latest pvrxxx: 20071204 port

Thu Apr 12 23:22:51 UTC 2007

Thanks usleep,
heres some more feedback.

Test of pvrxxx-20071204 port:
TV/Tuner-card: PVR-350 (Tuner: NTSC/M)  on

tiger# uname -a
FreeBSD 6.2-STABLE-200703 #0: Thu Apr 12 17:04:50 EDT 2007 
...:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/TIGER3  i386

Response(s):
- much smoother, no more dma-messages/errors.
- as far as dma-messages, none so far as can be seen from tailing messages 
log below.
- also, kldstat appears to show loading of HW encoder/decoder of the 
pvr-350.

Problem(s):
- small note: (kernel- page fault panic ? as expected when I tried 
"pvrsetchannel -a on -m 1 13")
- using "pvrsetchannel xxx.yy" on several freq's (with and without Cable 
connected)I was able to get sound and video but both sound and video were 
"static"  -like no chief in a test pattern yet with a musical background  :)

>finally the integration of the linux-tuner module seems stable. get it at:
>  http://usleepless.110mb.com/pvrxxx_12042007.tgz
>
>features:
>- should support all tuners ivtv-0.4.6 supports.
>- should work for 150, 250, 350 and 500 cards ( currently only 350s
>and 500s are confirmed to be working ).
>- removed: channel tuning. tune by frequency instead.
>
>fixed:
>- fixed broken NTSC support.
>- broken streams?
>
>usage:
>- if you are experiencing a lot of dma-messages: crank up your Hz!
>especially for machines running X. i am running at 1000hz now.
>- after the module is loaded, only a "pvr250-setchannel yyy.xx" is needed.

>- how do you rate the quality of the capture
