1The bttv driver 2=============== 3 4Release notes for bttv 5---------------------- 6 7You'll need at least these config options for bttv: 8 9.. code-block:: none 10 11 CONFIG_I2C=m 12 CONFIG_I2C_ALGOBIT=m 13 CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=m 14 15The latest bttv version is available from http://bytesex.org/bttv/ 16 17 18Make bttv work with your card 19----------------------------- 20 21Just try "modprobe bttv" and see if that works. 22 23If it doesn't bttv likely could not autodetect your card and needs some 24insmod options. The most important insmod option for bttv is "card=n" 25to select the correct card type. If you get video but no sound you've 26very likely specified the wrong (or no) card type. A list of supported 27cards is in CARDLIST.bttv 28 29If bttv takes very long to load (happens sometimes with the cheap 30cards which have no tuner), try adding this to your modules.conf: 31 32.. code-block:: none 33 34 options i2c-algo-bit bit_test=1 35 36For the WinTV/PVR you need one firmware file from the driver CD: 37hcwamc.rbf. The file is in the pvr45xxx.exe archive (self-extracting 38zip file, unzip can unpack it). Put it into the /etc/pvr directory or 39use the firm_altera=<path> insmod option to point the driver to the 40location of the file. 41 42If your card isn't listed in CARDLIST.bttv or if you have trouble making 43audio work, you should read the Sound-FAQ. 44 45 46Autodetecting cards 47------------------- 48 49bttv uses the PCI Subsystem ID to autodetect the card type. lspci lists 50the Subsystem ID in the second line, looks like this: 51 52.. code-block:: none 53 54 00:0a.0 Multimedia video controller: Brooktree Corporation Bt878 (rev 02) 55 Subsystem: Hauppauge computer works Inc. WinTV/GO 56 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32, IRQ 5 57 Memory at e2000000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K] 58 59only bt878-based cards can have a subsystem ID (which does not mean 60that every card really has one). bt848 cards can't have a Subsystem 61ID and therefore can't be autodetected. There is a list with the ID's 62in bttv-cards.c (in case you are intrested or want to mail patches 63with updates). 64 65 66Still doesn't work? 67------------------- 68 69I do NOT have a lab with 30+ different grabber boards and a 70PAL/NTSC/SECAM test signal generator at home, so I often can't 71reproduce your problems. This makes debugging very difficult for me. 72If you have some knowledge and spare time, please try to fix this 73yourself (patches very welcome of course...) You know: The linux 74slogan is "Do it yourself". 75 76There is a mailing list at 77http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#linux-media 78 79If you have trouble with some specific TV card, try to ask there 80instead of mailing me directly. The chance that someone with the 81same card listens there is much higher... 82 83For problems with sound: There are a lot of different systems used 84for TV sound all over the world. And there are also different chips 85which decode the audio signal. Reports about sound problems ("stereo 86does'nt work") are pretty useless unless you include some details 87about your hardware and the TV sound scheme used in your country (or 88at least the country you are living in). 89 90Modprobe options 91---------------- 92 93Note: "modinfo <module>" prints various information about a kernel 94module, among them a complete and up-to-date list of insmod options. 95This list tends to be outdated because it is updated manually ... 96 97========================================================================== 98 99bttv.o 100 101.. code-block:: none 102 103 the bt848/878 (grabber chip) driver 104 105 insmod args: 106 card=n card type, see CARDLIST for a list. 107 tuner=n tuner type, see CARDLIST for a list. 108 radio=0/1 card supports radio 109 pll=0/1/2 pll settings 110 0: don't use PLL 111 1: 28 MHz crystal installed 112 2: 35 MHz crystal installed 113 114 triton1=0/1 for Triton1 (+others) compatibility 115 vsfx=0/1 yet another chipset bug compatibility bit 116 see README.quirks for details on these two. 117 118 bigendian=n Set the endianness of the gfx framebuffer. 119 Default is native endian. 120 fieldnr=0/1 Count fields. Some TV descrambling software 121 needs this, for others it only generates 122 50 useless IRQs/sec. default is 0 (off). 