Description Heber Vazquez 2010-12-30 22:37:03 UTC
I have a PVR-150. Under Fedora 13 it worked properly but under Fedora 14 with latest kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64 the PVR card always gets horrible static added to its audio. This happens even with a cat from /dev/video0 and moving the resulting file to another computer to play, so it's independent of system sound configuration.

Is the same problem that is reported on that link: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/devel/41212

Comment 1 Heber Vazquez 2010-12-30 22:38:42 UTC
I think the problem is related the the lates 2 kernel update not directly with the ivtv-firmware or ivtv-utils.

Comment 2 Jarod Wilson 2011-01-01 05:52:47 UTC
Its an upstream kernel issue:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/27381

Will see about getting that reverted in the F14 kernel as well.

Comment 3 Gilboa Davara 2011-01-04 19:47:53 UTC
I tried reverting all the wm8775.[ch] changes alone, but had no luck. (ivtv stopped working completely)

I assume that I must also revert all the changes to cx88 as well?

Comment 4 Gilboa Davara 2011-01-04 20:00:35 UTC
Checked the code, cx88 seems unrelated. Ugh.

Comment 5 Gilboa Davara 2011-01-04 20:05:56 UTC
... Strike that. reverted code works. (Or semi works, I get mono-sounds, but that's a long running issue with my card...)
If anyone wants reverted driver + Makefile, please let me know.

Comment 6 Jarod Wilson 2011-01-04 20:22:39 UTC
I'll get an update into the F14 kernel as soon as I can, but I've got two additional issues I'm trying to chase down as well first.

Comment 7 Jarod Wilson 2011-01-06 03:57:15 UTC
Patch queued up for inclusion in a build in just a moment...

Comment 8 Jarod Wilson 2011-01-06 04:53:33 UTC
2.6.35.10-76.fc14 is building right now.

The koji build fixed the problem for my system
