The bttv driver
 | 
						|
===============
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Release notes for bttv
 | 
						|
----------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You'll need at least these config options for bttv:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	CONFIG_I2C=m
 | 
						|
	CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT=m
 | 
						|
	CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=m
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The latest bttv version is available from http://bytesex.org/bttv/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Make bttv work with your card
 | 
						|
-----------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Just try "modprobe bttv" and see if that works.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If it doesn't bttv likely could not autodetect your card and needs some
 | 
						|
insmod options.  The most important insmod option for bttv is "card=n"
 | 
						|
to select the correct card type.  If you get video but no sound you've
 | 
						|
very likely specified the wrong (or no) card type.  A list of supported
 | 
						|
cards is in CARDLIST.bttv
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If bttv takes very long to load (happens sometimes with the cheap
 | 
						|
cards which have no tuner), try adding this to your modules.conf:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For the WinTV/PVR you need one firmware file from the driver CD:
 | 
						|
hcwamc.rbf.  The file is in the pvr45xxx.exe archive (self-extracting
 | 
						|
zip file, unzip can unpack it).  Put it into the /etc/pvr directory or
 | 
						|
use the firm_altera=<path> insmod option to point the driver to the
 | 
						|
location of the file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If your card isn't listed in CARDLIST.bttv or if you have trouble making
 | 
						|
audio work, you should read the Sound-FAQ.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Autodetecting cards
 | 
						|
-------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
bttv uses the PCI Subsystem ID to autodetect the card type.  lspci lists
 | 
						|
the Subsystem ID in the second line, looks like this:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	00:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 (rev 02)
 | 
						|
		Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV/GO
 | 
						|
		Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 5
 | 
						|
		Memory at e2000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
only bt878-based cards can have a subsystem ID (which does not mean
 | 
						|
that every card really has one).  bt848 cards can't have a Subsystem
 | 
						|
ID and therefore can't be autodetected.  There is a list with the ID's
 | 
						|
in bttv-cards.c (in case you are intrested or want to mail patches
 | 
						|
with updates).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Still doesn't work?
 | 
						|
-------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I do NOT have a lab with 30+ different grabber boards and a
 | 
						|
PAL/NTSC/SECAM test signal generator at home, so I often can't
 | 
						|
reproduce your problems.  This makes debugging very difficult for me.
 | 
						|
If you have some knowledge and spare time, please try to fix this
 | 
						|
yourself (patches very welcome of course...)  You know: The linux
 | 
						|
slogan is "Do it yourself".
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There is a mailing list at
 | 
						|
http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-media
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you have trouble with some specific TV card, try to ask there
 | 
						|
instead of mailing me directly.  The chance that someone with the
 | 
						|
same card listens there is much higher...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For problems with sound:  There are a lot of different systems used
 | 
						|
for TV sound all over the world.  And there are also different chips
 | 
						|
which decode the audio signal.  Reports about sound problems ("stereo
 | 
						|
does'nt work") are pretty useless unless you include some details
 | 
						|
about your hardware and the TV sound scheme used in your country (or
 | 
						|
at least the country you are living in).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Modprobe options
 | 
						|
----------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Note: "modinfo <module>" prints various information about a kernel
 | 
						|
module, among them a complete and up-to-date list of insmod options.
 | 
						|
This list tends to be outdated because it is updated manually ...

	with a camera or external tuner ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args:
 |

tvaudio.o
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	new, experimental module which is supported to provide a single
 | 
						|
	driver for all simple i2c audio control chips (tda/tea*).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args:
 | 
						|
		tda8425  = 1	enable/disable the support for the
 | 
						|
		tda9840  = 1	various chips.
 | 
						|
		tda9850  = 1	The tea6300 can't be autodetected and is
 | 
						|
		tda9855  = 1	therefore off by default, if you have
 | 
						|
		tda9873  = 1	this one on your card (STB uses these)
 | 
						|
		tda9874a = 1	you have to enable it explicitly.
 | 
						|
		tea6300  = 0	The two tda985x chips use the same i2c
 | 
						|
		tea6420  = 1	address and can't be disturgished from
 | 
						|
		pic16c54 = 1	each other, you might have to disable
 | 
						|
				the wrong one.
 | 
						|
		debug = 1	print debug messages
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args for tda9874a:

		tda9874a_SIF=1/2	select sound IF input pin (1 or 2)
 | 
						|
					(default is pin 1)
 | 
						|
		tda9874a_AMSEL=0/1	auto-mute select for NICAM (default=0)
 | 
						|
					Please read note 3 below!
 | 
						|
		tda9874a_STD=n		select TV sound standard (0..8):
 | 
						|
					0 - A2, B/G
 | 
						|
					1 - A2, M (Korea)
 | 
						|
					2 - A2, D/K (1)

 | 
						|
					7 - NICAM, D/K (default)
 | 
						|
					8 - NICAM, L
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	Note 1: tda9874a supports both tda9874h (old) and tda9874a (new) chips.
 | 
						|
	Note 2: tda9874h/a and tda9875 (which is supported separately by
 | 
						|
	tda9875.o) use the same i2c address so both modules should not be
 | 
						|
	used at the same time.
 | 
						|
	Note 3: Using tda9874a_AMSEL option depends on your TV card design!
 | 
						|
		AMSEL=0: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound
 | 
						|
			 and the sound on 1st carrier (i.e. FM mono or AM).
 | 
						|
		AMSEL=1: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound
 | 
						|
			 and the analog mono input (MONOIN pin).
 | 
						|
	If tda9874a decoder on your card has MONOIN pin not connected, then
 | 
						|
	use only tda9874_AMSEL=0 or don't specify this option at all.
 | 
						|
	For example:
 | 
						|
	  card=65 (FlyVideo 2000S) - set AMSEL=1 or AMSEL=0
 | 
						|
	  card=72 (Prolink PV-BT878P rev.9B) - set AMSEL=0 only
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
msp3400.o
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	The driver for the msp34xx sound processor chips. If you have a
 | 
						|
	stereo card, you probably want to insmod this one.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args:
 | 
						|
		debug=1/2	print some debug info to the syslog,
 | 
						|
				2 is more verbose.
 | 
						|
		simple=1	Use the "short programming" method.  Newer
 | 
						|
				msp34xx versions support this.  You need this
 | 
						|
				for dbx stereo.  Default is on if supported by
 | 
						|
				the chip.
 | 
						|
		once=1		Don't check the TV-stations Audio mode
 | 
						|
				every few seconds, but only once after
 | 
						|
				channel switches.
 | 
						|
		amsound=1	Audio carrier is AM/NICAM at 6.5 Mhz.  This
 | 
						|
				should improve things for french people, the
 | 
						|
				carrier autoscan seems to work with FM only...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
tea6300.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	The driver for the tea6300 fader chip.  If you have a stereo
 | 
						|
	card and the msp3400.o doesn't work, you might want to try this
 | 
						|
	one.  This chip is seen on most STB TV/FM cards (usually from
 | 
						|
	Gateway OEM sold surplus on auction sites).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args:
 | 
						|
		debug=1		print some debug info to the syslog.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
tda8425.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	The driver for the tda8425 fader chip.  This driver used to be
 | 
						|
	part of bttv.c, so if your sound used to work but does not
 | 
						|
	anymore, try loading this module.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args:
 | 
						|
		debug=1		print some debug info to the syslog.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
tda985x.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	The driver for the tda9850/55 audio chips.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	insmod args:
 | 
						|
		debug=1		print some debug info to the syslog.
 | 
						|
		chip=9850/9855	set the chip type.

