Hi I'm using Fedora Core 2 and I'm trying to let work my new Hauppauge Nova-T but I have some problem. My system is: Fedora Core 2 Linux 2.6.8-1.521 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux # modprobe grundig_29504-401 # modprobe budget # dmesg [...] ACPI: PCI interrupt 0000:00:0e.0[A] -> GSI 5 (level, low) -> IRQ 5 saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem 42a43000 (revision 1, irq 5) (0x13c2,0x1005). DVB: registering new adapter (TT-Budget/WinTV-NOVA-T PCI). saa7146: saa7146_i2c_adapter_prepare(): bitrate: 0x00000000 DVB: registering frontend 0 (Grundig 29504-401 (LSI L64781 Based))... adapter has MAC addr = 00:d0:5c:21:2a:2f I guess it looks fine. I dont use the tda1004x module and firmware cos I've been told that my card revision uses Grundig 29504-401. I dont use any firmware, but apparently it's not needed with the modules I load in the kernel. Anyway these devices came up: /dev/dvb/adapter0/dvr0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0 /dev/dvb/adapter0/net0 Anyone using Hauppauge Nova-T can confirm me that this means that my hardware has been recognized succesfully and working properly? I downloaded linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0.tar.bz2 from the linuxtv.org site and also the newer version from the cvs and I tried to tune my card. I live in Italy and I didnt find an already made channels.conf so I decided to build my own. From the Hauppauge program in windows I have been able to steal some information about the first channel i wanted to tune: Service: RaiUno Provider: Rai Channel number: C50 Frequency: 706.000 (Mhz) Service ID: 3401 Audio PID: 650 Video PID: 512 AC3-PID: 0 Teletext PID: 576 Subtitle PID: 0 Org. Net ID: 318 Spectral Inversion: 0 String under the signal quality bar: 8K - 1/4 - 64QAM - CR 1/2 At first I created a file to be used with scan (from dvb-apps): # Italy # T freq bw fec_hi fec_lo mod transmission-mode guard-interval hierarchy T 706000000 8MHz 1/2 NONE QAM64 8k 1/4 NONE But the only result has been always "WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!!", so I decided I had enough parameters to guess by myself the channels.conf: RaiUno:706000000:INVERSION_OFF:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_1_2:FEC_NONE:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_4:HIERARCHY_NONE:512:650 But tzap wasnt able to lock the signal and there was no output in dvr0. Can anyone help me with this all? The big problem is that I'm not sure if the problem is the hardware part (modules) or the tuning part. Is there anyone that is using my same hardware and is able to confirm it's working properly? Is there anyone from italy with an already made channel.conf? If I'll be sure about the working part I can concentrate myself on the not working part. Thanks in advance. -- Simon.
