VDR with EM8470

  • As mentioned before this driver works with the NS2k Driver API from ftp://ftp.sigmadesigns.com/Net…ream2000-1.6.95.16.tar.gz - I don't know why this is not stated in the driver README.


    If you want to use DVD playback take a look here: [Announce] DVD playback für Kernel 2.6 mit em84


    And yes: it works with VDR and the em84xx plugin.


    And: accelerated divx playback is _not_ possible with this driver and em847x!

  • AFAIK the Sigma Lib won't work on Debian Sarge - at least Woody doesn't work.


    And without any log/error messages it's hard so see what happens ...


    And please: don't use 2 accounts/nicks! I wonder why you registered twice???

  • All works fine with arvdr (Debian Sarge)
    I use X-card em8475
    2.6.15.7 and 2.6.17.13 tested


    DVD work too :) (packetcommand)


    But i have some trouble...
    How i can select video out mode on x-card (s-video, RGB, etc)?
    When I play DVD on 16/9 TV, I have incorrect aspect ratio. All plays as 4:3.


    Zoom in 16/9 from dvb have incorrect place on screen (I think so..)



    sorry bad english...

    Great - do you use the default libc?

    There are some functions for this - I'm not sure if they will work for an em847x - but I will check them.

    In DVD mode right now the settings from the em84xx are not used, but overwritten by the sigma dvdplayer code. I will modify this in the next version of the plugin.

    but no video out ,how can i do ?

  • I use default Sigma libs.


    One of the trouble, in realmagic driver ver 2.1 not present MAKEDEV-EM84XX.sh. I search it very long time, and found in driver ver 1.2 on this forum.


    All others have't problems for make it (em84xx plugin, mplayer, dvd driver).


    If I use rmmod packetcommand module after inserting, need reboot comp, x-card locked.


    I have't OSD with mplayer now, may be I incorrect compiled it.


    AC3 sound play very fine in passthrough mode, from x-card internal spdif out to internal audigy2zs spdif input.

  • my xcard (em8470) can not be loadded when systerm up


    I make the device ,then give out a fle realmagic84xx.ko,then put this file to /lib/modules/2.6.15.7/


    I type "insmod /lib/modules/2.6.15.7/realmagic84xx.ko"


    but syslog can not out anything about this card .


    I think the xcard is not drivered by systerm,What happend ?


    so the vdr give out many error information
    Segmentation fault


    Help me with it ! my systerm is Debian sarge 2.6.15.7 and with Arvdr

  • I change sourcefile
    #define DEVICE_ID_XCARD 0x8470


    then make realmagic84xx.ko


    When i type insmod realmagic84xx.ko


    then syslog:


    Dec 10 20:49:41 arvdr kernel: em84xx: IRQ 255 not free.
    Dec 10 20:49:41 arvdr kernel: quasar: probe of 0000:01:0d.0 failed with error -5



    what's wrong ? help with it ,Thank you !

    help please!


    hi,
    the "realmagic84xx" Kernel-2.6.xx - Modul works only with libc-2.3.4!
    Look here.


    Slackware-10.1 and gen2vdr-1.1 use libc-2.3.4 :)


    Which libc use Debian sarge 2.6.15.7 and with Arvdr? ( ls /lib/libc-* )

    Einmal editiert, zuletzt von Uwe ()

  • Not in libc-2.3.4 trouble.


    realmagic84xx driver don't works with em8470.
    It works with em8400 and em8475 only.


    in realmagicdev.h


    #define VENDOR_ID_SIGMAD 0x1105
    #define DEVICE_ID_EM8400 0x8400
    #define DEVICE_ID_XCARD 0x8475



    in realmagicdev.c

    // NOTE: at the moment we only have support for one card



    Need add em8470 support in realmagic driver.
