[pvrusb2] no audio with PAL and tda9887

Fri Dec 30 10:53:07 CST 2005

Hi list,

I seem to have one of the tda9887 devices, but I am not able to get  
it working. I have been trying various driver snapshots including the  
recent 20051226. This is on kernel 2.6.12. The problem is that I am  
getting the picture just fine, but have no audio with either the  
tuner or with the s-video or composite inputs. I have tried toggling  
the port1 and port2 options for the tda9887 module with no effect.

I am attaching the dmesg output in the hope that someone can give me  
clue what else I could try. Please note that I am in Germany, so I  
have a PAL unit. Since the driver selects SECAM-L by default, my  
first step is always to switch to PAL-BG with the sysfs interface.  
After that, I can run xine on /dev/video0 and see a clear picture,  
but no sound. I have verified that this is not a xine problem by  
passing the output of /dev/video0 to ffmpeg and extracting the audio  
to raw PCM. This gives an almost constant stream of zeroes with some  
intermittent spikes of higher values. Are there any other settings in  
sysfs that might be off or is it indeed a driver problem?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Michael
