 Posted: Thu Mar 24, 2005 8:09 am Post subject: PCHDTV HD-3000 V4L HOWTO |
 |
|
Here's how I got my pcHDTV HD-3000 card going without xine-hd.
I'm using:
AMD64(3200)/Gentoo 2004.3
gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.11-r3
mplayer-1.0_pre6-r2
Video For Linux enabled in kernel
I assume you are logged in as root to install the drivers and tools.
Get the drivers and tools from www.pchdtv.com.
| Code: | mkdir ~/pcHDTV
cd ~/pcHDTV
wget http://pchdtv.com/downloads/pcHDTV-2.0.tar.gz
wget http://pchdtv.com/downloads/tools-2.6-a.tar.gz
tar xvzf pcHDTV-2.0.tar.gz
tar xvzf tools-2.6-a.tar.gz |
Make,install the video4linux drivers and tools.
| Code: | cd ~/pcHDTV/pcHDTV-2.0
## With udev.
make && make install && make udev
# udev permissions file ends up in the wrong directory
mv /etc/udev/rules.d/10-pchdtv.permissions /etc/udev/permissions.d/
## Without udev.
make && make install
cd ~/pcHDTV/tools-2.6-a
# Before running make install you must edit the config file to remove the '-C' from the install line:
# install -C -mode=u=rwx,go=rx $(PROGS)$(PREFIX)/bin to have the following instead:
# install -mode=u=rwx,go=rx $(PROGS)$(PREFIX)/bin
make clean && make

Please note if you leave out this next step the dvb driver will load first if you use kernel auto module loading. That being said I have done this and have lost access to my NTSC tuner/Composite/S-Video inputs. If I boot into the dvb driver and remove cx88-dvb and and insert cx88-atsc by hand all seems well. Maybe it's just me?
Add to /etc/modules.autoload/kernel-2.6
Reboot or try modprobe cx88-atsc.
Verify the drivers are loaded:
| Code: | dmesg
...
Linux video capture interface: v1.00

If the dmesg reports: 'DVB: registering frontend 0 (pcHDTV HD3000 HDTV)' then you have the dvb driver installed. You must remove it before installing the v4l driver.
| Code: | modprobe -r cx88-dvb
modprobe cx88-atsc |
Verify the entries your dev directory.
| Code: | ls /dev/dvb*
/dev/dvb0.demux0 /dev/dvb0.dvr0 /dev/dvb0.frontend0 /dev/dvb0.net0
ls /dev/v4l/
radio0 vbi0 video video0 video1
ls /dev/dtv
/dev/dtv |
Warning, if video1 or /dev/dtv is missing then cx88-atsc is not installed or isn't working properly.
This is optional, if you want to use xine-hd. Otherwise you may use it as a list of available HD channels.
| Code: | | dtvscan /dev/dtv > ~/.xine/channels.atsc |
If dtvscan fails and you know what HD channels are available in your area you can check the signal. Replace # is the channel number.
| Code: | | dtvsignal /dev/dtv # |
Watch some HD TV! Replace # with a channel number.
| Code: | | getatsc /dev/dtv #|mplayer -vo xv -framedrop -vf pp=lb -autoq 6 -tsprog 0 -noconsolecontrols /dev/stdin |
I not able to test this but -tsprog 0 is supposed to set the subchannel your are requesting. Here's an example for channel 42.3.
| Code: | | getatsc /dev/dtv 42|mplayer -vo xv -framedrop -vf pp=lb -autoq 6 -tsprog 3 -noconsolecontrols /dev/stdin |
If you want to get rid of the squiggly lines at the top or bottom try cropdetect. It will report a suggested crop value.
| Code: | getatsc /dev/dtv 42|mplayer -vo xv -framedrop -vf pp=lb,cropdetect -autoq 6 -tsprog 3 -noconsolecontrols /dev/stdin
# then set it
getatsc /dev/dtv 42|mplayer -vo xv -framedrop -vf pp=lb,crop=1904:1056:8:16 -autoq 6 -tsprog 3 -noconsolecontrols /dev/stdin |
And if you want to watch plain old TV. You'll want to adjust your video settings here, the driver doesn't set optimal viewing settings. See the mencoder settings below for some decent values.
I have not done any HD recordings, but here's the syntax. Replace # with a channel number.
| Code: | | getatsc /dev/dtv # > myrecording.ts |
If all goes well you should be on your way to viewing HD TV! Now let's try to make our composite in/tv tuner work to capture some home movies.
Here are some things I discovered when trying to grab video from the non-HD side of the card.
1. The video4linux driver only supports YUY2 output, greatly slowing things down. Also it prevented me from using transcode. Luckily with mencoder and the right codecs/options you can make this happen.
2. You must use the enclosed audio loopback cable.
3. Mencoder won't unmute the video4linux driver you may need to run 'v4lctl volume mute off'. Tvtime doesn't have a problem with this so it may be an mplayer issue.
4. Your capture device must be set correctly. You can use this to test sound capturing.
| Code: | #test loopback cable, must have sox installed
v4lctl volume mute off
rec -c 2 -d /dev/dsp -f s -r 44100 -s w -t wav outfile.wav
mplayer outfile.wav
|
5. And here are some mplayer settings you might need to be familiar with.
amode=0 (0=mono, 1=stereo)
input=0 (0=tuner, 1=composite, 2=svideo)
This is what I used to pull some good quality video off the pcHDTV card. My 80 minute clip took a little over 4.5 gigs.
| Code: | | mencoder -tv driver=v4l2:normid=0:amode=0:input=1:brightness=70:contrast=25:hue=99:saturation=55:outfmt=yuy2:width=640:height=480:device=/dev/video0:adevice=/dev/dsp:audiorate=44100:forceaudio:forcechan=2:volume=95 -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg:vhq -vf pp=lb/hb/vb/dr,hqdn3d -oac mp3lame -o output.avi tv:// |