If the box freezes hard with bttv
 | 
						|
---------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
It might be a bttv driver bug.  It also might be bad hardware.  It also
 | 
						|
might be something else ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Just mailing me "bttv freezes" isn't going to help much.  This README
 | 
						|
has a few hints how you can help to pin down the problem.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
bttv bugs
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If some version works and another doesn't it is likely to be a driver
 | 
						|
bug.  It is very helpful if you can tell where exactly it broke
 | 
						|
(i.e. the last working and the first broken version).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
With a hard freeze you probably doesn't find anything in the logfiles.
 | 
						|
The only way to capture any kernel messages is to hook up a serial
 | 
						|
console and let some terminal application log the messages.  /me uses
 | 
						|
screen.  See Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst for details on setting
 | 
						|
up a serial console.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Read Documentation/admin-guide/bug-hunting.rst to learn how to get any useful
 | 
						|
information out of a register+stack dump printed by the kernel on
 | 
						|
protection faults (so-called "kernel oops").
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you run into some kind of deadlock, you can try to dump a call trace
 | 
						|
for each process using sysrq-t (see Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst).
 | 
						|
This way it is possible to figure where *exactly* some process in "D"
 | 
						|
state is stuck.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I've seen reports that bttv 0.7.x crashes whereas 0.8.x works rock solid
 | 
						|
for some people.  Thus probably a small buglet left somewhere in bttv
 | 
						|
0.7.x.  I have no idea where exactly, it works stable for me and a lot of
 | 
						|
other people.  But in case you have problems with the 0.7.x versions you
 | 
						|
can give 0.8.x a try ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
hardware bugs
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some hardware can't deal with PCI-PCI transfers (i.e. grabber => vga).
 | 
						|
Sometimes problems show up with bttv just because of the high load on
 | 
						|
the PCI bus. The bt848/878 chips have a few workarounds for known
 | 
						|
incompatibilities, see README.quirks.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some folks report that increasing the pci latency helps too,
 | 
						|
althrought I'm not sure whenever this really fixes the problems or
 | 
						|
only makes it less likely to happen.  Both bttv and btaudio have a
 | 
						|
insmod option to set the PCI latency of the device.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some mainboard have problems to deal correctly with multiple devices
 | 
						|
doing DMA at the same time.  bttv + ide seems to cause this sometimes,
 | 
						|
if this is the case you likely see freezes only with video and hard disk
 | 
						|
access at the same time.  Updating the IDE driver to get the latest and
 | 
						|
greatest workarounds for hardware bugs might fix these problems.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
other
 | 
						|
~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you use some binary-only yunk (like nvidia module) try to reproduce
 | 
						|
the problem without.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
IRQ sharing is known to cause problems in some cases.  It works just
 | 
						|
fine in theory and many configurations.  Neverless it might be worth a
 | 
						|
try to shuffle around the PCI cards to give bttv another IRQ or make
 | 
						|
it share the IRQ with some other piece of hardware.  IRQ sharing with
 | 
						|
VGA cards seems to cause trouble sometimes.  I've also seen funny
 | 
						|
effects with bttv sharing the IRQ with the ACPI bridge (and
 | 
						|
apci-enabled kernel).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Bttv quirks
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Below is what the bt878 data book says about the PCI bug compatibility
 | 
						|
modes of the bt878 chip.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The triton1 insmod option sets the EN_TBFX bit in the control register.
