They provided specs and a firmware. - -Quite keen I wanted to put the driver (with some quirks of course) into dibusb. -After reading some specs and doing some USB snooping, it realized, that the -dibusb-driver would be a complete mess afterwards. So I decided to do it in a -different way: With the help of a dvb-usb-framework. - -The framework provides generic functions (mostly kernel API calls), such as: - -- Transport Stream URB handling in conjunction with dvb-demux-feed-control - (bulk and isoc are supported) -- registering the device for the DVB-API -- registering an I2C-adapter if applicable -- remote-control/input-device handling -- firmware requesting and loading (currently just for the Cypress USB - controllers) -- other functions/methods which can be shared by several drivers (such as - functions for bulk-control-commands) -- TODO: a I2C-chunker. It creates device-specific chunks of register-accesses - depending on length of a register and the number of values that can be - multi-written and multi-read. - -The source code of the particular DVB USB devices does just the communication -with the device via the bus.

Known problems and bugs - -- Don't remove the USB device while running an DVB application, your system - will go crazy or die most likely. - -2.1. Adding support for devices - -TODO - -2.2. USB1.1 Bandwidth limitation - -A lot 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 is 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 the dvb-usb-devices) - -The bug, where the TS is distorted by a heavy usage of the device is gone -definitely. All dvb-usb-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.

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 processed by the PC before it can be - displayed on the video monitor screen. Some Analogue TV cards - for PCs 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: - - * modprobe bttv (normally loaded automatically) - * modprobe dvb-bt8xx (or place dvb-bt8xx in /etc/modules) - - 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 or /lib/firmware/ - (depending on configuration of firmware hotplug). - -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.

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 parameter "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. - -3.
