Sound input in S-Video saa7134 AVerMedia Cardbus
9 answers - 891 bytes -

Hi,
I use AVerMedia Cardbus TV (E500) and I'd like to use also S-video. This party works, means I have video with excelent quality but I don't hear any sound. To be exact I hear the sound that is TV sound and coming from TV source. Does anybody can help me what to do, to be able switch between TV and S-Video sound inputs?
My driver setup is attached.
Thanks

The lazy man's way is to hook it up to the Line in on your sound card :).
You'll need separate audio ins no matter what (svideo doesn't carry a sound
signal of course). You'll probably need an adapter to go from the 2 RCA plugs
on your svideo source to a single 1/4" jack for your line in (make sure you
get an adapter marked for stereo or you'll just get mono sound). Most tuner
software have a bad habit of muting the line-in on my computer when they
exits, so if you're using other tuner software you may need to check your
mixer settings when you go back and forth.
If you can't use line in, you'll have to fiddle with audio splitters to get
the signal in (you can get ones at radio shack that go from one 1/4" jack to
two 1/4" jacks). They can affect signal quality though.

Hi,
Please update the driver from the cvs at linuxtv.org.
About a week ago, i checked in a bug fix for the SS sound
routing. The affected files are saa7134-tvaudio.c and
saa7134-oss.c
Please be also aware that the driver supports only 1 format
for digital sound routing:
2 channels, 16bit signed, 32kHz sampling rate, so the appropriate
sox command is:
soc -c 2 -s -w -r 32000 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp1 -t ossdsp /dev/dsp
By the way, the saa 7133 section has the same bug, i will check in
the fix the next days.
Good luck

Hallo Hartmut,
da du momentan heftig in der V4L involviert bist und ich diese Liste nur
sporadisch (sprich - am Wochenende) verfolge, rde mich der aktuelle
Status der Tuner-Implementierungen interessieren. Eventuell nnte ich
auch ab und an mit anpacken.
An Hardware steht mir momentan eine Typhon DVB-T DU Digital/Analog
sowie eine ltere Medion PCI-Karte zur Vgung.
Die "Bchse" habe ich zwischenzeitlich mal ffnet und die Hardware
durchgecheckt. Ich habe auch einige HiRes-Photos gemacht, an Hand deren
die Pin-Belegung des SAA7135 ersichtlich ist. Quarz-Taktfrequenzen
lassen sich auf den Photos leider nicht erkennen, aber chst gehe
ich nochmal mit der Lupe dran.
Hier ist die re Hardware:
TDA10046HT
TDA8274
TDA8275
TDA8290
SAA7135HL
Hast du (mehr oder weniger :)) llig Dtter zu den TDA82xx
Chips?
Und - hast du ansatzweise eine Idee, wie man herausbekommt, ob die
beiden Tuner auf einer jeweils eigenen I2C Adresse liegen?
Eine aktive Messung verbietet sich bei der CardBus-Karte leider
Viele Ge,
Jrgen
P.S. Die 3 Bilder der Karte sind jeweils ca. 2MB , deshalb habe ich
sie nicht ngt. Falls du daran Interesse hast, maile ich sie dir
zu.

Uuups
a big sorry to all non-german speakers
it was intented to get a private mail
Short summary:
I told Hartmut that I disassembled the Duo DVB-T Cardbus and took some
high res pictures.
I will make them available this afternoon.
Sorry again for the inconvenience
Cheers,

Hi,
As far as i know, the Typhoon module is a clone of the Lifeview DVB-T DU
cardbus module. I have a driver basically working but is has performance /
stability issues (but not crashes).
I more or less decided to stop optimization work for the time being.
Instead i should work on getting it into the CVS.
I also have a driver for the Medion DVB-T cards. This works almost
perfectly.
I have datasheets of the chips, but as far as i know you need an NDA.
So i can't distribute them, sorry.
I can send snapshots to a selected group. But due to practical
reasons, it violates some rules. This caused trouble in the past.
That's why i'd like to keep the number of persons limited.
Best regards
Hartmut

I set the list up. Nobody ever made it an English list. If people feel more
comfortable discussing things in their native languge when a large number of
the people involved speak it as their first language then so be it.