 | 
						|
The vsfx insmod option does the same for EN_VSFX bit.  If you have
 | 
						|
stability problems you can try if one of these options makes your box
 | 
						|
work solid.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
drivers/pci/quirks.c knows about these issues, this way these bits are
 | 
						|
enabled automagically for known-buggy chipsets (look at the kernel
 | 
						|
messages, bttv tells you).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Normal PCI Mode
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The PCI REQ signal is the logical-or of the incoming function requests.
 | 
						|
The inter-nal GNT[0:1] signals are gated asynchronously with GNT and
 | 
						|
demultiplexed by the audio request signal. Thus the arbiter defaults to
 | 
						|
the video function at power-up and parks there during no requests for
 | 
						|
bus access. This is desirable since the video will request the bus more
 | 
						|
often. However, the audio will have highest bus access priority. Thus
 | 
						|
the audio will have first access to the bus even when issuing a request
 | 
						|
after the video request but before the PCI external arbiter has granted
 | 
						|
access to the Bt879. Neither function can preempt the other once on the
 | 
						|
bus. The duration to empty the entire video PCI FIFO onto the PCI bus is
 | 
						|
very short compared to the bus access latency the audio PCI FIFO can
 | 
						|
tolerate.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
430FX Compatibility Mode
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When using the 430FX PCI, the following rules will ensure
 | 
						|
compatibility:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 (1) Deassert REQ at the same time as asserting FRAME.
 | 
						|
 (2) Do not reassert REQ to request another bus transaction until after
 | 
						|
     finish-ing the previous transaction.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Since the individual bus masters do not have direct control of REQ, a
 | 
						|
simple logical-or of video and audio requests would violate the rules.
 | 
						|
Thus, both the arbiter and the initiator contain 430FX compatibility
 | 
						|
mode logic. To enable 430FX mode, set the EN_TBFX bit as indicated in
 | 
						|
Device Control Register on page 104.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When EN_TBFX is enabled, the arbiter ensures that the two compatibility
 | 
						|
rules are satisfied. Before GNT is asserted by the PCI arbiter, this
 | 
						|
internal arbiter may still logical-or the two requests. However, once
 | 
						|
the GNT is issued, this arbiter must lock in its decision and now route
 | 
						|
only the granted request to the REQ pin. The arbiter decision lock
 | 
						|
happens regardless of the state of FRAME because it does not know when
 | 
						|
FRAME will be asserted (typically - each initiator will assert FRAME on
 | 
						|
the cycle following GNT). When FRAME is asserted, it is the initiator s
 | 
						|
responsibility to remove its request at the same time. It is the
 | 
						|
arbiters responsibility to allow this request to flow through to REQ and
 | 
						|
not allow the other request to hold REQ asserted. The decision lock may
 | 
						|
be removed at the end of the transaction: for example, when the bus is
 | 
						|
idle (FRAME and IRDY). The arbiter decision may then continue
 | 
						|
asynchronously until GNT is again asserted.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Interfacing with Non-PCI 2.1 Compliant Core Logic
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
A small percentage of core logic devices may start a bus transaction
 | 
						|
during the same cycle that GNT is de-asserted. This is non PCI 2.1
 | 
						|
compliant. To ensure compatibility when using PCs with these PCI
 | 
						|
controllers, the EN_VSFX bit must be enabled (refer to Device Control
 | 
						|
Register on page 104). When in this mode, the arbiter does not pass GNT
 | 
						|
to the internal functions unless REQ is asserted. This prevents a bus
 | 
						|
transaction from starting the same cycle as GNT is de-asserted. This
 | 
						|
also has the side effect of not being able to take advantage of bus
 | 
						|
parking, thus lowering arbitration performance. The Bt879 drivers must
 | 
						|
query for these non-compliant devices, and set the EN_VSFX bit only if
 | 
						|
required.