Also, I should probably note when viewing a 1920 x 1080 HD stream it uses around 65-75% of my cpu. |

|

i've tried just about every kernel that i can get my hands on, none of them seem to work with this card.
i tried the drivers included in the 2.6.12-rc2 kernel and with the dvb support, i'm missing a bunch of devices (ca0, audio0, video, ...)
when i try the cx88-atsc module, it simply can't read anything.
i can tune using azap and the dvb module, but nothing else will work 
i moved the udev permissions and rules to the proper place and i created a pchdtv file in the modules.d directory so the modules.conf file is updated properly.
has anyone else had this problem or similar and knows how to resolve the issue?

Does you have the appropriate module files for your kernel? Here is what mine looks like:
| Code: | /lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx88-atsc.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx88-blackbird.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx88-dvb.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx8800.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx8801.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx8802.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.11-gentoo-r5/v4l2/cx88xx.ko |
If you haven't rebooted since setting up udev you'll need to run udevstart to create the dev files.
How are you planning on using your card, dvb or v4l? MythTV has dvb support while most desktop programs use v4l. ie xine-hd.
Oh and make sure you don't use cx88-dvb and cx88-atsc together. Only one can used a time. |

|
|
2.6.12-rc3 and above include updated drivers for the pcHDTV 3000. It is a little hairy to get going, but it will work with the stock kernel drivers, and work well. I'm currently using this kernel on an AMD64 with MythTV to receive wonderful high-definition broadcasts.
As a side note, you probably want a card that can do XvMC, else the playback will be jumpy. Most recent nVidia cards do, but that's a whole other can of worms... |

| Hey, srwalter, where in KY? I'm in Lexington, and I hope to set aside some time to get my pcHDTV-3000 up in running. What channels/stations are you pulling in? What antenna if any are you using? |

Is the Quality any good? How is it on your monitor? I know HDTV is something like 1900x something right? I'm VERY interested in this card and Indy has quite a few HDTV broadcast channels from what I understand...

| Thanks for the excellent guide. I've had a pretty hard time getting the 2.0 drivers to work for the HD3000, as such I have been stuck using a 2.6.9 kernel with the 1.6 drivers for quite some time. Checking regularly on the pcHDTV boards for more information is definitely an exercise in futility trying to separate any bits of useful information from the noise. Your installation instructions are defintely the most clear and concise that I have seen so far and as such I have finally had my first success with these blasted 2.0 drivers. So anyway, many thanks for getting me out of the driver dungeon and moving forward finally! |

It depends on what you mean by quality. If you're referring to the quality of the recorded broadcast, it's kind of irrelevent with HDTV. HDTV is transmitted as a digital transport stream which is basically just just a very high bitrate mpeg2 file. As such, there is no (re)encoding of the transmission such as would be done with a traditional ananlog TV signal and card such as a PVR-350. Things that are relevant to HDTV cards would be signal strength, for example. Higher signal strength results in fewer dropped packets which results in fewer glitches during playback. As far as signal strength goes, my own HD3000 seems to have an excellent tuner. I can pick up all local over the air stations at 90% signal strength from over 40 miles away from the transmission tower using nothing more than 13" X 13" Zenith Silver Sensor antenna in my attic. |