123 autoload=0/1 autoload helper modules (tuner, audio). 124 default is 1 (on). 125 bttv_verbose=0/1/2 verbose level (at insmod time, while 126 looking at the hardware). default is 1. 127 bttv_debug=0/1 debug messages (for capture). 128 default is 0 (off). 129 irq_debug=0/1 irq handler debug messages. 130 default is 0 (off). 131 gbuffers=2-32 number of capture buffers for mmap'ed capture. 132 default is 4. 133 gbufsize= size of capture buffers. default and 134 maximum value is 0x208000 (~2MB) 135 no_overlay=0 Enable overlay on broken hardware. There 136 are some chipsets (SIS for example) which 137 are known to have problems with the PCI DMA 138 push used by bttv. bttv will disable overlay 139 by default on this hardware to avoid crashes. 140 With this insmod option you can override this. 141 no_overlay=1 Disable overlay. It should be used by broken 142 hardware that doesn't support PCI2PCI direct 143 transfers. 144 automute=0/1 Automatically mutes the sound if there is 145 no TV signal, on by default. You might try 146 to disable this if you have bad input signal 147 quality which leading to unwanted sound 148 dropouts. 149 chroma_agc=0/1 AGC of chroma signal, off by default. 150 adc_crush=0/1 Luminance ADC crush, on by default. 151 i2c_udelay= Allow reduce I2C speed. Default is 5 usecs 152 (meaning 66,67 Kbps). The default is the 153 maximum supported speed by kernel bitbang 154 algorithm. You may use lower numbers, if I2C 155 messages are lost (16 is known to work on 156 all supported cards). 157 158 bttv_gpio=0/1 159 gpiomask= 160 audioall= 161 audiomux= 162 See Sound-FAQ for a detailed description. 163 164 remap, card, radio and pll accept up to four comma-separated arguments 165 (for multiple boards). 166 167tuner.o 168 169.. code-block:: none 170 171 The tuner driver. You need this unless you want to use only 172 with a camera or external tuner ... 173 174 insmod args: 175 debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog 176 type=n type of the tuner chip. n as follows: 177 see CARDLIST for a complete list. 178 pal=[bdgil] select PAL variant (used for some tuners 179 only, important for the audio carrier). 180 181tvaudio.o 182 183.. code-block:: none 184 185 new, experimental module which is supported to provide a single 186 driver for all simple i2c audio control chips (tda/tea*). 187 188 insmod args: 189 tda8425 = 1 enable/disable the support for the 190 tda9840 = 1 various chips. 191 tda9850 = 1 The tea6300 can't be autodetected and is 192 tda9855 = 1 therefore off by default, if you have 193 tda9873 = 1 this one on your card (STB uses these) 194 tda9874a = 1 you have to enable it explicitly. 195 tea6300 = 0 The two tda985x chips use the same i2c 196 tea6420 = 1 address and can't be disturgished from 197 pic16c54 = 1 each other, you might have to disable 198 the wrong one. 199 debug = 1 print debug messages 200 201 insmod args for tda9874a: 202 tda9874a_SIF=1/2 select sound IF input pin (1 or 2) 203 (default is pin 1) 204 tda9874a_AMSEL=0/1 auto-mute select for NICAM (default=0) 205 Please read note 3 below! 206 tda9874a_STD=n select TV sound standard (0..8): 207 0 - A2, B/G 208 1 - A2, M (Korea) 209 2 - A2, D/K (1) 210 3 - A2, D/K (2) 211 4 - A2, D/K (3) 212 5 - NICAM, I 213 6 - NICAM, B/G 214 7 - NICAM, D/K (default) 215 8 - NICAM, L 216 217 Note 1: tda9874a supports both tda9874h (old) and tda9874a (new) chips. 218 Note 2: tda9874h/a and tda9875 (which is supported separately by 219 tda9875.o) use the same i2c address so both modules should not be 220 used at the same time. 221 Note 3: Using tda9874a_AMSEL option depends on your TV card design! 222 AMSEL=0: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound 223 and the sound on 1st carrier (i.e. FM mono or AM). 224 AMSEL=1: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound 225 and the analog mono input (MONOIN pin). 226 If tda9874a decoder on your card has MONOIN pin not connected, then 227 use only tda9874_AMSEL=0 or don't specify this option at all. 228 For example: 229 card=65 (FlyVideo 2000S) - set AMSEL=1 or AMSEL=0 230 card=72 (Prolink PV-BT878P rev.9B) - set AMSEL=0 only 231 232msp3400.o 233 234.. code-block:: none 235 236 The driver for the msp34xx sound processor chips. If you have a 237 stereo card, you probably want to insmod this one. 238 239 insmod args: 240 debug=1/2 print some debug info to the syslog, 241 2 is more verbose. 