Each card alone (AudioPCI/ES1370 vs ASUS SC200/NCR53c810) works fine, but both of them operating make the ncr driver hang. Example: play some mp3, then do something with lots of disk i/o like cvsup and sooner or later nothing like the red controller activity LED works.

It works. Yuhu! Got the patch and used DAP and succeeded immediatedly recording from line input with my SB PCI128 (es1371). Sound quality seems to be quiet nice. Did not make any changes to DAP, because DAP doesn't crash any more since es1371-4.src3.patch. Unfortunatedly I encountered another problem: I wasn't able to change the LINE input's VOLUME.

Well, the ata driver findes and probes DVD drives just fine, you can use them as well, but there is no UDF filesystem in FreeBSD (yet), and there is no special ioctl's for dealing with DVD specific things..

Likewise, the SCSI CD driver can deal with read-only DVDs just fine. Dealing with rewriteable DVD's is a little different, and requires write support in the CD driver.

Whatever we do, we should try to make sure we have a common set of ioctls between the ATAPI and SCSI CD drivers.

Same names, the numbers etc may have to vary to avoid clashes (havn't checked) but the code that actually does the stuff wont be the same, so I dont see how it should bring in any GPL'd stuff, in fact I'll make damn sure it doesn't :) -Soren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Oct 27 2:45:48 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from fleming.cs.strath.ac.uk (fleming.cs.strath.ac.uk [130.159.196.126]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 108CA14BEB for ; Wed, 27 Oct 1999 02:45:45 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from roger@cs.strath.ac.uk) Received: from muir-10 (roger@muir-10.cs.strath.ac.uk [130.159.148.10]) by fleming.cs.strath.ac.uk (8.8.8/8.8.8) with SMTP id KAA04333 Wed, 27 Oct 1999 10:45:42 +0100 (BST) Message-ID: <3816C9C5.167E@cs.strath.ac.uk> Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 10:45:41 +0100 From: Roger Hardiman Organization: University of Strathclyde X-Mailer: Mozilla 3.04Gold (X11; I; OSF1 V4.0 alpha) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Randall Hopper Cc: multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Fxtv 1.01 References: <19991026220208.A9704@ipass.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Randall, Multimedia, I've updated FXTV in the ports tree FXTV 1.01.

I'm not sure exactly why these aren't working. Are you using the precompiled packages, or did you build them from the ports collection? You might try rebuilding them, now that you have the AWE driver installed. For MIDI playback, the awemidi port is your best bet, as it's specifically intended for the AWE. You'll want to get the awesfx port as well, to enable loading wave files to the card. Follow the links on my home page below under the section on setting up the AWE. -- Conrad Sabatier http://members.home.net/conrads/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Oct 27 19:57:19 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from picnic.mat.net (picnic.mat.net [206.246.122.133]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id F3DD214CAD for ; Wed, 27 Oct 1999 19:57:15 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from chuckr@picnic.mat.net) Received: from localhost (chuckr@localhost [127.0.0.1]) by picnic.mat.net (8.9.3/8.9.3) with ESMTP id WAA17038; Wed, 27 Oct 1999 22:56:37 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from chuckr@picnic.mat.net) Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 22:56:37 -0400 (EDT) From: Chuck Robey To: Roger Hardiman Cc: Randall Hopper , multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Fxtv 1.01 In-Reply-To: <3816C9C5.167E@cs.strath.ac.uk> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On Wed, 27 Oct 1999, Roger Hardiman wrote: > Randall, Multimedia, > > I've updated FXTV in the ports tree FXTV 1.01.

But adding jpeg using libjpeg > isn't that big deal. I've got a quick and dirty script using Roger's grab, plus cjpeg to turn the file into jpeg, to run a webcam. When I get some time (hah!) I'm planning to tidy it up and make a port of it or something. You can see the end result at http://www.outpost.co.nz/webcam/ and watch a video editor at work (maybe). The view will get better when we move a temporarily placed office partition. I'd like to make a single C program that uses libjpeg to output a suitable file for a web page, plus look at using a continuous video stream from the bktr driver rather than the single frame grabs, which as you'll notice from our webcam results in some image stability problems. Running fxtv with the same video source does not display any instability so it seems to be something particular to the freeze frame ioctl call. BTW the same machine is providing a live realaudio feed of our local student radio station, using the linux RealProducer Plus and the OSS sound drivers. The machine's got an ESS1868 sound card and I couldn't get RealProducer Plus to work with the standard snd0 or pcm0 driver. Listen to student radio at http://www.outpost.co.nz/partycam/radiomassey.html, but be aware that this is currently only a temporary arrangement so please don't add any permanent links to webpages (I just needed an audio source for testing last week).

