-The bttv driver
-===============
-
-Release notes for bttv
-----------------------
-
-You'll need at least these config options for bttv:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- CONFIG_I2C=m
- CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT=m
- CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=m
-
-The latest bttv version is available from http://bytesex.org/bttv/
-
-
-Make bttv work with your card
------------------------------
-
-Just try "modprobe bttv" and see if that works.
-
-If it doesn't bttv likely could not autodetect your card and needs some
-insmod options. The most important insmod option for bttv is "card=n"
-to select the correct card type. If you get video but no sound you've
-very likely specified the wrong (or no) card type. A list of supported
-cards is in CARDLIST.bttv
-
-If bttv takes very long to load (happens sometimes with the cheap
-cards which have no tuner), try adding this to your modules.conf:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1
-
-For the WinTV/PVR you need one firmware file from the driver CD:
-hcwamc.rbf. The file is in the pvr45xxx.exe archive (self-extracting
-zip file, unzip can unpack it). Put it into the /etc/pvr directory or
-use the firm_altera=<path> insmod option to point the driver to the
-location of the file.
-
-If your card isn't listed in CARDLIST.bttv or if you have trouble making
-audio work, you should read the Sound-FAQ.
-
-
-Autodetecting cards
--------------------
-
-bttv uses the PCI Subsystem ID to autodetect the card type. lspci lists
-the Subsystem ID in the second line, looks like this:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- 00:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 (rev 02)
- Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV/GO
- Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 5
- Memory at e2000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
-
-only bt878-based cards can have a subsystem ID (which does not mean
-that every card really has one). bt848 cards can't have a Subsystem
-ID and therefore can't be autodetected. There is a list with the ID's
-in bttv-cards.c (in case you are intrested or want to mail patches
-with updates).
-
-
-Still doesn't work?
--------------------
-
-I do NOT have a lab with 30+ different grabber boards and a
-PAL/NTSC/SECAM test signal generator at home, so I often can't
-reproduce your problems. This makes debugging very difficult for me.
-If you have some knowledge and spare time, please try to fix this
-yourself (patches very welcome of course...) You know: The linux
-slogan is "Do it yourself".
-
-There is a mailing list at
-http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-media
-
-If you have trouble with some specific TV card, try to ask there
-instead of mailing me directly. The chance that someone with the
-same card listens there is much higher...
-
-For problems with sound: There are a lot of different systems used
-for TV sound all over the world. And there are also different chips
-which decode the audio signal. Reports about sound problems ("stereo
-doesn't work") are pretty useless unless you include some details
-about your hardware and the TV sound scheme used in your country (or
-at least the country you are living in).
-
-Modprobe options
-----------------
-
-Note: "modinfo <module>" prints various information about a kernel
-module, among them a complete and up-to-date list of insmod options.
-This list tends to be outdated because it is updated manually ...
-
-==========================================================================
-
-bttv.o
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- the bt848/878 (grabber chip) driver
-
- insmod args:
- card=n card type, see CARDLIST for a list.
- tuner=n tuner type, see CARDLIST for a list.
- radio=0/1 card supports radio
- pll=0/1/2 pll settings
- 0: don't use PLL
- 1: 28 MHz crystal installed
- 2: 35 MHz crystal installed
-
- triton1=0/1 for Triton1 (+others) compatibility
- vsfx=0/1 yet another chipset bug compatibility bit
- see README.quirks for details on these two.
-
- bigendian=n Set the endianness of the gfx framebuffer.
- Default is native endian.
- fieldnr=0/1 Count fields. Some TV descrambling software
- needs this, for others it only generates
- 50 useless IRQs/sec. default is 0 (off).
- autoload=0/1 autoload helper modules (tuner, audio).
- default is 1 (on).
- bttv_verbose=0/1/2 verbose level (at insmod time, while
- looking at the hardware). default is 1.
- bttv_debug=0/1 debug messages (for capture).
- default is 0 (off).
- irq_debug=0/1 irq handler debug messages.
- default is 0 (off).
- gbuffers=2-32 number of capture buffers for mmap'ed capture.