bttv and sound mini howto
 | 
						|
-------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There are a lot of different bt848/849/878/879 based boards available.
 | 
						|
Making video work often is not a big deal, because this is handled
 | 
						|
completely by the bt8xx chip, which is common on all boards.  But
 | 
						|
sound is handled in slightly different ways on each board.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To handle the grabber boards correctly, there is a array tvcards[] in
 | 
						|
bttv-cards.c, which holds the information required for each board.
 | 
						|
Sound will work only, if the correct entry is used (for video it often
 | 
						|
makes no difference).  The bttv driver prints a line to the kernel
 | 
						|
log, telling which card type is used.  Like this one:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	bttv0: model: BT848(Hauppauge old) [autodetected]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You should verify this is correct.  If it isn't, you have to pass the
 | 
						|
correct board type as insmod argument, "insmod bttv card=2" for
 | 
						|
example.  The file CARDLIST has a list of valid arguments for card.
 | 
						|
If your card isn't listed there, you might check the source code for
 | 
						|
new entries which are not listed yet.  If there isn't one for your
 | 
						|
card, you can check if one of the existing entries does work for you
 | 
						|
(just trial and error...).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some boards have an extra processor for sound to do stereo decoding
 | 
						|
and other nice features.  The msp34xx chips are used by Hauppauge for
 | 
						|
example.  If your board has one, you might have to load a helper
 | 
						|
module like msp3400.o to make sound work.  If there isn't one for the
 | 
						|
chip used on your board:  Bad luck.  Start writing a new one.  Well,
 | 
						|
you might want to check the video4linux mailing list archive first...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Of course you need a correctly installed soundcard unless you have the
 | 
						|
speakers connected directly to the grabber board.  Hint: check the
 | 
						|
mixer settings too.  ALSA for example has everything muted by default.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
How sound works in detail
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Still doesn't work?  Looks like some driver hacking is required.
 | 
						|
Below is a do-it-yourself description for you.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The bt8xx chips have 32 general purpose pins, and registers to control
 | 
						|
these pins.  One register is the output enable register
 | 
						|
(BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN), it says which pins are actively driven by the
 | 
						|
bt848 chip.  Another one is the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA), where
 | 
						|
you can get/set the status if these pins.  They can be used for input
 | 
						|
and output.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Most grabber board vendors use these pins to control an external chip
 | 
						|
which does the sound routing.  But every board is a little different.
 | 
						|
These pins are also used by some companies to drive remote control
 | 
						|
receiver chips.  Some boards use the i2c bus instead of the gpio pins
 | 
						|
to connect the mux chip.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
As mentioned above, there is a array which holds the required
 | 
						|
information for each known board.  You basically have to create a new
 | 
						|
line for your board.  The important fields are these two:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: c
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	struct tvcard
 | 
						|
	{
 | 
						|
		[ ... ]
 | 
						|
		u32 gpiomask;
 | 
						|
		u32 audiomux[6]; /* Tuner, Radio, external, internal, mute, stereo */
 | 
						|
	};
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
gpiomask specifies which pins are used to control the audio mux chip.
 | 
						|
The corresponding bits in the output enable register
 | 
						|
(BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN) will be set as these pins must be driven by the
 | 
						|
bt848 chip.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The audiomux\[\] array holds the data values for the different inputs
 | 
						|
(i.e. which pins must be high/low for tuner/mute/...).  This will be
 | 
						|
written to the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA) to switch the audio
 | 
						|
mux.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
What you have to do is figure out the correct values for gpiomask and
 | 
						|
the audiomux array.  If you have Windows and the drivers four your
 | 
						|
card installed, you might to check out if you can read these registers
 | 
						|
values used by the windows driver.  A tool to do this is available
 | 
						|
from ftp://telepresence.dmem.strath.ac.uk/pub/bt848/winutil, but it
 | 
						|
doesn't work with bt878 boards according to some reports I received.
 | 
						|
Another one with bt878 support is available from
 | 
						|
http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/Files/btspy2.00.zip
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You might also dig around in the \*.ini files of the Windows applications.
 | 
						|
You can have a look at the board to see which of the gpio pins are
 | 
						|
connected at all and then start trial-and-error ...
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Starting with release 0.7.41 bttv has a number of insmod options to
 | 
						|
make the gpio debugging easier:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	bttv_gpio=0/1		enable/disable gpio debug messages
 | 
						|
	gpiomask=n		set the gpiomask value
 | 
						|
	audiomux=i,j,...	set the values of the audiomux array
 | 
						|
	audioall=a		set the values of the audiomux array (one
 | 
						|
				value for all array elements, useful to check
 | 
						|
				out which effect the particular value has).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The messages printed with bttv_gpio=1 look like this:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	bttv0: gpio: en=00000027, out=00000024 in=00ffffd8 [audio: off]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	en  =	output _en_able register (BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN)
 | 
						|
	out =	_out_put bits of the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA),
 | 
						|
		i.e. BT848_GPIO_DATA & BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN
 | 
						|
	in  = 	_in_put bits of the data register,
 | 
						|
		i.e. BT848_GPIO_DATA & ~BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Other elements of the tvcards array
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you are trying to make a new card work you might find it useful to
 | 
						|
know what the other elements in the tvcards array are good for:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
.. code-block:: none
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	video_inputs    - # of video inputs the card has
 | 
						|
	audio_inputs    - historical cruft, not used any more.
 | 
						|
	tuner           - which input is the tuner
 | 
						|
	svhs            - which input is svhs (all others are labeled composite)
 | 
						|
	muxsel          - video mux, input->registervalue mapping
 | 
						|
	pll             - same as pll= insmod option
 | 
						|
	tuner_type      - same as tuner= insmod option
 | 
						|
	*_modulename    - hint whenever some card needs this or that audio
 | 
						|
			module loaded to work properly.
 | 
						|
	has_radio	- whenever this TV card has a radio tuner.
 | 
						|
	no_msp34xx	- "1" disables loading of msp3400.o module
 | 
						|
	no_tda9875	- "1" disables loading of tda9875.o module
 | 
						|
	needs_tvaudio	- set to "1" to load tvaudio.o module
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If some config item is specified both from the tvcards array and as
 | 
						|
insmod option, the insmod option takes precedence.

