Post subject: | Dual WinTV cards, btaudio, working. |
Ok, Video off the second card is fuzzy at the moment, which is probably an artifact of the cable connection, but it's working as a dual input recorder. Motherboard MSI KT4V K7 motherboard with a VIA (tm) KT400 chipset and a Athelon 1800 XP processor. 512 Meg 266 DDR memory 120 Gig 7200 rpm Seagate Hard Drive 2 Hauppauge! WinTV w dbx Stereo and FM Radio capture cards 1 SoundBlaster Live sound card. Video card is a GeForce 2, 64Mb AGP 4x/2x "Mad Dog Champion" card Current display is to a 19" Flat Panel LCD, or through a scan converter a 27" Toshiba TV, (display looks better on the LCD, larger and a bit washed out on the TV) Sound is currently going to a JVC Tuner for home theater. Modifications /etc/modules Code: Original Modified rtc rtc apm power_off=1 apm power_off=1 usb-uhci usb-uhci serial serial emu10k1-gp emu10k1-gp snd-emu10k1 snd-mixer-oss btaudio bttv bttv msp3400 msp3400 tvaudio tvaudio snd-emu10k1 snd-mixer-oss tuner tuner via-rhine via-rhine agpgart agpgart af_packet af_packet autofs4 autofs4 ext3 ext3 The addition of btaudio was as per the notes in the link following the /etc/modutils/btaudio file. I order for btaudio to function as desired it needs to be before bttv. I ran into mythtv front end crashes until I realized that I needed the snd-emu10k1 and snd-mixer-oss files before it to greb the /dev/dsp0 file first. That gives me a dsp that mythtv can talk to. It's possible that I could have told it to use /dev/dsp3, however I think that would have been even more work. Created a file /etc/modutils/btaudio Code: options bttv debug=2 options btaudio debug=2 digital=1 analog=0 rate=32000 pre-install btaudio modprobe snd-pcm-oss post-install btaudio modprobe bttv alias sound-slot-1 btaudio alias sound-service-1-0 btaudio alias sound-slot-2 btaudio alias sound-service-2-0 btaudio For an explanation of what these lines do see the URL:http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/mailarc/gforum.cgi?post=55962#55962 Thank you cesman for that link. Then I ran update-modules to integrate the btaudio file into /etc/modules.conf This is slightly different from the suggestions in the link in that this is the prefered way to integrate updates to modules.conf To use the black remote that comes with the model 401 Hauppauge! cards I ran irrecord and created a file hauppauge.black.conf containing the following: Code: # Please make this file available to others # by sending it to <lirc@bartelmus.de> # # this config file was automatically generated # using lirc-0.7.0pre2(hauppauge) on Tue Jan 6 13:56:58 2004 # # contributed by # # brand: hauppauge.black.conf # model no. of remote control: # devices being controlled by this remote: # begin remote name hauppauge.black.conf bits 13 eps 30 aeps 100 one 0 0 zero 0 0 gap 199992 min_repeat 4 toggle_bit 0 begin codes CH+ 0x0000000000001020 CH- 0x0000000000001021 TV 0x000000000000180F RADIO 0x000000000000100C VOL+ 0x0000000000001010 VOL- 0x0000000000001011 FULLSCREEN 0x000000000000102E MUTE 0x000000000000180D SOURCE 0x0000000000001822 1 0x0000000000001001 2 0x0000000000001802 3 0x0000000000001003 4 0x0000000000001804 5 0x0000000000001005 6 0x0000000000001806 7 0x0000000000001007 8 0x0000000000001808 9 0x0000000000001009 0 0x0000000000001800 RESERVED 0x000000000000101E MINIMIZE 0x0000000000001826 end codes end remote This I copied over /etc/lircd.conf I then edited the file .mythtv/lircrc to look like: Code: # Hauppauge! Black Remote
begin prog = mythtv button = 1 config = 1 end begin prog = mythtv button = 2 config = 2 end begin prog = mythtv button = 3 config = 3 end begin prog = mythtv button = 4 config = 4 end .... (skiping the buttons 5-0) begin prog = mythtv button = CH+ repeat = 3 config = Up end begin prog = mythtv button = CH- repeat = 3 config = Down end begin prog = mythtv button = VOL+ repeat = 3 config = ] end begin prog = mythtv button = VOL- repeat = 3 config = [ end begin prog = mythtv button = MUTE config = F9 end begin prog = mythtv button = SOURCE config = i end begin prog = mythtv button = FULLSCREEN config = w end begin prog = mythtv button = TV config = c end begin prog = mythtv button = RADIO config = Esc end begin prog = mythtv button = MINIMIZE config = m end begin prog = mythtv button = RESERVED config = Return end The only other changes that I had to make were pretty much all apt-get update; apt-get install xmltv, which brought in updates to a half dozen or so other things that are updated in Debian since the Knoppix build used for R4 was created. All in all this is a working system. I have not installed mame, nor do I intend to. I just bought a PS/2 that I intend to play with in the future. I may make that into another Linux box, but it's not a high priority. I will be happy to answer what questions I can. -Rusty |

Post subject: | Hauppauge WinTV PVR 150 MCE Bundle - Black Remote? |
I have just bought a Hauppauge WinTV PVR 150 MCE Bundle and I have a hard time to set it up even if I just have used the remote files as you write. I believe that it can be one of the existing configurations, probably a grey one, but I do not know how to restart the configuration without reinstalling the MythTV. It shows a gray remote on the box but in reality its black. Thank you! Gabor http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetai ... atid=20397 |

Well, after 4 years I'm sure things have changed... gorcsos wrote: I believe that it can be one of the existing configurations, probably a grey one, but I do not know how to restart the configuration without reinstalling the MythTV. I'm not sure which remote you need to select, but you can run /usr/local/bin/lirc-reconfig.sh.