- default is 4.
- gbufsize= size of capture buffers. default and
- maximum value is 0x208000 (~2MB)
- no_overlay=0 Enable overlay on broken hardware. There
- are some chipsets (SIS for example) which
- are known to have problems with the PCI DMA
- push used by bttv. bttv will disable overlay
- by default on this hardware to avoid crashes.
- With this insmod option you can override this.
- no_overlay=1 Disable overlay. It should be used by broken
- hardware that doesn't support PCI2PCI direct
- transfers.
- automute=0/1 Automatically mutes the sound if there is
- no TV signal, on by default. You might try
- to disable this if you have bad input signal
- quality which leading to unwanted sound
- dropouts.
- chroma_agc=0/1 AGC of chroma signal, off by default.
- adc_crush=0/1 Luminance ADC crush, on by default.
- i2c_udelay= Allow reduce I2C speed. Default is 5 usecs
- (meaning 66,67 Kbps). The default is the
- maximum supported speed by kernel bitbang
- algorithm. You may use lower numbers, if I2C
- messages are lost (16 is known to work on
- all supported cards).
-
- bttv_gpio=0/1
- gpiomask=
- audioall=
- audiomux=
- See Sound-FAQ for a detailed description.
-
- remap, card, radio and pll accept up to four comma-separated arguments
- (for multiple boards).
-
-tuner.o
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- The tuner driver. You need this unless you want to use only
- with a camera or external tuner ...
-
- insmod args:
- debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog
- type=n type of the tuner chip. n as follows:
- see CARDLIST for a complete list.
- pal=[bdgil] select PAL variant (used for some tuners
- only, important for the audio carrier).
-
-tvaudio.o
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- new, experimental module which is supported to provide a single
- driver for all simple i2c audio control chips (tda/tea*).
-
- insmod args:
- tda8425 = 1 enable/disable the support for the
- tda9840 = 1 various chips.
- tda9850 = 1 The tea6300 can't be autodetected and is
- tda9855 = 1 therefore off by default, if you have
- tda9873 = 1 this one on your card (STB uses these)
- tda9874a = 1 you have to enable it explicitly.
- tea6300 = 0 The two tda985x chips use the same i2c
- tea6420 = 1 address and can't be disturgished from
- pic16c54 = 1 each other, you might have to disable
- the wrong one.
- debug = 1 print debug messages
-
- insmod args for tda9874a:
- tda9874a_SIF=1/2 select sound IF input pin (1 or 2)
- (default is pin 1)
- tda9874a_AMSEL=0/1 auto-mute select for NICAM (default=0)
- Please read note 3 below!
- tda9874a_STD=n select TV sound standard (0..8):
- 0 - A2, B/G
- 1 - A2, M (Korea)
- 2 - A2, D/K (1)
- 3 - A2, D/K (2)
- 4 - A2, D/K (3)
- 5 - NICAM, I
- 6 - NICAM, B/G
- 7 - NICAM, D/K (default)
- 8 - NICAM, L
-
- Note 1: tda9874a supports both tda9874h (old) and tda9874a (new) chips.
- Note 2: tda9874h/a and tda9875 (which is supported separately by
- tda9875.o) use the same i2c address so both modules should not be
- used at the same time.
- Note 3: Using tda9874a_AMSEL option depends on your TV card design!
- AMSEL=0: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound
- and the sound on 1st carrier (i.e. FM mono or AM).
- AMSEL=1: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound
- and the analog mono input (MONOIN pin).
- If tda9874a decoder on your card has MONOIN pin not connected, then
- use only tda9874_AMSEL=0 or don't specify this option at all.
- For example:
- card=65 (FlyVideo 2000S) - set AMSEL=1 or AMSEL=0
- card=72 (Prolink PV-BT878P rev.9B) - set AMSEL=0 only
-
-msp3400.o
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- The driver for the msp34xx sound processor chips. If you have a
- stereo card, you probably want to insmod this one.
-
- insmod args:
- debug=1/2 print some debug info to the syslog,
- 2 is more verbose.
- simple=1 Use the "short programming" method. Newer
- msp34xx versions support this. You need this
- for dbx stereo. Default is on if supported by
- the chip.
- once=1 Don't check the TV-stations Audio mode
- every few seconds, but only once after
- channel switches.
- amsound=1 Audio carrier is AM/NICAM at 6.5 Mhz. This
- should improve things for french people, the
- carrier autoscan seems to work with FM only...
-
-tea6300.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead)
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- The driver for the tea6300 fader chip. If you have a stereo
- card and the msp3400.o doesn't work, you might want to try this
- one. This chip is seen on most STB TV/FM cards (usually from
- Gateway OEM sold surplus on auction sites).
-
- insmod args:
- debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog.
-
-tda8425.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead)
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- The driver for the tda8425 fader chip. This driver used to be
- part of bttv.c, so if your sound used to work but does not
- anymore, try loading this module.
-
- insmod args:
- debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog.
-
-tda985x.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead)
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- The driver for the tda9850/55 audio chips.
-
- insmod args:
- debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog.
- chip=9850/9855 set the chip type.

-
-If the box freezes hard with bttv
----------------------------------
-
-It might be a bttv driver bug. It also might be bad hardware. It also
-might be something else ...
-
-Just mailing me "bttv freezes" isn't going to help much. This README
-has a few hints how you can help to pin down the problem.
-
-
-bttv bugs
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-If some version works and another doesn't it is likely to be a driver
-bug. It is very helpful if you can tell where exactly it broke
-(i.e. the last working and the first broken version).
-
-With a hard freeze you probably doesn't find anything in the logfiles.
-The only way to capture any kernel messages is to hook up a serial
-console and let some terminal application log the messages. /me uses
-screen. See Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst for details on setting
-up a serial console.
-
-Read Documentation/admin-guide/bug-hunting.rst to learn how to get any useful
-information out of a register+stack dump printed by the kernel on
-protection faults (so-called "kernel oops").
-
-If you run into some kind of deadlock, you can try to dump a call trace
-for each process using sysrq-t (see Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst).
-This way it is possible to figure where *exactly* some process in "D"
-state is stuck.
-
-I've seen reports that bttv 0.7.x crashes whereas 0.8.x works rock solid
-for some people. Thus probably a small buglet left somewhere in bttv
-0.7.x. I have no idea where exactly, it works stable for me and a lot of
-other people. But in case you have problems with the 0.7.x versions you
-can give 0.8.x a try ...
-
-
-hardware bugs
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Some hardware can't deal with PCI-PCI transfers (i.e. grabber => vga).
-Sometimes problems show up with bttv just because of the high load on
-the PCI bus. The bt848/878 chips have a few workarounds for known
-incompatibilities, see README.quirks.
-
-Some folks report that increasing the pci latency helps too,
-althrought I'm not sure whenever this really fixes the problems or
-only makes it less likely to happen. Both bttv and btaudio have a
-insmod option to set the PCI latency of the device.
-
-Some mainboard have problems to deal correctly with multiple devices
-doing DMA at the same time. bttv + ide seems to cause this sometimes,
-if this is the case you likely see freezes only with video and hard disk
-access at the same time. Updating the IDE driver to get the latest and
-greatest workarounds for hardware bugs might fix these problems.
-
-
-other
-~~~~~
-
-If you use some binary-only yunk (like nvidia module) try to reproduce
-the problem without.
-
-IRQ sharing is known to cause problems in some cases. It works just
-fine in theory and many configurations. Neverless it might be worth a
-try to shuffle around the PCI cards to give bttv another IRQ or make
-it share the IRQ with some other piece of hardware. IRQ sharing with
-VGA cards seems to cause trouble sometimes. I've also seen funny
-effects with bttv sharing the IRQ with the ACPI bridge (and
-apci-enabled kernel).
-
-Bttv quirks
------------
-
-Below is what the bt878 data book says about the PCI bug compatibility
-modes of the bt878 chip.
-
-The triton1 insmod option sets the EN_TBFX bit in the control register.
-The vsfx insmod option does the same for EN_VSFX bit. If you have
-stability problems you can try if one of these options makes your box
-work solid.
-
-drivers/pci/quirks.c knows about these issues, this way these bits are
-enabled automagically for known-buggy chipsets (look at the kernel
-messages, bttv tells you).
-
-Normal PCI Mode
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The PCI REQ signal is the logical-or of the incoming function requests.
-The inter-nal GNT[0:1] signals are gated asynchronously with GNT and
-demultiplexed by the audio request signal. Thus the arbiter defaults to
-the video function at power-up and parks there during no requests for
-bus access. This is desirable since the video will request the bus more
-often. However, the audio will have highest bus access priority. Thus
-the audio will have first access to the bus even when issuing a request
-after the video request but before the PCI external arbiter has granted
-access to the Bt879. Neither function can preempt the other once on the
-bus. The duration to empty the entire video PCI FIFO onto the PCI bus is
-very short compared to the bus access latency the audio PCI FIFO can
-tolerate.
-
-
-430FX Compatibility Mode
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-When using the 430FX PCI, the following rules will ensure
-compatibility:
-
- (1) Deassert REQ at the same time as asserting FRAME.
- (2) Do not reassert REQ to request another bus transaction until after
- finish-ing the previous transaction.
-
-Since the individual bus masters do not have direct control of REQ, a
-simple logical-or of video and audio requests would violate the rules.
-Thus, both the arbiter and the initiator contain 430FX compatibility
-mode logic. To enable 430FX mode, set the EN_TBFX bit as indicated in
-Device Control Register on page 104.
-
-When EN_TBFX is enabled, the arbiter ensures that the two compatibility
-rules are satisfied. Before GNT is asserted by the PCI arbiter, this
-internal arbiter may still logical-or the two requests. However, once
-the GNT is issued, this arbiter must lock in its decision and now route
-only the granted request to the REQ pin. The arbiter decision lock
-happens regardless of the state of FRAME because it does not know when
-FRAME will be asserted (typically - each initiator will assert FRAME on
-the cycle following GNT). When FRAME is asserted, it is the initiator s
-responsibility to remove its request at the same time. It is the
-arbiters responsibility to allow this request to flow through to REQ and
-not allow the other request to hold REQ asserted. The decision lock may
-be removed at the end of the transaction: for example, when the bus is
-idle (FRAME and IRDY). The arbiter decision may then continue
-asynchronously until GNT is again asserted.
-
-
-Interfacing with Non-PCI 2.1 Compliant Core Logic
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-A small percentage of core logic devices may start a bus transaction
-during the same cycle that GNT is de-asserted. This is non PCI 2.1
-compliant. To ensure compatibility when using PCs with these PCI
-controllers, the EN_VSFX bit must be enabled (refer to Device Control
-Register on page 104). When in this mode, the arbiter does not pass GNT
-to the internal functions unless REQ is asserted. This prevents a bus
-transaction from starting the same cycle as GNT is de-asserted. This
-also has the side effect of not being able to take advantage of bus
-parking, thus lowering arbitration performance. The Bt879 drivers must
-query for these non-compliant devices, and set the EN_VSFX bit only if
-required.
-
-bttv and sound mini howto
--------------------------
-
-There are a lot of different bt848/849/878/879 based boards available.
-Making video work often is not a big deal, because this is handled
-completely by the bt8xx chip, which is common on all boards. But
-sound is handled in slightly different ways on each board.
-
-To handle the grabber boards correctly, there is a array tvcards[] in
-bttv-cards.c, which holds the information required for each board.
-Sound will work only, if the correct entry is used (for video it often
-makes no difference). The bttv driver prints a line to the kernel
-log, telling which card type is used. Like this one:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- bttv0: model: BT848(Hauppauge old) [autodetected]
-
-You should verify this is correct. If it isn't, you have to pass the
-correct board type as insmod argument, "insmod bttv card=2" for
-example. The file CARDLIST has a list of valid arguments for card.
-If your card isn't listed there, you might check the source code for
-new entries which are not listed yet. If there isn't one for your
-card, you can check if one of the existing entries does work for you
-(just trial and error...).
-
-Some boards have an extra processor for sound to do stereo decoding
-and other nice features. The msp34xx chips are used by Hauppauge for
-example. If your board has one, you might have to load a helper
-module like msp3400.o to make sound work. If there isn't one for the
-chip used on your board: Bad luck. Start writing a new one. Well,
-you might want to check the video4linux mailing list archive first...
-
-Of course you need a correctly installed soundcard unless you have the
-speakers connected directly to the grabber board. Hint: check the
-mixer settings too. ALSA for example has everything muted by default.
-
-
-How sound works in detail
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Still doesn't work? Looks like some driver hacking is required.
-Below is a do-it-yourself description for you.
-
-The bt8xx chips have 32 general purpose pins, and registers to control
-these pins. One register is the output enable register
-(BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN), it says which pins are actively driven by the
-bt848 chip. Another one is the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA), where
-you can get/set the status if these pins. They can be used for input
-and output.
-
-Most grabber board vendors use these pins to control an external chip
-which does the sound routing. But every board is a little different.
-These pins are also used by some companies to drive remote control
-receiver chips. Some boards use the i2c bus instead of the gpio pins
-to connect the mux chip.
-
-As mentioned above, there is a array which holds the required
-information for each known board. You basically have to create a new
-line for your board. The important fields are these two:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- struct tvcard
- {
- [ ... ]
- u32 gpiomask;
- u32 audiomux[6]; /* Tuner, Radio, external, internal, mute, stereo */
- };
-
-gpiomask specifies which pins are used to control the audio mux chip.
-The corresponding bits in the output enable register
-(BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN) will be set as these pins must be driven by the
-bt848 chip.
-
-The audiomux\[\] array holds the data values for the different inputs
-(i.e. which pins must be high/low for tuner/mute/...). This will be
-written to the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA) to switch the audio
-mux.
-
-
-What you have to do is figure out the correct values for gpiomask and
-the audiomux array. If you have Windows and the drivers four your
-card installed, you might to check out if you can read these registers
-values used by the windows driver. A tool to do this is available
-from ftp://telepresence.dmem.strath.ac.uk/pub/bt848/winutil, but it
-doesn't work with bt878 boards according to some reports I received.
-Another one with bt878 support is available from
-http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/Files/btspy2.00.zip
-
-You might also dig around in the \*.ini files of the Windows applications.
-You can have a look at the board to see which of the gpio pins are
-connected at all and then start trial-and-error ...
-
-
-Starting with release 0.7.41 bttv has a number of insmod options to
-make the gpio debugging easier:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- bttv_gpio=0/1 enable/disable gpio debug messages
- gpiomask=n set the gpiomask value
- audiomux=i,j,... set the values of the audiomux array
- audioall=a set the values of the audiomux array (one
- value for all array elements, useful to check
- out which effect the particular value has).
-
-The messages printed with bttv_gpio=1 look like this:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- bttv0: gpio: en=00000027, out=00000024 in=00ffffd8 [audio: off]
-
- en = output _en_able register (BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN)
- out = _out_put bits of the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA),
- i.e. BT848_GPIO_DATA & BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN
- in = _in_put bits of the data register,
- i.e. BT848_GPIO_DATA & ~BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN
-
-
-
-Other elements of the tvcards array
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-If you are trying to make a new card work you might find it useful to
-know what the other elements in the tvcards array are good for:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- video_inputs - # of video inputs the card has
- audio_inputs - historical cruft, not used any more.
- tuner - which input is the tuner
- svhs - which input is svhs (all others are labeled composite)
- muxsel - video mux, input->registervalue mapping
- pll - same as pll= insmod option
- tuner_type - same as tuner= insmod option
- *_modulename - hint whenever some card needs this or that audio
- module loaded to work properly.
- has_radio - whenever this TV card has a radio tuner.
- no_msp34xx - "1" disables loading of msp3400.o module
- no_tda9875 - "1" disables loading of tda9875.o module
- needs_tvaudio - set to "1" to load tvaudio.o module
-
-If some config item is specified both from the tvcards array and as
-insmod option, the insmod option takes precedence.

-Supported cards: Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 cards
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-All cards with Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 and normal
-Composite/S-VHS inputs are supported. Teletext and Intercast support
-(PAL only) for ALL cards via VBI sample decoding in software.
-
-Some cards with additional multiplexing of inputs or other additional
-fancy chips are only partially supported (unless specifications by the
-card manufacturer are given). When a card is listed here it isn't
-necessarily fully supported.
-
-All other cards only differ by additional components as tuners, sound
-decoders, EEPROMs, teletext decoders ...

-- 4 Composite inputs, 1 S-VHS input (shared with 4th composite)
-- EEPROM
-
-http://www.matrix-vision.de/
-
-This card has no tuner but supports all 4 composite (1 shared with an
-S-VHS input) of the Bt848A.
-Very nice card if you only have satellite TV but several tuners connected
-to the card via composite.
-
-Many thanks to Matrix-Vision for giving us 2 cards for free which made
-Bt848a/Bt849 single crystal operation support possible!!!

-Hauppauge Win/TV pci
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-There are many different versions of the Hauppauge cards with different
-tuners (TV+Radio ...), teletext decoders.
-Note that even cards with same model numbers have (depending on the revision)
-different chips on it.
-
-- Bt848 (and others but always in 2 crystal operation???)
- newer cards have a Bt878
-
-- PAL, SECAM, NTSC or tuner with or without Radio support
-
-e.g.:
-
-- PAL:
-
- - TDA5737: VHF, hyperband and UHF mixer/oscillator for TV and VCR 3-band tuners
- - TSA5522: 1.4 GHz I2C-bus controlled synthesizer, I2C 0xc2-0xc3
-
-- NTSC:
-
- - TDA5731: VHF, hyperband and UHF mixer/oscillator for TV and VCR 3-band tuners
- - TSA5518: no datasheet available on Philips site
-
-- Philips SAA5246 or SAA5284 ( or no) Teletext decoder chip
- with buffer RAM (e.g. Winbond W24257AS-35: 32Kx8 CMOS static RAM)
- SAA5246 (I2C 0x22) is supported
-
-- 256 bytes EEPROM: Microchip 24LC02B or Philips 8582E2Y
- with configuration information
- I2C address 0xa0 (24LC02B also responds to 0xa2-0xaf)
-
-- 1 tuner, 1 composite and (depending on model) 1 S-VHS input
-
-- 14052B: mux for selection of sound source
-
-- sound decoder: TDA9800, MSP34xx (stereo cards)
-
-
-Askey CPH-Series
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-Developed by TelSignal(?), OEMed by many vendors (Typhoon, Anubis, Dynalink)
-
-- Card series:
- - CPH01x: BT848 capture only
- - CPH03x: BT848
- - CPH05x: BT878 with FM
- - CPH06x: BT878 (w/o FM)
- - CPH07x: BT878 capture only
-
-- TV standards:

-
-- CPH03x was often sold as "TV capturer".
-
-Identifying:
-
- #) 878 cards can be identified by PCI Subsystem-ID:
- - 144f:3000 = CPH06x
- - 144F:3002 = CPH05x w/ FM
- - 144F:3005 = CPH06x_LC (w/o remote control)
- #) The cards have a sticker with "CPH"-model on the back.
- #) These cards have a number printed on the PCB just above the tuner metal box:
- - "80-CP2000300-x" = CPH03X
- - "80-CP2000500-x" = CPH05X
- - "80-CP2000600-x" = CPH06X / CPH06x_LC
-
- Askey sells these cards as "Magic TView series", Brand "MagicXpress".
- Other OEM often call these "Tview", "TView99" or else.
-
-Lifeview Flyvideo Series:
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The naming of these series differs in time and space.
