Tuner issues with an older PVR-250 (Phillips Tuner)
|
|
I'm been beating myself up over this for some time now. The backstory
is that this card always used to work with 0.19, but I've since moved to
a 2.6 kernel and added a PVR-350 (which has the new tuner 47, but I got
the card some time before most people started to see that tuner).
I'm running a slightly patched mandrake 2.6.8.1 kernel with an updated
tuner module (for the 47), and of course ivtv 2.0-rc3d. Both cards can
capture just fine from S-Video, and on the PVR-350 (/dev/video1) I can
tune any of my local ntsc cable channels fine. The 350 also outputs
fine, although I have a bit more work to do to get it to do so without
causing headaches with my normal X setup (still have to setup lirc, get
it to run at bootup, etc).
My problem is getting the tuner on the 250 working. I believe it's a
first generation tuner, tveeprom detects it as a type 2, and that's what
I remembered from before. I think I got the card in fall 2003 or so
(sticker shows a revision 4811 and I peeled it back to verify the tuner
was a phillips brand). I don't think I can really do a good job of
describing my output, so I'll place a short sample of the output as a
link at http://www.kettering.edu/~hous1441/pvr250-example.mpeg (about
2.2MB worth, but no need to download the whole thing if you don't need
it all - captured at native 720x480 resolution just like my other card).
Here goes:
NTSC tuner is set and shows with ivtvctl, ./ptune.pl seems to properly
find each channel, but each looks horrible and appears to be out of sync
slightly, bad colors, etc. There are a few vertical lines that stay at
the right of the capture, and the picture itself appears shifted left
somewhat. I've tried everything I can think of at the moment, and am
lost. I'd appreciate any comments you might have. If you suspect a bad
card, I can try to find someone with a windows machine to test it with
Hauppage's drivers, but if it's bad, it failed in this machine while the
machine was running with the card was not being used for the last 6
months or so. Below is the log generated from the module load:
