Actually, moused is quite amenable to the manipulation required to make
it fully modular. If you (generic) have the time to do it, nobody is
going to complain.
Meanwhile, we have support for another peripheral. Stop complaining
and start helping.

Nice Try!!
I am working on a new daemon and in fact I am coding it right now .
As for moused being a flexible modular daemon I disagree.

Actually, no. The MouseRemote is a mouse, amongst other things, and
it's specifically intended to be connected inline with mice. As such,
our protocol handler for mouse data streams is the correct place to put
it. Ripping it out without simultaneously coming up with an equally
functional and architecturally 'better' solution is not going to endear
you to anyone.
I did actually propose to Randall the implementation of a stackable
'interception' layer, again to be managed by moused, however with only
one device (so far) in this particular circumstance, it didn't seem
worth the effort.

There hasn't been 12 years of communal software development at this
level. What there has been suggests to me that a better approach is to
spend 5% of the time implementing it as quickly as possible. 65% of
the time arguing about why the implementation sucks, 20% of the time on
abortive reimplementations and then 10% on doing it better.
This 10% is then the leading 5% for the next iteration.

The MouseRemote support is no better or worse than the support for
other not-very-mouselike things that are already in there. If you have
time to design and implement a better, generic "input class" structure,
be our guest.

Care to discuss your design? Having planned it all for Randall in the
original MouseRemote design discussion, I've actually covered most of
the issues already, and I'd be interested both in hearing what you were
planning as well as sharing my work.
> As for moused being a flexible modular daemon I disagree.
I didn't say it was, I said it was amenable to being made that way.

No but it would have been the right thing, now we have to defend moused
against every crude hack that comes along, because of precedence :(
It wouldn't have been THAT hard to do it right to begin with.
I'm still saying its wrong, and bad engineering....

Is not ready for public review however if you are interested where
I am getting my inspiration , feel free to browse:
http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/ACE.html
and it JAVA counterpart:
http://www.cs.wustl.edu/~schmidt/JACE.html
Lots of cool stuff there to build a flexible and dynamically configurable

I tried; ask Randall. Given the alternatives (insist on purity and get
nothing or accept what we're given for now and push for better later),
I felt that something was better than nothing.

No problem and I am actually having a good time at it.
---------------
Say Randall, can you pretty please approach the XFree86 team
to see if they can somehow fold in the X10 remote mouse support
into the X server .
Cheers,
Amancio

Right now, there is no way I can get the remote output that moused gives
to /var/run/MouseRemote, and still run other mice on moused, AND
having the remote's mouse functions disabled.
The mouse remote's rf receiver gets far too much interference and causes
my mouse pointer to jump around and buttons to be pressed randomly. The
remote is uesless without turning off the mouse support.
To solve this problem either add an option to moused to turn off mouse
messages (and rename moused to something better), or use the model I
suggested using remoted that splits mouse and remote events.
Randall has expierenced the problems I'm getting, and I assume most
others that have this remote do too. This is not a feature that '[isnt]
worth the effort', its a mandatory feature for functionality.

Just switch off the remote mouse at its junction box --- there is
a little switch so use it.
I am not sure that the remote mouse has any software functionality to
disable itself .

Hmm.. Do you have shared memory installed on your system?
I know Quake 2 uses shared mem when in X11 mode, and possibly uses it for GL
rendering..

Well, you can use the Linux ones..
They run fine under emulation, of course this means if you want to do
developement for it you have to install the linux_devel port, and compile with
that.
But hey it actually works, since I have Quake 1 & 2 running on my machine :)

Just for more info:
-I am just trying to get it working on X11, not GL-Quake.
-I have tried specifying "+set vid_ref softx", but that didn't help.
-I updated my -current again recently (Fri. 6/19), but that didn't
help either. I didn't really think it would.
-If it helps, while my xterm says "bad system call", the console

Thanks.

OK... Do you have a sound card in your computer? If you don't, then Q2 won't
work (!) The q2test works fine, but the full game doesn't..

Hi,
Here is a nice web page explaining how to get Quake and Quake 2 going
on FreeBSD:
http://www.schrade.com/sanctum/freebsd/
My original notes on how to get Quake2 going:
ftp://rah.star-gate.com/pub/README.GLQUAKE
The web site supercedes my notes.
Have Fun,
Amancio

Hmm.. another thing.. My Linux emulator was compiled from source checked out
on the 28th of April 1998, so you might want to try that (ie just recompile
the Linux LKM - tho that might break, I'm not sure)

Greg,
Can you run ktrace ./quake2
kdump -m 80 >quake.trace
and towards the end of the file try to find the offending system call.
Tnks,

Just be careful where you take this one; it's a sliding scale of greys
from everything standalone (which for the cascaded MouseRemote case
would reek) through to Streams in user-space.
It seems that Amancio has again abandoned his "solution" partway, so
let me elaborate on a stacked pointer-interface model which I
originally devised to deal with Randall's original suggestion. It owes
a little to Streams and a lot to dlopen().
In the new model, moused serves as a framework for modules related to
auxiliary input devices, specifically those whose operational domain
may overlap that of the primary pointing device. This should primarily
involve managing a single input source, which may have more than one
layer of protocol embedded within it.
A combination of manual and automatic configuration serves to build a
stack of processing modules. Configuration would include active
discovery (COM PnP, traditional mouse probes, perhaps delayed
protocol-sensitive determination - the first two we have, the third
might serve as an elaborate technique for avoiding manual
configuration). Modules are, naturally, separate objects dynamically
loaded and unloaded as required.
Protocol data are passed into the top of the stack, where it ripples
down, and is possibly passed out sideways either to a module-specific
endpoint or to the standard 'pointer event stream' which is consolidated
and passed to the console driver (etc.) as it is currently.
This is a highly generalised design, and one which would facilitate the
rapid production of new modules to handle auxiliary input devices. It
is, of course, overkill in the current situation.

Drivers should, as a general rule, cater to hardware that is working
correctly. If you have a decent general-purpose heuristic that helps
with a given failure mode, that's one thing, but attempting to kluge
around hardware that is failing in a completely random fashion is
pointless.
If you want the split, we can talk about the modular architecture I
originally proposed, presuming of course that you're interested in
discussing or implementing it.

Boy, Mike you belong on the Press 8)
I am working on a daemon however I still think that fxtv should gets
its mouse support from the X server and not necessarily from a
moused thingy 8)

If there's a mechanism for passing abstract/custom (non-mouse,
non-keyboard) events in to the server where they may be discarded or
consumed at the whim of a requesting application, sure.
Bear in mind that the MouseRemote pipe is for MouseRemote controls only,
not "normal" mouse events.

Actually, one of the models I am contemplating is user Space Streams 8)
Again, as Michael has stated these types of architectures are an overkill
for the case of the moused daemon however it can pave the way for
what I hope exciting new daemon type services.
This is a short code snippet from JACE's BufferStreamTest.java and with
JACE's ASX we can exploit very easily prioritized messages.
// Spawn off a new thread.
public class BufferStreamTest
{
public static void main (String args[])
{
// Control hierachically-related active objects
Stream stream = new Stream ();
Module pm = new Module ("Consumer", new Consumer (), null, null);
Module cm = new Module ("Producer", new Producer (), null, null);
// Create Producer and Consumer Modules and push them onto the
// STREAM. All processing is performed in the STREAM.
if (stream.push (pm) == -1)
{
ACE.ERROR ("push");
return;
}
else if (stream.push (cm) == -1)
{
ACE.ERROR ("push");
return;
}
}
}

I have been trying to get RealAudio encoder to work but no success,
raencoder always coredump on live input.
When I run 'raencoder -l line -o outfile -T 1:00' it coredumps just the
way it does if I run 'raencoder -Z config.file -o outfile -l line', but
leaving out the '-l line' the encoder runs ok.

I have no idea what these events might be (I haven't been following this
very closely), but if they are generated by an input device and don't
really match the standard pointer or keyboard then maybe the XInput
extension might be useful at the X server end?

I think that we can map the X10 remote mouse events to anything
that we want for the sake of general X event handling
it would be nice if we can map the mouse events to X events however
I am not so sure given that we have support for only one IR
unit or rather a mouse with more than 15 buttons so lets just
say many buttons 8)
Randall has done the hard part which is decoding the mouse events
from the X10 Remote Mouse since Randall wrote the decoding routine
I am sure he can elaborate on the protocol. If you are interested
in following the code it is available in -current's moused.c or
if you like I can mail you moused.c
Tnks!

The X protocol imposes some limits on the core input devices (keyboard
and pointer). The core pointer can have no more than five buttons, and
only X and Y movement. The core keyboard can have up to 247 (or 248)
keys. These are hard limits imposed by the client/server communcation
protocol.
The XInput extension extends considerably what sort of events an input
device can generate, but of course for a client to use them it must
be XInput-aware.

To be honest, I don't have the time to be interested in the details
at the moment. I was just suggesting that if you want to deal with
this using X events it might be worth taking a look at the XInput
extension to see if it will allow the sort of things you want (and I
don't really know if it will or not). XFree86 3.3.2 does have some
XInput device support currently for some tablets, a touch screen and a
joystick.
The XFree86 mouse code is currently maintained by Kazutaka Yokata
(who was already on the CC list). If XInput looks like it might be
useful and you want to follow it up, I can put you in touch with one of
the people who maintains our XInput support.

Should we be sending the FCC numbers of the Bt848 cards to
Amancio?
Most PC hardware has the FCC approval number on.
>From the FCC web site, it is possible to search the FCC database
on this number and find the Manufacturer and their Address.
This may help with some of the no-name Bt848 cards and make it
easier to suggest tuner defaults.

For the bt848 card identification effort, I've put the details of one
of my Dual Crystal cards below.
Although it is currently detected fine by the driver, this will
help if a move is made to the new card signture method.
Notes:
The i2c bus reposnds to all i2c addresses with 0.
(hence my function check_for_i2c_devices() in the bt848 driver)
1. Brand
VideoLogic Captivator PCI
Silk Screen says PV-BT848 (Rev 2F)
Label says PV93B-A/W8729
No FCC number.
Contains both 35.4 and 28.6 crystals
Chip is Bt949AKPF
2. Tuner component part number
NONE - Tunerless
3. output of fxtv-0.47 -debug startup
> fxtv -debug startup
Warning: locale not supported by C library, locale unchanged
Fxtv v0.47
DETECTED CAPTURE CARD(S) [DRIVER PROBES]:

Does anyone have the PC with multiple(2,3, or 4...) Bt848 Cards?
I am now planning the following PC.
CPU: Pentium II 400MHz
Mem: 128MB or ....
Bt848: Wincast/TV x (?)
I want to have Bt848(or 849) cards as many as possile.
And I am planning the watching multiple TV channels at the same time.
(Although I'm not sure that multiple processes can treat DGA mode
at the same time...)
If there is anyone, I wait for your advise.

I suspect that this won't work well due to too little bandwidth on the
PCI bus, but I'm not certain. I'd be surprised if more than 2 cards
work at the same time as your harddisk.

Yup, Soundblaster. dmesg and some audio ports (splay, timidity,

kdump produces a 2.5 MB file, so I'm hoping this is all you need.
I guess the last two lines of the file are the ones. Here's 10

I have an SB16 that I use with FreeBSD daily. All Making it work required
was editing sound_config.h (as the LINT kernel directs you to do),
building the kernel with the appropriate controller and device directives,
and doing a MAKEDEV in /dev once the new kernel was in place.

Yes. I have 3 Bt848 cards in my machine.
1 Hauppauge WinTV card
2 Videologic Captivator PCI cards.
> And I am planning the watching multiple TV channels at the same time.
Make sure you get three identical cards as the bt848 driver
assumes all Bt848 cards have the same make of tuner.
I only use cameras so the tuner type did not matter to me.

The new version of FXTV supports multiple Bt848 cards and they can
both do DGA at the same time from what I can remember.
use the fxtv -deviceNumber 0 and
fxtv -deviceNumber 1 settings.

I did take a quick look at the web page suggested by Amancio. Looks
like my problem is that I had COMPAT_LINUX in my kernel. It seems
to be working now.