242 simple=1 Use the "short programming" method. Newer 243 msp34xx versions support this. You need this 244 for dbx stereo. Default is on if supported by 245 the chip. 246 once=1 Don't check the TV-stations Audio mode 247 every few seconds, but only once after 248 channel switches. 249 amsound=1 Audio carrier is AM/NICAM at 6.5 Mhz. This 250 should improve things for french people, the 251 carrier autoscan seems to work with FM only... 252 253tea6300.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead) 254 255.. code-block:: none 256 257 The driver for the tea6300 fader chip. If you have a stereo 258 card and the msp3400.o doesn't work, you might want to try this 259 one. This chip is seen on most STB TV/FM cards (usually from 260 Gateway OEM sold surplus on auction sites). 261 262 insmod args: 263 debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. 264 265tda8425.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead) 266 267.. code-block:: none 268 269 The driver for the tda8425 fader chip. This driver used to be 270 part of bttv.c, so if your sound used to work but does not 271 anymore, try loading this module. 272 273 insmod args: 274 debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. 275 276tda985x.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead) 277 278.. code-block:: none 279 280 The driver for the tda9850/55 audio chips. 281 282 insmod args: 283 debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. 284 chip=9850/9855 set the chip type. 285 286 287If the box freezes hard with bttv 288--------------------------------- 289 290It might be a bttv driver bug. It also might be bad hardware. It also 291might be something else ... 292 293Just mailing me "bttv freezes" isn't going to help much. This README 294has a few hints how you can help to pin down the problem. 295 296 297bttv bugs 298~~~~~~~~~ 299 300If some version works and another doesn't it is likely to be a driver 301bug. It is very helpful if you can tell where exactly it broke 302(i.e. the last working and the first broken version). 303 304With a hard freeze you probably doesn't find anything in the logfiles. 305The only way to capture any kernel messages is to hook up a serial 306console and let some terminal application log the messages. /me uses 307screen. See Documentation/admin-guide/serial-console.rst for details on setting 308up a serial console. 309 310Read Documentation/admin-guide/bug-hunting.rst to learn how to get any useful 311information out of a register+stack dump printed by the kernel on 312protection faults (so-called "kernel oops"). 313 314If you run into some kind of deadlock, you can try to dump a call trace 315for each process using sysrq-t (see Documentation/admin-guide/sysrq.rst). 316This way it is possible to figure where *exactly* some process in "D" 317state is stuck. 318 319I've seen reports that bttv 0.7.x crashes whereas 0.8.x works rock solid 320for some people. Thus probably a small buglet left somewhere in bttv 3210.7.x. I have no idea where exactly, it works stable for me and a lot of 322other people. But in case you have problems with the 0.7.x versions you 323can give 0.8.x a try ... 324 325 326hardware bugs 327~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 328 329Some hardware can't deal with PCI-PCI transfers (i.e. grabber => vga). 330Sometimes problems show up with bttv just because of the high load on 331the PCI bus. The bt848/878 chips have a few workarounds for known 332incompatibilities, see README.quirks. 333 334Some folks report that increasing the pci latency helps too, 335althrought I'm not sure whenever this really fixes the problems or 336only makes it less likely to happen. Both bttv and btaudio have a 337insmod option to set the PCI latency of the device. 338 339Some mainboard have problems to deal correctly with multiple devices 340doing DMA at the same time. bttv + ide seems to cause this sometimes, 341if this is the case you likely see freezes only with video and hard disk 342access at the same time. Updating the IDE driver to get the latest and 343greatest workarounds for hardware bugs might fix these problems. 