Something weird I just came across. I run two HD3000 cards on different boxes. One running the gentoo testing branch and the other running the stable branch which is intended to by my master MythTV backend. Well since I got the driver working on the testing box, I decided to get it working on my stable box. Well it seems there is something strang going on with udev version 046 and either the rules or permissions files of the pcHDTV 2.0 drivers. It would create some sort of node called /dev/dvb with attributes crwx rather than a dvb directory with an adapter0 subdirectory. I remedied this problem by upgrading to udev testing (which at the time of this writing was 056).
| Code: | | echo "sys-fs/udev ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords |
So while the dvb directory is probably not used for the v4l driver it was bugging me that I was getting the same results. And for whatever reason, the v4l driver refused to work as well until upgrading so perhaps it had some related issues with the older udev. Anyway just a heads up in case someone else runs across this same problem. |

Need a bit of help. I've got mythtv up and running, just not getting same results with as you with respect to the pcHDTV 3000 card.
I tried pointing to /dev/video0 for the card setup in mythtv-setup, but I get and ERROR message wrt tuning.
Below you'll find relevant output for my setup. It's a gentoo 2005.0 install running 2.6.11.7.
Any ideas? Let me know if there's any other info needed to help me debug.
thanks!

andersbk,
I'm having the same issue you are. What I found, is that it only works when I re-install the drivers:
1) don't autoload cx88_atsc on boot
2) cd path-to-driver/pcHDTV-2.0
3) make install
4) modprobe cx88_atsc
I have to do this every time I reboot. If I skip the first three steps, I have the same problem (only video0 is registered). For some reason following these steps causes some other modules to be loaded. I've tried loading the modules by hand, but it still doesn't work.
I haven't had time to investigate this more.
On a side note:
I'm using composite in, and the mplayer settings mentioned work great. How do I get mthtv to use the same yuy2 settings? BTW, I've only been able to see and video by making myth use the v4l driver. The color is skewed, but I can see it. If I use the pcHD300 driver (with composite input set), I get errors about dtv signal strength and a black screen.
Thanks for this post!!!

Ok so anyone have ideas on this one:
amd64 w/ 2.6.12-r7 and the drivers loaded as modules
Post reboot a dmesg shows that the cx88-dvb loaded and says created adapter and frontend, but I have no adapters in /dev/dvb
I am using udev 56
Thanks

Correction: I am using 2.6.12-r4, I was confusing the r7 with the 2.6.11 kernel i had  |

using gentoo linux on my amd64, with kernel 2.6.10-gentoo-r6, also tried kerel linux-2.6.11-gentoo-r7.
running make in the pcHDTV-2.0 directory yeilds some worrying warnings:

(and it sits there, forever, trying to load cx88-dvb, probably because of issues with the atsc module...)
rebooting and a modprobe cx88-dvb yeild the following in dmesg:

and I can watch regular (analogue) tv with tvtime or xawtv. but i would like to be able to use HDTV, so I need to get the atsc modules to work, and it would also be nice if the dvb modules would load cleaner (no Call Traces in dmesg...)
thanks,

Hmm.. when you run make are you running the same kernel version you're compiling for? I know the make script doesn't use the /usr/src/linux symlink for determining the kernel version.
Are these configs options set for your kernel?

and in case it's not appearent, even though cx88_atsc appears in the lsmod output, there it *NOT* a /dev/dtv

Do you have /dev/v4l/video1? video0 will be the analog tuner and video1 will be atsc tuner.
| Code: | ls /dev/v4l/ -l

Or you running devfs or udev? If using udev, try running udevstart. |

I do not think I'm using udev, but a "udev [tab]" in my colsole does show some utilities:
| Code: | farrell root # udev
udev udevd udevsend udevtest
udev_volume_id udevinfo udevstart
farrell root # udev |
So I checked with make menuconfig, and I see:
| Code: | [*] /dev file system support (OBSOLETE)
[*] Automatically mount at boot |
and heres what I have for v4l:
| Code: | farrell root # ls /dev/v4l/ -l

So since I have a video1, should I attempt to compile and install xine-hd? Anything I need to do differently from the READMEs for my card or the docs in the xine-hd package?
Thanks,