Along that same line of thought, how about multiple sound cards? Looking
at /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/sound/pcm86.c doesn't suggest the driver is
structured for more than one card per system. Additionally this appears
to drive a nail in the multi-card coffin for pcm:
/* PC-9801-86 specific constants */
#define PCM86_IOBASE 0xa460 /* PCM I/O ports */
Possibly there are other cards which might support more than one per
system? /dev/MAKEDEV is structured correctly for multiple sound cards.
The idea being tossed around at work is to link sites with up to 8
conference sessions using vat but rather than place up to 40 vat systems
(one per user) at a site we'd like just one system per site with all 8
sessions statically started, connected to an analog switch matrix
allowing the users to select their desired conference as needed.
If i can't get multiple sound channels out of one box, then I'll need up
to 8 boxes.
The other head scratcher: can left and right channels of a sound card
(input and output) be treated independently? See where I'm going? One
vat conference on the left channel, another on the right, cut the sound
card count in half.
Another alternative would involve a number of really small diskless, no
monitor, no keyboard, "embedded" FreeBSD boxes, one per user. Needs
sound card and ethernet. Customized vat. Probably read the user's
"channel" switch thru a parallel printer port. I like this solution best
but there is a space problem and an analog audio distribution network
already exists.

Dear roger,
Thank you for your comment.
And I have a question.
roger> Make sure you get three identical cards as the bt848 driver
roger> assumes all Bt848 cards have the same make of tuner.
roger> I only use cameras so the tuner type did not matter to me.
Why?
When there are 3 (bt848 + Tuner) Cards, aren't there 3 bktr devices
and there tuner(? sorry I'm not sure exactly) devices?
And we can tune there 3 tuners individually, can't we?

Sure, presuming that there is a way to get these events into the X
server, and out again into the application. First blush suggests that
this is nontrivial, and requires changing the X server. Ick.

Not with OVERRIDE_TUNER or the sysctl's. It works if your card is
correctly auto-detected.

Currently, there is a small deficiency in the bt848 driver when it fails
to recognized the tuner properly however if the driver recognizes the
tuners then there is no problem with the driver talking to 3 different
tuners.

Amancio

The MIDI port shouldn't have a DRQ, and the SB16 should.
This is what my old voxware setup looked like in my kernel:
device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 vector sbintr
device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5
device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330
device opl0 at isa? port 0x388
All you need to do is substitute drq 3 for dr5 on the sbxvi line to get it
running properly.

I noted this to Luigi at USENIX so hopefully we can get this thing fixed
before 3.0. There's a comparison in MAKEDEV that applies only for the
VoxWare case but not for the pcm driver.

My config was for an original AWE32, which was a SB16+ASP with the EMU6000
hanging off the back. The original was before PnP.

I don't know how I lost track of my attempts to solve my
"bad system call" problem with Quake2, but my previous post
suggested that all I needed to do was unpack the Quake sources and
remove COMPAT_LINUX from my kernel. That is not true. I also needed
to apply linux.diffs.tar.gz from http://www.schrade.com/sanctum/freebsd.
One hunk did not apply cleanly to my -current sources from Fri.
6/19, but I tried running Quake2 anyway, and it seems to be
working. Just wanted to clear that up.
As usual, the FreeBSD lists were very helpful. Special thanks to
Amancio Hasty and Daniel O'Connor for their help.
Now, if I only had adequate hardware to run this game.
Hmmm. Makes me think about buying some stuff.
Take care all.

You could use multiple sound cards per system. Some cards support this.

Ok, which cards? Its important that not only is each card selectable,
but all cards have to be able to be usable at the same time. There has
been some discussion that Sound Blaster sometimes can barely do full
duplex under the right conditions. So its not hard to believe two Sound
Blasters in one machine won't perform.
Only sound (voice) in/out is required, no synthesis.
One might guess a new PCI sound card would work. But it appears at least
some are emulating ISA on PCI, eliminating the advantages of PCI.

Hi,
COMPAT_LINUX is used to include the linux emulation layer in the kernel.
In this scenario what the users need to know is that after updating or
modifying the linux layer they need to rebuild the kernel, install
install it and reboot.

Changing the board to a Miro PCTV suddenly solve the audio problem...
Recognized at the first hit, no problem since now...
Finally I can stop to see only b/w film of the twenties (which haven't
the audio at all :-)
If Amancio needs info of this board too (PCTV) I can send them to him
...
Thanks again to everyone...