344 345 346other 347~~~~~ 348 349If you use some binary-only yunk (like nvidia module) try to reproduce 350the problem without. 351 352IRQ sharing is known to cause problems in some cases. It works just 353fine in theory and many configurations. Neverless it might be worth a 354try to shuffle around the PCI cards to give bttv another IRQ or make 355it share the IRQ with some other piece of hardware. IRQ sharing with 356VGA cards seems to cause trouble sometimes. I've also seen funny 357effects with bttv sharing the IRQ with the ACPI bridge (and 358apci-enabled kernel). 359 360Bttv quirks 361----------- 362 363Below is what the bt878 data book says about the PCI bug compatibility 364modes of the bt878 chip. 365 366The triton1 insmod option sets the EN_TBFX bit in the control register. 367The vsfx insmod option does the same for EN_VSFX bit. If you have 368stability problems you can try if one of these options makes your box 369work solid. 370 371drivers/pci/quirks.c knows about these issues, this way these bits are 372enabled automagically for known-buggy chipsets (look at the kernel 373messages, bttv tells you). 374 375Normal PCI Mode 376~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 377 378The PCI REQ signal is the logical-or of the incoming function requests. 379The inter-nal GNT[0:1] signals are gated asynchronously with GNT and 380demultiplexed by the audio request signal. Thus the arbiter defaults to 381the video function at power-up and parks there during no requests for 382bus access. This is desirable since the video will request the bus more 383often. However, the audio will have highest bus access priority. Thus 384the audio will have first access to the bus even when issuing a request 385after the video request but before the PCI external arbiter has granted 386access to the Bt879. Neither function can preempt the other once on the 387bus. The duration to empty the entire video PCI FIFO onto the PCI bus is 388very short compared to the bus access latency the audio PCI FIFO can 389tolerate. 390 391 392430FX Compatibility Mode 393~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 394 395When using the 430FX PCI, the following rules will ensure 396compatibility: 397 398 (1) Deassert REQ at the same time as asserting FRAME. 399 (2) Do not reassert REQ to request another bus transaction until after 400 finish-ing the previous transaction. 401 402Since the individual bus masters do not have direct control of REQ, a 403simple logical-or of video and audio requests would violate the rules. 404Thus, both the arbiter and the initiator contain 430FX compatibility 405mode logic. To enable 430FX mode, set the EN_TBFX bit as indicated in 406Device Control Register on page 104. 407 408When EN_TBFX is enabled, the arbiter ensures that the two compatibility 409rules are satisfied. Before GNT is asserted by the PCI arbiter, this 410internal arbiter may still logical-or the two requests. However, once 411the GNT is issued, this arbiter must lock in its decision and now route 412only the granted request to the REQ pin. The arbiter decision lock 413happens regardless of the state of FRAME because it does not know when 414FRAME will be asserted (typically - each initiator will assert FRAME on 415the cycle following GNT). When FRAME is asserted, it is the initiator s 416responsibility to remove its request at the same time. It is the 417arbiters responsibility to allow this request to flow through to REQ and 418not allow the other request to hold REQ asserted. The decision lock may 419be removed at the end of the transaction: for example, when the bus is 420idle (FRAME and IRDY). The arbiter decision may then continue 421asynchronously until GNT is again asserted. 422 423 424Interfacing with Non-PCI 2.1 Compliant Core Logic 425~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 426 427A small percentage of core logic devices may start a bus transaction 428during the same cycle that GNT is de-asserted. This is non PCI 2.1 429compliant. To ensure compatibility when using PCs with these PCI 430controllers, the EN_VSFX bit must be enabled (refer to Device Control 431Register on page 104). When in this mode, the arbiter does not pass GNT 432to the internal functions unless REQ is asserted. This prevents a bus 433transaction from starting the same cycle as GNT is de-asserted. This 434also has the side effect of not being able to take advantage of bus 435parking, thus lowering arbitration performance. The Bt879 drivers must 436query for these non-compliant devices, and set the EN_VSFX bit only if 437required. 