, in fact this is currently serving as my main way of
viewing DVB-T at the moment. Additionally, VLC is happily
decoding HDTV signals, although the PC is dropping the odd
frame here and there - I assume due to processing capability -
as all the decoding is being done under windows in software.
Many thanks to Nigel Pearson for the updates to this document
since the recent revision of the driver.

How to get the Nebula, PCTV and Twinhan DST cards working
=========================================================
This class of cards has a bt878a as the PCI interface, and
require the bttv driver.
Please pay close attention to the warning about the bttv module
options below for the DST card.
1) General informations
=======================
These drivers require the bttv driver to provide the means to access
the i2c bus and the gpio pins of the bt8xx chipset.
Because of this, you need to enable
"Device drivers" => "Multimedia devices"
=> "Video For Linux" => "BT848 Video For Linux"
2) Loading Modules
==================
In general you need to load the bttv driver, which will handle the gpio and
i2c communication for us. Next you need the common dvb-bt8xx device driver
and one frontend driver.
The bttv driver will HANG YOUR SYSTEM IF YOU DO NOT SPECIFY THE CORRECT
CARD ID!
(If you don't get your card running and you suspect that the card id you're
using is wrong, have a look at "bttv-cards.c" for a list of possible card
ids.)
Pay attention to failures when you load the frontend drivers
(e.g. dmesg, /var/log/messages).
3a) Nebula / Pinnacle PCTV
--------------------------
$ modprobe bttv i2c_hw=1 card=0x68
$ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
For Nebula cards use the "nxt6000" frontend driver:
$ modprobe nxt6000
For Pinnacle PCTV cards use the "cx24110" frontend driver:
$ modprobe cx24110
3b) TwinHan
-----------
$ modprobe bttv i2c_hw=1 card=0x71
$ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
$ modprobe dst
The value 0x71 will override the PCI type detection for dvb-bt8xx, which
is necessary for TwinHan cards.#
If you're having an older card (blue color circuit) and card=0x71 locks your
machine, try using 0x68, too. If that does not work, ask on the DVB mailing list.
The DST module takes a couple of useful parameters, in case the
dst drivers fails to detect your type of card correctly.
dst_type takes values 0 (satellite), 1 (terrestial TV), 2 (cable).
dst_type_flags takes bit combined values:
1 = new tuner type packets. You can use this if your card is detected
and you have debug and you continually see the tuner packets not
working (make sure not a basic problem like dish alignment etc.)
2 = TS 204. If your card tunes OK, but the picture is terrible, seemingly
breaking up in one half continually, and crc fails a lot, then
this is worth a try (or trying to turn off)
4 = has symdiv. Some cards, mostly without new tuner packets, require
a symbol division algorithm. Doesn't apply to terrestial TV.
You can also specify a value to have the autodetected values turned off
(e.g. 0). The autodected values are determined bythe cards 'response
string' which you can see in your logs e.g.
dst_check_ci: recognize DST-MOT
or
dst_check_ci: unable to recognize DSTXCI or STXCI

Hardware supported by the linuxtv.org DVB drivers
=================================================
Generally, the DVB hardware manufacturers frequently change the
frontends (i.e. tuner / demodulator units) used, usually without
changing the product name, revision number or specs. Some cards
are also available in versions with different frontends for
DVB-S/DVB-C/DVB-T. Thus the frontend drivers are listed seperately.
Note 1: There is no guarantee that every frontend driver works
out of the box with every card, because of different wiring.
Note 2: The demodulator chips can be used with a variety of
tuner/PLL chips, and not all combinations are supported. Often
the demodulator and tuner/PLL chip are inside a metal box for
shielding, and the whole metal box has its own part number.

Some very frequently asked questions about linuxtv-dvb
1. The signal seems to die a few seconds after tuning.
It's not a bug, it's a feature. Because the frontends have
significant power requirements (and hence get very hot), they
are powered down if they are unused (i.e. if the frontend device
is closed). The dvb-core.o module paramter "dvb_shutdown_timeout"
allow you to change the timeout (default 5 seconds). Setting the
timeout to 0 disables the timeout feature.
2. How can I watch TV?
The driver distribution includes some simple utilities which
are mainly intended for testing and to demonstrate how the
DVB API works.
Depending on whether you have a DVB-S, DVB-C or DVB-T card, use
apps/szap/szap, czap or tzap. You must supply a channel list
in ~/.[sct]zap/channels.conf. If you are lucky you can just copy
one of the supplied channel lists, or you can create a new one
by running apps/scan/scan. If you run scan on an unknown network
you might have to supply some start data in apps/scan/initial.h.
If you have a card with a built-in hardware MPEG-decoder the
drivers create a video4linux device (/dev/v4l/video0) which
you can use to watch TV with any v4l application. xawtv is known
to work. Note that you cannot change channels with xawtv, you
have to zap using [sct]zap. If you want a nice application for
TV watching and record/playback, have a look at VDR.
If your card does not have a hardware MPEG decoder you need
a software MPEG decoder. Mplayer or xine are known to work.
Newsflash: MythTV also has DVB support now.
Note: Only very recent versions of Mplayer and xine can decode.
MPEG2 transport streams (TS) directly. Then, run
'[sct]zap channelname -r' in one xterm, and keep it running,
and start 'mplayer - < /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0' or
'xine stdin://mpeg2 < /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0' in a second xterm.
That's all far from perfect, but it seems no one has written
a nice DVB application which includes a builtin software MPEG
decoder yet.
Newsflash: Newest xine directly supports DVB. Just copy your
channels.conf to ~/.xine and start 'xine dvb://', or select
the DVB button in the xine GUI. Channel switching works using the
numpad pgup/pgdown (NP9 / NP3) keys to scroll through the channel osd
menu and pressing numpad-enter to switch to the selected channel.
Note: Older versions of xine and mplayer understand MPEG program
streams (PS) only, and can be used in conjunction with the
ts2ps tool from the Metzler Brother's dvb-mpegtools package.