I'm looking to purchase a video capture board for use in a FreeBSD box.
This board will be used to grap real-time images from a video player for
storage on a file system (for subsequent image manipulation).
I've done some searching and found the following boards:
STB TVPCI
MiroMEDIA PCTV
Hauppauge WinTV
Does anyone know if any/all of these boards will work under FreeBSD 3.0?
Thanks,
-A.

All of these are supposed to work; you can certainly get all them to
work with a little twiddling.
I have a MiroMEDIA PCTV which works out of the box. However, there is
not support for the "Pro" part yet (NICAM + radio). I've been probing
to get this area working, but there is nothing solid yet (and I won't
set a deadline for when I'll be finished - too much to do on other
fronts).

The latest Glide stuff for Linux has support for Voodoo Rush and an X server
for the Rush as well. Sources to the X server are available. Also the new
glide stuff supports /dev/3dfx, and has sources for the Linux kernel driver.
Anyone wanting to do the port? Check out the following URL -

Hmm, are you sure one doesn't need the SDK to compile/link the Xserver??
I think we still need the Glide libs to do this...
If everything is there - get me a 3dfx card :)

Hmm... given the application you are looking (basically providing some
sort of analog-voice circuit to digital bridge perhaps you could look
at some of the brooktrout type cards that can take 4/8 pstn/analog
voice circuits etc... these babies are used for voicemail systems and
the like and are designed to do the grunty stuff..
We have a old 486dx33 running OS/2 1.2 (no gui) with 4 of these cards
giving 16 voice circuits access to voicemail .. it does all the PCM stuff
and the 300mb drive can store hours and hours of messages...

Hey all - on an SMP current box as of 6/15/98 running Luigi's pcm sound
driver, game sounds seem to be about 15 seconds behind the screen updates.
This happens on xgal and on doom.
The sound card is a CS4236 I believe - built in to my motherboard.
Any help?
Thanks...

committed uses a single fd, and a locally patched brooktree driver).
Good suggestion, so I will try to come up with a fix in the next
few days, if someone does not beat me (the fix is trivial, just
need to do a second open on the tuner device; the only annoying
part is mapping /dev/bktr%d into /dev/tuner%d ).
In the meantime, can people try out the x11 grabber and tell me how it
works and if they have suggestions on how to improve it (or even better
implement things :)
One of the nice app of the x11 grabber i did last month was the
following:
+==========================+
H H
H Netscape H
+==========================+
H H
H web document H
H H
H H
H H
H tvtvtv H
H tvtvtv H
H tvtvtv H
H H
+==========================+
and have the grabber transmit both the window "web document" and the
small "tv" window showing live video (80x60 or so).
I guess i'll have to make the grabber to work with magicpoint as
well...
cheers

Can't speak to which ones. Joao Carlos Mendes Luis <jonny@coppe.ufrj.br>
is one of the folks (or "the" folk) that asked for soundcard selectability,
so you might buzz him.
Really, you don't even need a soundcard unless you want to digitize the
incoming audio, or you want to use a soundcard mixer control to adjust the
volume. The TV cards (mine at least) kick out std line impedance audio so
you can plug that into your stereo directly if desired or an external audio
mixer/multiplexer.

All should. I see Eivind spoke up for the Miro. The STB and Hauppauge are
also well supported as they were the second and third cards that the driver
supported (after the Intel SVR3).
Based on past posts to this list, the Hauppauge is the better quality board
of the two. That's what I have (Hauppauge Wincast TV/dbx) and works fine
on FBSD3.0.

Hi,
i've purchased a second hand MiroMedia PCTV card, which runs smoothly
with 2.2.6-STABLE.
With the card i also got MiroMedia remote, which is a remote control
module that connects to a serial port and seems to be similar to what
i know of the X10 remote control unit (except that the X10 module
seems to be based on radio, not on infrared as miroMedia remote is ).
Anyone knows/uses this product or got further details on it ?
bye, alex

