2.6.24 kernel and MSI TV @nywheremaster MS-8606 status

Hi Herman, Mauro.

Status with 2.6.24 is OK, BUT with the following changes:

1) mkdir /usr/src/linux/tmpmsi
2) cd tmpmsi
3) hg init
4) hg pull http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
5) make
6) make install

and changes for 2.6.24.3 :

Adding to /etc/modprobe.conf this line:

options tda9887 port1=0 port2=0 qss=1

After reboot it works fine!

In 2.6.23 was used tuner instead tda9887
so it was
options tuner port1=0 port2=0 qss=1

Rgs,
Serge.

Hi Serge,

fine, that was what I tried to explain.

I have started to write a mail on it already, maybe it provides some deeper insights and is useful for the records. So I send it despite off you have realized the problem now.

Thanks,
Hermann

Hi, Steve.

Unfortunately by default initialization for this tuner it does not go in right way. So I use this sequence (see full list of commands) to make it work:

rmmod cx88_alsa
rmmod cx8800
rmmod cx88xx
rmmod tuner
rmmod tda9887
modprobe cx88xx
modprobe tda9887 port1=0 port2=0 qss=1
modprobe tuner
modprobe cx8800

Actually I do not dig deeply with this, but main goal of this is to initiate device with port1=0 port2=0 qss=1 option to get sound. Also v4l devices appears in /dev after cx8800 initialization (could be mistaken, because I am writing this by memory ;-) and, lol, from Windows PC).

Pls also see Hermann explanation.

Rgs,
Serge.

Hi,

I do have a MSI TV Anywhere Master (MSI 8606, cx88) and analog tv cable.

I have a fresh Ubuntu Hardy install, up to date. Kernel 2.6.24-12-generic

I did :

mkdir /usr/src/linux/tmpmsi
cd tmpmsi
hg init
hg pull http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
make
make install

Created a file in /etc/modprobe.d/ and added this line :

options tda9887 port1=0 port2=0 qss=1

I still have no sound (tv and radio).

modinfo tda9887

  filename:       /lib/modules/2.6.24-12-generic/kernel/drivers/media/video/tda9887.ko
  license:        GPL
  srcversion:     6E9F018870C816AFE420473
  depends:        i2c-core
  vermagic:       2.6.24-12-generic SMP mod_unload 
  parm:           debug:enable verbose debug messages (int)
  parm:           port1:int
  parm:           port2:int
  parm:           qss:int
  parm:           adjust:int

If you want me to try some settings, let me know since I have this card also...

Thanks,

Steve

Hi,

there is one thing I would like to mention again.
Don't suggest to use qss=1.

You don't need to set it, since it is the default.

The tda9887 config comes down from the module defaults over tuner specific settings, then card specific settings and finally insmod options.

The insmod options override all others, in this case here they also do override the qss=0 for NTSC in the card's entry. Result is no sound for NTSC-M system with forced qss=1.

Cheers,
Hermann