(with software MPEG decode)

or view dvb/mpeg/dsm-cc/mhp stream information (TS,
PES, SECTION)
4. Can't get a signal tuned correctly
If you are using a Technotrend/Hauppauge DVB-C card *without* analog
module, you might have to use module parameter adac=-1 (dvb-ttpci.o).
5. The dvb_net device doesn't give me any packets at all
Run tcpdump on the dvb0_0 interface. This sets the interface
into promiscous mode so it accepts any packets from the PID
you have configured with the dvbnet utility. Check if there
are any packets with the IP addr and MAC addr you have
configured with ifconfig.
If tcpdump doesn't give you any output, check the statistics
which ifconfig outputs. (Note: If the MAC address is wrong,
dvb_net won't get any input; thus you have to run tcpdump
before checking the statistics.) If there are no packets at
all then maybe the PID is wrong. If there are error packets,
then either the PID is wrong or the stream does not conform to
the MPE standard (EN 301 192, http://www.etsi.org/). You can
use e.g. dvbsnoop for debugging.
6. The dvb_net device doesn't give me any multicast packets
Check your routes if they include the multicast address range.
Additionally make sure that "source validation by reversed path
lookup" is disabled:
$ "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/dvb0/rp_filter"
7. What the hell are all those modules that need to be loaded?
For a dvb-ttpci av7110 based full-featured card the following
modules are loaded:
- videodev: Video4Linux core module. This is the base module that
gives you access to the "analog" tv picture of the av7110 mpeg2
decoder.
- v4l2-common: common functions for Video4Linux-2 drivers
- v4l1-compat: backward compatiblity layer for Video4Linux-1 legacy
applications
- dvb-core: DVB core module. This provides you with the
/dev/dvb/adapter entries
- saa7146: SAA7146 core driver. This is need to access any SAA7146
based card in your system.
- saa7146_vv: SAA7146 video and vbi functions. These are only needed
for full-featured cards.
- video-buf: capture helper module for the saa7146_vv driver. This
one is responsible to handle capture buffers.
- dvb-ttpci: The main driver for AV7110 based, full-featued
DVB-S/C/T cards

Linux Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) subsystem
=============================================
The main development site and CVS repository for these
drivers is http://linuxtv.org/.
The developer mailing list linux-dvb is also hosted there,
see http://linuxtv.org/lists.php. Please check
the archive http://linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/
and the Wiki http://linuxtv.org/wiki/
before asking newbie questions on the list.
API documentation, utilities and test/example programs
are available as part of the old driver package for Linux 2.4
(linuxtv-dvb-1.0.x.tar.gz), or from CVS (module DVB).
We plan to split this into separate packages, but it's not
been done yet.
http://linuxtv.org/downloads/
What's inside this directory:
"cards.txt"
contains a list of supported hardware.
"contributors.txt"
is the who-is-who of DVB development
"faq.txt"
contains frequently asked questions and their answers.
"get_dvb_firmware"
script to download and extract firmware for those devices
that require it.
"ttusb-dec.txt"
contains detailed informations about the
TT DEC2000/DEC3000 USB DVB hardware.
"bt8xx.txt"
contains detailed installation instructions for the
various bt8xx based "budget" DVB cards
(Nebula, Pinnacle PCTV, Twinhan DST)
"README.dibusb"
contains detailed information about adapters
based on DiBcom reference design.
"udev.txt"
how to get DVB and udev up and running.
Good luck and have fun!

The DVB subsystem currently registers to the sysfs subsystem using the
"class_simple" interface.
This means that only the basic informations like module loading parameters
are presented through sysfs. Other things that might be interesting are
currently *not* available.
Nevertheless it's now possible to add proper udev rules so that the
DVB device nodes are created automatically.
We assume that you have udev already up and running and that have been
creating the DVB device nodes manually up to now due to the missing sysfs
support.
0. Don't forget to disable your current method of creating the
device nodes manually.
1. Unfortunately, you'll need a helper script to transform the kernel
sysfs device name into the well known dvb adapter / device naming scheme.
The script should be called "dvb.sh" and should be placed into a script
dir where udev can execute it, most likely /etc/udev/scripts/
So, create a new file /etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh and add the following:
------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
/bin/echo $1 | /bin/sed -e 's,dvb\([0-9]\)\.\([^0-9]*\)\([0-9]\),dvb/adapter\1/\2\3,'
------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
Don't forget to make the script executable with "chmod".
1. You need to create a proper udev rule that will create the device nodes
like you know them. All real distributions out there scan the /etc/udev/rules.d
directory for rule files. The main udev configuration file /etc/udev/udev.conf
will tell you the directory where the rules are, most likely it's /etc/udev/rules.d/
Create a new rule file in that directory called "dvb.rule" and add the following line:
------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
KERNEL="dvb*", PROGRAM="/etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh %k", NAME="%c"
------------------------------schnipp------------------------------------------------
If you want more control over the device nodes (for example a special group membership)
have a look at "man udev".
For every device that registers to the sysfs subsystem with a "dvb" prefix,
the helper script /etc/udev/scripts/dvb.sh is invoked, which will then
create the proper device node in your /dev/ directory.