After installing fxtv v. 0.47 and the latest bktr driver on my FreeBSD
2.2.6 system, I get good video but absolutely no audio.
I'm using Forefront Technology's OSS audio system with an Audio PCI card
and haven't had any other sound related problems.
The TV card is the one that Gateway OEMs -- Windows lists it as an STB
card with no information about the tuner. I have to manually override
the card & tuner settings, using "STB" for the card and "PHILLIPS-NTSC"
for the tuner. (BTW, when I don't override the settings, bktr0
erroneously detects my card as an Intel card and can't determine the
tuner).
I've tried all the card and tuner settings, anyway, with no luck on the
audio. There is no line out jack on this TV card -- it's connected inside
the box to the on-motherboard AudioPCI. Also made sure all my mixer
settings were set high (including 'video' and 'line1'...)
Does anyone have any suggestions?? I'm more than willing to experiment
but I just don't know that much about device drivers...
Thanks a lot!!

Hello, I'm Nozomu Matsui, Master Student of KEIO University.
Now, I'm trying to update bt848 driver(to bt848.980519.tgz). But this
archieve files doesn't include "opt_bktr.h" files required by
brooktrr848.c.
I've searching this file, but I can't get yet.
I hope you to teach the place, please.

Nozomu,
To generate opt_bktr.h you need to add the following line
to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/options.i386
BROOKTREE_SYSTEM_DEFAULT opt_bktr.h

For this application we are looking for up to 8 channels of in/out, all
running at once. The Brooktrout reference somebody provided appears to
be our best option to date. At the moment someone else is digging up the
particulars as to how much the Brooktrout solution costs.

First and most important, you MUST use Luigi's driver, pcm, and
avoid voxware.
Using his driver, I think that any combination supported by the
hardware is possible. In particular, I have a GUS PnP and a SB16
in my home machine:
...
Probing for PnP devices:
CSN 1 Vendor ID: GRV0001 [0x0100561e] Serial 0xffffffff
mss_attach <GusPnP>1 at 0x348 irq 5 dma 3:7 flags 0x17
pcm1 (GusPnP <GusPnP> sn 0xffffffff) at 0x348 irq 5 drq 3 flags 0x17 id 16
Probing for devices on the ISA bus:
...
sio1: type 16550A
pcm0 at 0x220 irq 7 drq 1 flags 0x15 on isa
aha0 at 0x334-0x337 irq 11 drq 6 on isa
...
My biggest problem was to find a good combination of DRQs and IRQs.
To finally achieve a result, I had to overlap IRQ7 between SB16 and
lpt0. In FreeBSD, lpt0 is registered without interrupts. In
DOS/Winblows, I must not play a sound on the SB16 while printing. :)

Hi folks,
I have had a couple of GUS MAX's for ages. I don't often use them
so I can't say when support for them broke, but the 2.2.6 voxware drivers
seem to be pretty broken.
I can throw the boards in a windoze PC and make them work, but
under 2.2.6 I get no sound and some syslog messages. Here's the snippet
from the syslog:
> gus0 at 0x220 irq 12 drq 6 flags 0x3 on isa
> gus0: <Gravis UltraSound 2.4 (512k)>
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
> isa_dmastart: channel 6 not acquired
The isa_dmastart messages occur everytime I try to cat an .au file
to /dev/audio. I looked into the sound dirver source and it looks like
the above message was meant to be included in a "#ifdef DIAGNOSTICS"
section. In fact the driver doesn't appear to acquire the DMA chanel at
all. The only acquired ISA DMA channel on my system is the floppy, drq
2.
Has anyone gont a MAX working under 2.2.6?

Possibly a wrong combination of drq and flags (should not the dma
channel be 0, 1, or 3?)
> Has anyone gont a MAX working under 2.2.6?
Mine works under -current:
gus0 at 0x220 irq 11 drq 6 on isa
snd0: <GUS MAX (CS4231A)> snd0: <Gravis UltraSound MAX (512k)>
You may also need "option NOGUSPNP" in your config file.

I'll try this tonight.
I am a little concearned that my cards probe as UltraSound's
instead of MAX's. Could you send me your kernel config entry?