I would make the /dev/dtv link to /dev/v4l/video1 and test the atsc tools first.
Ie, run "dtvscan /dev/dtv" This will also verify you're getting a signal. |

ok, I made the /dev/dtv link, and I get this with dtvscan:
| Code: | farrell root # ln -s /dev/v4l/video1 /dev/dtv
farrell root # ls -l /dev/dtv
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 15 May 23 00:25 /dev/dtv -> /dev/v4l/video1
farrell root # dtvscan /dev/dtv
main: argc 2 argv[1] /dev/dtv
channel = 2
channel = 3
channel = 4
[. . .]
channel = 80
channel = 81
channel = 82
channel = 83
farrell root # |
but then I get this really weird output when I try dtvsignal:
| Code: | farrell root # dtvsignal /dev/dtv 7.1
main: argc 3 argv[1] /dev/dtv
channel 7
freq*16 = 2804
main: ioctl 1 rtn 0
main: ioctl 2 rtn 0
dtvsignal ver 0.2 - by Jack Kelliher (c) 2002
channel = 7 freq*16 = 2804

and those repeated lines repeat _very_ fast... I Ctrl-C'd in a fraction of a second, and hundreds if not thousands of those lines were spit out.
and, yes, channel 7.1 does exist in my area, its ABC. I checked with antennaweb.org...
Thanks again,

um, well now I fell a little dumb. I rebuilt my "tools" package, and now I get something better:
| Code: | farrell tools-2.6-a # dtvsignal /dev/v4l/video1 9.1
main: argc 3 argv[1] /dev/v4l/video1
channel 9
freq*16 = 2996
main: ioctl 1 rtn 0
main: ioctl 2 rtn 0
dtvsignal ver 0.2 - by Jack Kelliher (c) 2002
channel = 9 freq*16 = 2996
Signal: | . : . | .____:____.____|
Signal: 022 ----------- |
I'll work on moving my antenna around and see if signal quality improves any...
thanks,

now with my recompiled tools, dtvscan found about 10 decent channels that dtvsignal shows receptions levels of 070 or more... the highest being 083. now im gonna work on install xine-hd and mess around.
weird things is the NONE of the channel i get decent recption for are listed on antennaweb...
thanks,

sorry to keep replying... so far im very happy... I can record broadcasts with getatsc, and view the .ts file with xine and mplayer very nicely. still trying to get xine to be able to watch stuff live...
only two questions left, aside from live tuning with xine:
I can noticably see the compression artifacts, is this normal? i'm not talking about glitching from dropped packets, i expected that, but I mean it doesnt looks like a dvd. its not bad, but its just that i can see the effect of mpeg or whatever compression. just curious if this is normal, and why? certain bandwidth constraints, or is it just that broadcasters are using cheap encoders or something?
lastly, on some channels, it looks as though they have more than one video stream, each with its own audio stream(s) ... like one of the PBS channels seems like it broadcasting both HD and SD, and xine gets confused. It will play the SD video, but without sound, and if click on the timeline the video stops but I hear audio from the HD video for a few seconds before xine dies. Mplayer does better and plays the right audio stream with the right video stream to begin with, and doesn't die when I fast-forward, etc... and I have this one .ts file that plays one video stream by default with xine, and another by defualt with mplayer. so is this normal, and if so, how so i select which stream to watch? preferably, how to do so with mplayer/gmplayer. is it like dvd "angles" ?
btw, i have the .ts, and can also do a xvidcap to show how it plays different streams in xine or mplayer, if anyone wants to look.
thanks, and sorry for all the posts,

Artifacts can come from weak signal or a slow decoder. Do you have a nvidia card? You can try the Xvmc video option can improve the video quality. As for the quality of the mpeg from the broadcasters, it's all depends on them. They don't all do it the same.

For receiveing direct broadcasts (not saving to a file first) from my experience I think xine-hd is buggy, which is why I don't use it. I prefer to use mplayer because it handles switching frame rates better. I just haven't figured out how to change channels with mplayer running. So I built a little kdialog script to allow me to select what channel I want.
If I remember correctly xine will handle substreams by adding .X to the channel number, ie 42.1 or 42.3... Mplayer is supposed to handle substreams like this:
| Quote: | I not able to test this but -tsprog 0 is supposed to set the subchannel your are requesting. Here's an example for channel 42.3.
Code:
| Code: | | getatsc /dev/dtv 42|mplayer -vo xv -framedrop -vf pp=lb -autoq 6 -tsprog 3 -noconsolecontrols /dev/stdin |