-
-Identifying:
- #) Some models can be identified by PCI subsystem ID:
-
- - 1852:1852 = Flyvideo 98 FM
- - 1851:1850 = Flyvideo 98
- - 1851:1851 = Flyvideo 98 EZ (capture only)
-
- #) There is a print on the PCB:
-
- - LR25 = Flyvideo (Zoran ZR36120, SAA7110A)
- - LR26 Rev.N = Flyvideo II (Bt848)
- - LR26 Rev.O = Flyvideo II (Bt878)
- - LR37 Rev.C = Flyvideo EZ (Capture only, ZR36120 + SAA7110)
- - LR38 Rev.A1= Flyvideo II EZ (Bt848 capture only)
- - LR50 Rev.Q = Flyvideo 98 (w/eeprom and PCI subsystem ID)
- - LR50 Rev.W = Flyvideo 98 (no eeprom)
- - LR51 Rev.E = Flyvideo 98 EZ (capture only)
- - LR90 = Flyvideo 2000 (Bt878)
- - LR90 Flyvideo 2000S (Bt878) w/Stereo TV (Package incl. LR91 daughterboard)
- - LR91 = Stereo daughter card for LR90
- - LR97 = Flyvideo DVBS
- - LR99 Rev.E = Low profile card for OEM integration (only internal audio!) bt878
- - LR136 = Flyvideo 2100/3100 (Low profile, SAA7130/SAA7134)
- - LR137 = Flyvideo DV2000/DV3000 (SAA7130/SAA7134 + IEEE1394)
- - LR138 Rev.C= Flyvideo 2000 (SAA7130)
- - LR138 Flyvideo 3000 (SAA7134) w/Stereo TV
-
- - These exist in variations w/FM and w/Remote sometimes denoted
- by suffixes "FM" and "R".
-
- #) You have a laptop (miniPCI card):
-
- - Product = FlyTV Platinum Mini
- - Model/Chip = LR212/saa7135
-
- - Lifeview.com.tw states (Feb. 2002):
- "The FlyVideo2000 and FlyVideo2000s product name have renamed to FlyVideo98."
- Their Bt8x8 cards are listed as discontinued.
- - Flyvideo 2000S was probably sold as Flyvideo 3000 in some countries(Europe?).
- The new Flyvideo 2000/3000 are SAA7130/SAA7134 based.
-
-"Flyvideo II" had been the name for the 848 cards, nowadays (in Germany)
-this name is re-used for LR50 Rev.W.
-
-The Lifeview website mentioned Flyvideo III at some time, but such a card
-has not yet been seen (perhaps it was the german name for LR90 [stereo]).
-These cards are sold by many OEMs too.
-
-FlyVideo A2 (Elta 8680)= LR90 Rev.F (w/Remote, w/o FM, stereo TV by tda9821) {Germany}

-Author of this section: Jon Tombs <jon@gte.esi.us.es>
-
-This card is basically the same as all the rest (Bt484A, Philips tuner),
-the main difference is that they have attached a programmable attenuator to 3
-GPIO lines in order to give some volume control. They have also stuck an
-infra-red remote control decoded on the board, I will add support for this
-when I get time (it simple generates an interrupt for each key press, with
-the key code is placed in the GPIO port).
-
-I don't yet have any application to test the radio support. The tuner
-frequency setting should work but it is possible that the audio multiplexer
-is wrong. If it doesn't work, send me email.
-
-
-- No Thanks to Leadtek they refused to answer any questions about their
- hardware. The driver was written by visual inspection of the card. If you
- use this driver, send an email insult to them, and tell them you won't
- continue buying their hardware unless they support Linux.
-
-- Little thanks to Princeton Technology Corp (http://www.princeton.com.tw)
- who make the audio attenuator. Their publicly available data-sheet available
- on their web site doesn't include the chip programming information! Hidden
- on their server are the full data-sheets, but don't ask how I found it.
-
-To use the driver I use the following options, the tuner and pll settings might
-be different in your country
-
-insmod videodev
-insmod i2c scan=1 i2c_debug=0 verbose=0
-insmod tuner type=1 debug=0
