What happens is that at times the image shows a lot of horizontal lines in each DCT block, plus something looking like the "snow" effect on TVs when you have poor signal. Same hardware did not have this problem on 2.2.x, and i can reproduce this reliably on all systems i have. I am not sure if the meteor driver has the same problem -- i could not reproduce it but i only ran it for a few minutes (the problem with the brooktree appears reasonably often). Possible sources of problem: + maybe some change in vic, using one frame at a time on 2.2.x/ continuous capture in 3.1 ? (this would explain the problem as data would change in the middle of the DCT transform). + some change in the PCI code that somehow causes DMA to abort or write some bad data in memory. same as above. + changes in the driver (but this seems not to be the case). Any ideas ? These effects are very annoying, plus every scrambled frame takes a lot of bandwidth! cheers luigi -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO .

Any suggestion ? For some time i used an HP scanjet5p on a scsi port, but after a few months the scanner slowly stopped working (details at the end). i can't get another one, both because i consider this a poorly designed and overpriced unit, and because it has been discontinued in favour of parallel port/usb devices. I tried a couple of parallel port scanners (one Mustek, one Artec AS6P) but while i managed with some effort to talk to them using the ppc interface, i did not finish the work for lack of documentation and time. so... can anyone suggest anything ? thanks luigi (About the scanner problems: it was kind of a 'graceful degradation'. the scanner started occasionally misbehaving e.g. producing random patterns depending on the scan resolution, hitting the limit of the scan area without stopping the motor, etc., and the problem got worse and worse with time. since all this is done in firmware i don't think it is a problem on the outside, although i replaced cables just to be sure... opening the scanner showed that the unit has a very cheap design, e.g. with no switches to avoid that the carriage hits the case etc. -----------------------------------+------------------------------------- Luigi RIZZO .

Hi! |my name's Araceli... I'm new in freebsd and I have a problem... |I'll used fxtv to capture the photos for a gym, so I need save this |photos in an specific directory with a specific name (the name is a |number that I make), so I want to run fxtv from a browser after a |consult the number of membership and I want to pass the number (for the |name of the image) and the path (where to save the image) to fxtv... |How I can do it? Can you help me please? I'm sorry, but Fxtv doesn't support this. Fxtv is an interactive program so the only way to specify the filename is via the GUI (that is, through the text field key-in using the keyboard). It sounds like you need a batch (command-line) utility that just captures a single frame to the filename specified on the command-line. Though I don't have anything like this lying around, I'm sure that some of the folks that have their TV cards hooked up to web pages probably do. So I'm Ccing the FreeBSD multimedia mailing list so the appropriate folks can reply to you if they do. There might be something like this linked off the Bt848 home page, which is here: http://gable.nrl.cs.uoregon.edu/~dwhite/ However, it appears Doug is having permission problems today :-) Also if you want to sign up for the FreeBSD Multimedia e-mailing list, just mail majordomo@freebsd.org and put "subscribe multimedia" in the subject line. |P.D. Sorry by my english, it's terrible :-) Actually it's pretty good. I had no trouble understanding exactly what you were looking for :-) Randall To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
