Post subject: | R5A30.1 - Access to Motorola DCT-6200 over Firewire |
I just installed R5A30.1 after having some poor results with R5A30. Whenever I try to view live tv over firewire all i get is a black screen. I have reviewed other posts referring to the black screen but they do not seem to fit the bill here. This was not a problem with R5A26. After attempting to view live tv, I checked in /var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log. Here is what I found: Code: 2006-01-10 23:44:04.045 Firewire: Initializing Port: 0, Node: 2, Speed: 100Mbps
2006-01-10 23:44:04.047 Firewire: Creating P2P Connection with Node: 2 /usr/bin/mythbackend: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libiec61883.so.0: undefined symbol: raw1394_bandwidth_modify I tried adding the mythtv user to the appropriate groups in /etc/groups, as others have suggested, the problem still persists. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might resolve this? Or if I need to post any further data in order to diganose this, please let me know. Thanks, Dan |

I am having the same problem. Cecil asked if I could try recompiling but I haven't had a chance to try that yet, so you may want to start there. |

I am also having the same problem. I read somewhere that libraw1394 changed the name of a function from v0.8 to 0.9. Not sure if thats it and no where near my box to check. Hope someone can figure this out. |

If recompiling is what it takes, I will give it a shot. Should I be pulling a snaptshot from subversion or was the source loaded. I don't have a lot of time right now, but I will take a look at this more tonight. If someone is willing, please post a brief summary of the steps involved. I have not looked into compiling myth on my own yet as I have always been using the knoppmyth distro. Thanks, Dan |

I tried re-compiling the myth source, but I seem to have run into an error. Everything seemed to have compiled and installed correctly. I started up app and, again, everything seems to have worked correctly. When I tried watching live tv, I received a popup stating that the frontend could not talk to the backend. To perform this, I installed the following: build-essential, g++-3.4, gcc-3.4, libttf-dev, libqt3-mt-mysql, libqt3-mt-dev, libxvmc-dev, fakeroot, debhelper, autoconf, automake1.8, libxxf86vm-dev. This gave me a sufficient build environment. Here is how I compiled Myth: CXX=g++-3.4 CC=gcc-3.4 ./configure --enable-xvmc --enable-opengl-vsync --enable-lirc --enable-firewire CXX=g++-3.4 CC=gcc-3.4 qmake mythtv.pro CXX=g++-3.4 CC=gcc-3.4 make CXX=g++-3.4 CC=gcc-3.4 make install On the right path? After inspecting the mythbackend.log further it seems that the mythbackend is not starting as the logs have not rolled over to today's date. Could I have installed myth incorrectly? Thanks for any help. Dan |

You should not have to install an additional packages to recompile MythTV (period). You can simply untar the source that is in /usr/src, apply the diff that is in /usr/src and dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b. No response for a guinea pig, I guess no one wants to work with me on this... |

I will be a guinea pig and work with you, I won't be able to give this a shot tonight but I will first thing in the morning. |

Sorry about this. I thought I was being the guinea pig, but I went in the completely wrong direction, according to cesman's post. I ended up reverting back to R5A26 so that I could get my myth box back up and running. I would like to learn more about the build process. Cesman, if you are willing, could you post more detailed instructions on re-compiling myth on knoppmyth. Thanks. |

No, as there are already instructions on the forum for building... |

This is an easy fix to the original post. In mythtv-setup, for Tuner, change from Point-to-Point to Broadcast. That should do it. Now, if you answer me how to get myth working after crashing. |

Post subject: | Firewire, DTC-6200, R5A30.2 |
With R5A26, RCN, DTC-6200 and a cheapo StarTech pci1394_4 I had no difficulties (although I didn't test the HD channels yet) With R5A30.2 No luck, I also get the 15 second error. However in killing and restarting the backend it (the firewire) does in fact switch the station on the DTC-6200. Point to point and broadcast make no difference, no video. I have been using port node 0,1. |

Be sure to run 'plugreport' and fine out which node the firewire is connected to. And be sure to change from Point-to-Point to Broadcast. |

I am running R5A30.1 and am not having luck getting firewire to work. when i plug the cable box in, dct-6200, i get the following error: Code: Feb 4 15:16:54 mythtv ieee1394.agent[5291]: ... no drivers for IEEE1394 product 0x/0x/0x
Feb 4 15:16:54 mythtv ieee1394.agent[5303]: dv1394: loaded successfully Feb 4 15:16:54 mythtv ieee1394.agent[5303]: raw1394: already loaded Feb 4 15:16:54 mythtv ieee1394.agent[5359]: ... no drivers for IEEE1394 product 0x/0x/0x Feb 4 15:16:54 mythtv ieee1394.agent[5371]: ... no drivers for IEEE1394 product 0x000000/0x005068/0x010101 Feb 4 15:16:54 mythtv ieee1394.agent[5276]: ... no drivers for IEEE1394 product 0x/0x/0x the /dev/raw1394 is there but i cannot get test-mpg2 to work correctly. it is missing certain packages with the libiec61883-utils. apt-get will not retrieve libiec61883-utils. should i not worry about the test-mpg2 and try to just get firewire to work within mythtv or should i make sure that the hardware works at the lower level by using the test-mpg2 utility? |

For gentoo, i had to use the exmples use flag in order to get the test-mpeg2 utility, otherwise, id have to extract from tarball. |
