Encouraged by http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?200312050618.hB56IYi00447 I picked up a PVR 350 to use on my home firewall. The ability to schedule TV recordings via cron was just too tempting! However, much to my disappointment, it looks like the underlying chipset has changed enough not to work with the driver as posted. When loading the modules, I see Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: cxm0: <Conexant iTVC15 MPEG Coder> mem 0xd8000000-0xdbffffff irq 12 at device 1.0 on pci1 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: cxm_iic0: <Conexant iTVC15 / iTVC16 I2C controller> on cxm0 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: iicbb0: <I2C bit-banging driver> on cxm_iic0 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: iicbus0: <Philips I2C bus> on iicbb0 master-only Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: iicsmb0: <I2C to SMB bridge> on iicbus0 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: smbus1: <System Management Bus> on iicsmb0 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: smb1: <SMBus general purpose I/O> on smbus1 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: cxm0: unknown tuner code 0xf9 Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: cxm0: could not initialize tuner Jan 9 10:19:09 cage /kernel: device_probe_and_attach: cxm0 attach returned 6 Patching the code to max the tuner ID of 0xf9 match the listed tuners in the case statement does not work either. e.g. if I force it to one of the ones listed, it still barfs on the audio portion. If I force that as well to continue on, the unit does not initialize cxm0: Philips FM1246 tuner cxm0: SAA7115 rev 1 video decoder cxm0: unknown audio decoder MSP3448W-A2 -- continuing anyways cxm0: MSP3448W-A2 audio decoder cxm0: IR Remote cxm0: could not initialize hardware device_probe_and_attach: cxm0 attach returned 6 Has anyone had any luck with these newer models ? I had a look at the linux ivtv stuff and it seemed to treat the DSP the same as the MSP34xx series. But as for the video tuner, it made reference to a saa7127 which I wonder if this is one. ---Mike -------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada www.sentex.net/mike