Hi all.
I've been thinking about an improvement to the bt848 driver.
The same could be made to the meteor driver too.
I'd like to grab from a sub-section of the video image.
This allows the software pan and zoom functions you can get with
a fixed camera with a wide angle lense.
Currently, the bt848 driver captures the full NTSC (or PAL) image
and scales it down to the desired image size, say 192x128 pixels.
+----------+
|aaaaaaaaaa|
|aaaaaaaaaa| to +---+ FULL NTSC to 192x128
|aaaaaaaaaa| |aaa|
|bbbbbbbbbb| |bbb|
|bbbbbbbbbb| +---+
|bbbbbbbbbb|
+----------+
I would like to grab a sub-portion of the NTSC (or PAL) window
and optionally scale that.
So, I could grab a real 192x128 chunk from say the bottom left corner of
the video image.
+----------+
|aaaaaaaaaa|
|b+--+ bbbb| to +---+ SMALL WINDOW FROM NTSC to 192x128
|c|cc| cccc| |ccc|
|d+--+ dddd| +---+
|eeeeeeeeee|
+----------+
Now all these things can be performed by grabbing a full image and
then copying the parts you need. However, the hardware still
has to cope with moving a full video image around.
For the bt848 this needs some new IOCTLS and changes to the
dma_progs.
Any comments on this?

Still no go. Has anyone been using the MAX under 2.2.6 instead of
-current? I think I may just throw in a SB16 for the next few months.
The GUS support under 2.2.6 looks like it has problems. In any
case, as I read the code, the isa_dmastart message is going to happen 100%
of the time whether things are working or not. isa_dmaacquire is never
called.
thanks,
Adrian

Actually, remember, the mremap() syscall? This is the one tripping up
Quake 2; someone posted a fix, and since then I've spent the time hand-patching
it into my source tree after any linux emu change; don't you think it
would be nice to put this into the tree permanently?

I think it sounds like a good capability to use, if it can be done
without totally re-structuring the driver (or you're offering to both
do the work and coordinate with everybody else that work on the driver
:-)

These aren't a "full" mremap implementation by any stretch of the
imagination, but they probably should be committed as a bandaid.

Okay, I don't really understand FreeBSD's underlying structure as much as
I'd like yet, and namely I'm working on figuring out syscalls (and ioctl
;) now; I don't proclaim to know whether these patches will completely
implement mremap or not, but at least it seems to provide the ability to
run one more Linux app correctly, so barring any huge problems with these
patches, I think that we should try them out (after all, deltas can always
be backed out".

Hi,
I just put a brand-new Hauppauge WinTV Model 401 into my
FreeBSD box. It has a TV tuner, dbx, and FM.
Unfortunately, it is not detected by bktr_probe().
Oddly enough, the reported device ID does not match the 848 or 849:
found-> vendor=0x109e, dev=0x036e, revid=0x02
class=04-00-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=1
intpin=a, irq=3
map[0]: type 3, range 32, base fedfe000, size 12
found-> vendor=0x109e, dev=0x0878, revid=0x02
class=04-80-00, hdrtype=0x00, mfdev=1
intpin=a, irq=3
map[0]: type 3, range 32, base fedfd000, size 12
I'm not sure how to proceed here ... does anyone know what
those device IDs represent?

This functionaly should not be difficult to add to the driver and
to be honest it is surprising that it is not there . I will
think over this feature over the weekend and hopefully Roger
will beat this old programmer to it 8)

Subject: More SB16 woes
Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG
Precedence: bulk

