pinnacle usb hybrid pro stick 330e won't work

At http://mcentral.de/wiki/index.php5/Installation_Guide

stands an installation guide on a (I presume) debian - based system.

I'm on arch64 and I'd love to have my usb-tv working,
but during the installation all sort of things go wrong,

first of all the following doesn't work
ls -hal /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source
ls -hal /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dmxdev.h
ls -hal /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.h
ls -hal /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_demux.h
ls -hal /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/source/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_net.h
ls -hal /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dmxdev.h
ls -hal /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_frontend.h
ls -hal /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_demux.h
ls -hal /usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_net.h

if you change source by build, it does exists. however, in the second part, /usr/src/linux-2.6.24-ARCH/... does exist,,

of coarse when I try to compile the driver supplied on that site, nothing works
suprise,

could anyone help me?

Re: pinnacle usb hybrid pro stick 330e won't work

Hi.

New userspace driver for empia based cards compiles cleanly and simply works on Arch's 2.6.24 kernel (there were some headers missing but it's been fixed immediately after i reported it)

Checkout and compile snapshots of these two repos (order matters):

http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/userspace-drivers/

http://mcentral.de/hg/~mrec/em28xx-userspace2/

Arch should be correctly supported, however some files were not included in these repos yet. I've sent an e-mail with missing files to Markus, but I guess he's earning his living right now, as the development stopped suddenly (it happens to everyone sometimes).

Download the files from here:

http://greblus.net/trunk/em28xx-arch/

make arch-media-daemon executable and copy it to userspace-drivers/init.d directory downloaded from hg repo (link above) The second file should go to userspace-drivers/udev directory (I suppose it's not really needed).

All you need to compile it using build.sh script is kernel-headers package. You should also add arch-media-daemon to DEAMONS, and media-stub to MODULES.

With 2.6.25 there were some stupid api changes, a few things need to be renamed like in this quickfix:

http://greblus.net/trunk/changes_2.6.25.diff

If you apply this quickfix, the code won't compile on 2.6.24 - feel free to add some #ifdefs, but the driver doesn't work well on 2.6.25 anyway (I've a different tuner, HVR900. Maybe your device works well). Video is slowing down/speeding up and mplayer is complaining about my cpu being too slow. I haven't reported it to Markus yet, as I'm more interested now in getting the 'in kernel' driver to work: all i need is to have composite input correctly supported. I've an external DVB-S tuner connected to my laptop through HVR-900 right now and the mainline driver seems to be lacking PAL-DK support (I get hiss instead of audio).

Hope this helps.

Re: pinnacle usb hybrid pro stick 330e won't work

I tried it with the em2880-new driver today, and with succes,

i had to get 3 files from somewhere else, lgdt330x.h: mt2060.h:qt1010.h:
but found them somewhere( they gave compile errors)


in kaffeine I got easy support, and it runs like an antilope.