I do not have a solution, but another suggestion. If you read the README for the DiskOnChip driver (a solid state flash disk) in /usr/src/sys/contrib/dev/fla/README it mentions how certain SCSI controllers clash with the Disk On Chip which takes an 8k block of memory in the bit between 640k and 1 Meg. My Disk on Chip takes a block of memory from 0xdc00 onwards. Anyway, this is just a thought. (Be carefull not to confuse memory blocks with Port addresses, which are in a different address space.)

Unfortunatly I do not have a fix yet. Best option is to limit grab sizes to less than half the TV resolution. For PAL, grab images less than 288 pixels high. For NTSC grab images less than 240 pixels high. This removes the interlacing (jagged edges) problems.

Something like overlapping buffers? I will keep this in mind. Thank you. I always thought that both cards are very common cards and thus am a bit frustrated why I never saw someone else having this problem. So far Stefan Esser told me his opinion that the Ensoniq driver might be too agressive. But that does not give me any clue how to debug that one.. hope that PCI book I ordered gets here soon.. :) Regards, Marc To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Thu Oct 28 16:12:56 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from pluto.ipass.net (pluto.ipass.net [198.79.53.5]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0920C14BDB for ; Thu, 28 Oct 1999 16:12:53 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from rhh@ipass.net) Received: from stealth.ipass.net.

Does it control, or get controlled? What changes? Before it's checked in, folks can only get the port from my site and it doesn't get put on future FreeBSD distribution CDs. After it's checked in, folks can get the port here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/ports-*/graphics/fxtv/* and from the ftp mirrors, when it propagates. Also, the port and package for the new version get built and put on future FreeBSD CDs, instead of the old version. And ports collection CVSupers get the updates I believe. Also, and I'm not real sure about this, but I think the package is mirrored to: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/distfiles so folks can fetch and build fxtv from the port, even when my ISP's web server is down. I'm not sure if this happens automagically though.

I was the one who initiated the DVD authentication thread on -current. The DVD authentication scheme is disgusting enough in itself that the syntactic sugar that the linux driver imposes for authentication is not much of an improvement, in my opinion. The authentication process involves traveling through several "states", and going from one state to another depends on whether certain commands/challenges succeeded or not. Their approach seems to have the kernel change an "authentication state" variable in some commands, and the user change it in others, when the user could easily do it for all commands by noticing if ioctls succeeded or not. Maybe there's some true logic behind their approach, but it left me slightly befuddled. Authentication is a delicate dance, certain steps (commands) of which could conceivably be used in a different way in later DVD drive specifications (if they add more copyright mechanisms for newer drives, for example), so my suggestion is, if support gets added to the kernel, to just mirror the corresponding (Mt. Fuji) packet commands using ioctls in some straightforward way, and let the application take care of the rest. That's what I did; it requires more work to port Linux applications, but that's only for the small set of applications that need to perform authentication; everything else should presumably be done through the file system (be it CD9660 or UDF). Ob. multimedia ref.: I did watch 2 minutes of A Bug's Life last night, but don't tell anyone. :) This is using css-auth and NIST (both obtained from livid.on.openprojects.net), and my kernel patches, a 100% pure FreeBSD compile. No sound yet however. The process is not yet stable enough to document, but that should come in time. -syam To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Fri Oct 29 13:59:48 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from lab12.ie.pitt.edu (lab12.ie.pitt.edu [136.142.89.102]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 1552B150E6 for ; Fri, 29 Oct 1999 13:59:35 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grafe@lab12.ie.pitt.edu) Received: (from grafe@localhost) by lab12.ie.pitt.edu (8.8.8+Sun/8.8.8) id QAA23842 for freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org; Fri, 29 Oct 1999 16:59:30 -0400 (EDT) Date: Fri, 29 Oct 1999 16:59:30 -0400 (EDT) Message-Id: <199910292059.QAA23842@lab12.ie.pitt.edu> From: grafe@lab12.ie.pitt.edu (Gary Rafe) To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: ESS Maestro-2 support ? Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org As a new owner of a notebook using one of the ESS Maestro audio chips (Toshiba Satellite 4030CDT w/3.3-RELEASE), I'm quite interested in getting the audio to work on it -- at least to run the mixer and get half-duplex audio through /dev/audio to run (Linux) realplayer & simple .au & .wav files. I've looked at 4Front's OSS driver, and found it *not* to be an option. I see that there's an effort to put together an OSS Linux driver for the ESS Maestro audio chips (see http://people.redhat.com/zab/maestro/). I'd rather not have to run Linux on this system, if I can avoid it. Are the snd/pcm maintainers looking at this ?