Doug,
I took your advice about using DRQ 5 for sbxvi0, and at first it
worked adequately. Most MIDI and WAV files played properly, though
RealAudio in 16bit mode was never even close.
Unfortunately my success was short lived. As it turned out,
some random MIDI files, when played through the MIDI to WAV converter
`timidity', knocked my SB16 out of commission. The result is loud
white noise coming through my speakers. Furthermore, from that
point on, when I played anything else through /dev/dsp, I still
got white noise. No messages from the sound driver (Voxware)
appeared on the root console, either.
I tried a simple reboot, but that didn't work. Completely shutting
down my computer and restarting also didn't work. I still got the
white noise. Then, I tried booting under Windows95 and running a few
test MIDI and WAV files. That seemed to work, as a warm boot to FreeBSD
made the sound work again.
I began playing some MIDI files again through `timidity', but after
a while, the same problem happened again. I went through the same Win95
reboot, sound check, and warm boot to FreeBSD, and got it working again.
Then, another MIDI file knocked the SB16 card out again. This time,
though, the previously mentioned methods did not work. Furthermore,
despite having the "proper" DRQ 5 setting, I once again got those
DMA/IRQ timeouts.
Then, I re-compiled the kernel, reconfiguring it so that I don't
have to manually boot into -c config to set "drq sbxvi0 5," and things
seemed to work again. Then, once again, a midi file started giving me
white noise.
Any way, strangely, randomly trying different timidity files,
the sound card all of a sudden would correct itself and play fine. On
several occasions, I would play a tune and get white noise, and I
just kept playing and eventually it corrected itself.
But then it went bad again, and I think I can't get it to work
this time. To make a long story short, it appears that the
Voxware sound driver with SB is unreliable, making any serious attempt
to incorporate sound on my desktop mute.
I doubt its a hardware problem, since this is my second SB16,
and am not likely to believe lightning strikes twice. In fact, I'm
beginning to suspect there was nothing wrong with the first SB card.
I know Luigi isn't a big fan of SB16, and I'm sure there is a good
reason for it. But it is not "physically damaged" in such a way that
it can't be made to work, and I cannot responsibly just keep buying
expensive hardware every time someone declares it brain-damaged,
validly or not. So its either this SB16 or bust.
I don't know if there's anything anybody can do about this
conundrum of mine. Any help would be appreciated, but if not, at least
I offer this as informational testimony to not buying a SB :)

(maybe people in -current is interested... i have Bcc-ed to
multimedia as well)
i have spent a few hours on mgp, found a few bugs, and implemented
a new feature which I find extremely useful. In a separate mail
will post some suggestions for possible extensions:
BUGS:
* the check for ".ps" in ispsfilename() looked for the last 4
char instead of 3 (fixed)
* running a process on the last page results in the process being
killed immediately. I have no idea on how to fix this.
* %tab N will likely result in a coredump if N >= MAXTAB (32)
(easy fix in grammar.y, did not bother though)
NEW FEATURE
* I have extended the "tab" attribute to define styles with names
instead of numbers, e.g.
%tab style_name center, ...
The style can be invoked by starting the line with &style_name
instead of a set of tabs. This is implemented by extending the
tab_control[] array with MAXSTYLE fields dedicated to the new styles
(max 100 currently, but it is a compile-time option that can be made
larger if necessary).
This is not as flexible as a global macro definition but I don't
know better...
Diffs attached. Itojun, do you think we can update the port or apply
the change directly to the distribution ?
cheers
luigi

The downside unfortunately is interlacing. If you grab say, 320x240
(from an NTSC source), you typically grab only the even (or odd)
fields, and don't get interlace artifacts. If you grab 320x240 as a
subsection of the 640x480 (or PAL) image, you get interlace artifacts
because you need to grab both fields. Thus it will look worse that
the scaled video and these artifacts also adversely affect most video
codecs.
Cheers,
Mark

Hi,
If I try the obvious fix (make the probe succeed by handling device=0x0878),
i2cRead fails. It appears to hang, but I believe it is sitting
in this loop waiting for an interrupt:
/* wait for completion */
for ( x = 0x7fffffff; x; --x ) { /* safety valve */
if ( bt848->int_stat & BT848_INT_I2CDONE )
break;
}
I haven't had the patience to wait more then a minute or so at this
point, since I figure it'll try the i2cRead 127 more times anyway. :-)

I'm trying to use the CDwrite utility taht is in ports, and the interface
looks great, except it is too long for my screen. I have my "window" set
such that it is small enough that most ppl complain about not being able
to read it, yet if I go into the 'mkisofs' utility inside of cd-write, I
can't see the bottom...where I *think* is the button to press to actually
do the image?
Anyone else have this problem, or is it just something I've setup wrong
for cd-write itself?
Thanks...

I'm still working with an old 15" monitor :( Need to upgrade it
one of these days when I can afford it...would it be possible to give a
scroll bar on the side of that window? I don't imagine that everyone has
the capabilities of runnign 1280x1024, and this gives me one less reason
to have to boot in to Win95, and image there are others that feel similar
:)

Run your X display in 1280x1024 (or use a virtual of that size) :-)
but in any case you must be able to move the window so that the bottom
become visible?