 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All cards with Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 and normal
 | 
						|
Composite/S-VHS inputs are supported.  Teletext and Intercast support
 | 
						|
(PAL only) for ALL cards via VBI sample decoding in software.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some cards with additional multiplexing of inputs or other additional
 | 
						|
fancy chips are only partially supported (unless specifications by the
 | 
						|
card manufacturer are given).  When a card is listed here it isn't
 | 
						|
necessarily fully supported.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
All other cards only differ by additional components as tuners, sound
 | 
						|
decoders, EEPROMs, teletext decoders ...

MV-Delta
 | 
						|
- Bt848A
 | 
						|
- 4 Composite inputs, 1 S-VHS input (shared with 4th composite)
 | 
						|
- EEPROM
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
http://www.matrix-vision.de/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This card has no tuner but supports all 4 composite (1 shared with an
 | 
						|
S-VHS input) of the Bt848A.
 | 
						|
Very nice card if you only have satellite TV but several tuners connected
 | 
						|
to the card via composite.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Many thanks to Matrix-Vision for giving us 2 cards for free which made
 | 
						|
Bt848a/Bt849 single crystal operation support possible!!!

 | 
						|
- PAL, SECAM or NTSC TV tuner (Philips or TEMIC)
 | 
						|
- MSP34xx sound decoder on add on board
 | 
						|
  decoder is supported but AFAIK does not yet work
 |

Hauppauge Win/TV pci
 | 
						|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There are many different versions of the Hauppauge cards with different
 | 
						|
tuners (TV+Radio ...), teletext decoders.
 | 
						|
Note that even cards with same model numbers have (depending on the revision)
 | 
						|
different chips on it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Bt848 (and others but always in 2 crystal operation???)
 | 
						|
  newer cards have a Bt878
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- PAL, SECAM, NTSC or tuner with or without Radio support
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
e.g.:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- PAL:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - TDA5737: VHF, hyperband and UHF mixer/oscillator for TV and VCR 3-band tuners
 | 
						|
  - TSA5522: 1.4 GHz I2C-bus controlled synthesizer, I2C 0xc2-0xc3
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- NTSC:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
  - TDA5731: VHF, hyperband and UHF mixer/oscillator for TV and VCR 3-band tuners
 | 
						|
  - TSA5518: no datasheet available on Philips site
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Philips SAA5246 or SAA5284 ( or no) Teletext decoder chip
 | 
						|
  with buffer RAM (e.g. Winbond W24257AS-35: 32Kx8 CMOS static RAM)
 | 
						|
  SAA5246 (I2C 0x22) is supported
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 256 bytes EEPROM: Microchip 24LC02B or Philips 8582E2Y
 | 
						|
  with configuration information
 | 
						|
  I2C address 0xa0 (24LC02B also responds to 0xa2-0xaf)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 1 tuner, 1 composite and (depending on model) 1 S-VHS input
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- 14052B: mux for selection of sound source
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- sound decoder: TDA9800, MSP34xx (stereo cards)

This card is basically the same as all the rest (Bt484A, Philips tuner),
 | 
						|
the main difference is that they have attached a programmable attenuator to 3
 | 
						|
GPIO lines in order to give some volume control. They have also stuck an
 | 
						|
infra-red remote control decoded on the board, I will add support for this
 | 
						|
when I get time (it simple generates an interrupt for each key press, with
 | 
						|
the key code is placed in the GPIO port).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
I don't yet have any application to test the radio support. The tuner
 | 
						|
frequency setting should work but it is possible that the audio multiplexer
 | 
						|
is wrong. If it doesn't work, send me email.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- No Thanks to Leadtek they refused to answer any questions about their
 | 
						|
  hardware. The driver was written by visual inspection of the card. If you
 | 
						|
  use this driver, send an email insult to them, and tell them you won't
 | 
						|
  continue buying their hardware unless they support Linux.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Little thanks to Princeton Technology Corp (http://www.princeton.com.tw)
 | 
						|
  who make the audio attenuator. Their publicly available data-sheet available
 | 
						|
  on their web site doesn't include the chip programming information! Hidden
 | 
						|
  on their server are the full data-sheets, but don't ask how I found it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To use the driver I use the following options, the tuner and pll settings might
 | 
						|
be different in your country
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
insmod videodev
 | 
						|
insmod i2c scan=1 i2c_debug=0 verbose=0

Many thanks to:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Markus Schroeder <schroedm@uni-duesseldorf.de> for information on the Bt848
 | 
						|
  and tuner programming and his control program xtvc.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Martin Buck <martin-2.buck@student.uni-ulm.de> for his great Videotext
 | 
						|
  package.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Gerd Hoffmann for the MSP3400 support and the modular
 | 
						|
  I2C, tuner, ... support.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- MATRIX Vision for giving us 2 cards for free, which made support of
 | 
						|
  single crystal operation possible.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- MIRO for providing a free PCTV card and detailed information about the
 | 
						|
  components on their cards. (E.g. how the tuner type is detected)
 | 
						|
  Without their card I could not have debugged the NTSC mode.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- Hauppauge for telling how the sound input is selected and what components
 | 
						|
  they do and will use on their radio cards.
 | 
						|
  Also many thanks for faxing me the FM1216 data sheet.