438 439bttv and sound mini howto 440------------------------- 441 442There are a lot of different bt848/849/878/879 based boards available. 443Making video work often is not a big deal, because this is handled 444completely by the bt8xx chip, which is common on all boards. But 445sound is handled in slightly different ways on each board. 446 447To handle the grabber boards correctly, there is a array tvcards[] in 448bttv-cards.c, which holds the information required for each board. 449Sound will work only, if the correct entry is used (for video it often 450makes no difference). The bttv driver prints a line to the kernel 451log, telling which card type is used. Like this one: 452 453.. code-block:: none 454 455 bttv0: model: BT848(Hauppauge old) [autodetected] 456 457You should verify this is correct. If it isn't, you have to pass the 458correct board type as insmod argument, "insmod bttv card=2" for 459example. The file CARDLIST has a list of valid arguments for card. 460If your card isn't listed there, you might check the source code for 461new entries which are not listed yet. If there isn't one for your 462card, you can check if one of the existing entries does work for you 463(just trial and error...). 464 465Some boards have an extra processor for sound to do stereo decoding 466and other nice features. The msp34xx chips are used by Hauppauge for 467example. If your board has one, you might have to load a helper 468module like msp3400.o to make sound work. If there isn't one for the 469chip used on your board: Bad luck. Start writing a new one. Well, 470you might want to check the video4linux mailing list archive first... 471 472Of course you need a correctly installed soundcard unless you have the 473speakers connected directly to the grabber board. Hint: check the 474mixer settings too. ALSA for example has everything muted by default. 475 476 477How sound works in detail 478~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 479 480Still doesn't work? Looks like some driver hacking is required. 481Below is a do-it-yourself description for you. 482 483The bt8xx chips have 32 general purpose pins, and registers to control 484these pins. One register is the output enable register 485(BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN), it says which pins are actively driven by the 486bt848 chip. Another one is the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA), where 487you can get/set the status if these pins. They can be used for input 488and output. 489 490Most grabber board vendors use these pins to control an external chip 491which does the sound routing. But every board is a little different. 492These pins are also used by some companies to drive remote control 493receiver chips. Some boards use the i2c bus instead of the gpio pins 494to connect the mux chip. 495 496As mentioned above, there is a array which holds the required 497information for each known board. You basically have to create a new 498line for your board. The important fields are these two: 499 500.. code-block:: c 501 502 struct tvcard 503 { 504 [ ... ] 505 u32 gpiomask; 506 u32 audiomux[6]; /* Tuner, Radio, external, internal, mute, stereo */ 507 }; 508 509gpiomask specifies which pins are used to control the audio mux chip. 510The corresponding bits in the output enable register 511(BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN) will be set as these pins must be driven by the 512bt848 chip. 513 514The audiomux\[\] array holds the data values for the different inputs 515(i.e. which pins must be high/low for tuner/mute/...). This will be 516written to the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA) to switch the audio 517mux. 518 519 520What you have to do is figure out the correct values for gpiomask and 521the audiomux array. If you have Windows and the drivers four your 522card installed, you might to check out if you can read these registers 523values used by the windows driver. A tool to do this is available 524from ftp://telepresence.dmem.strath.ac.uk/pub/bt848/winutil, but it 525doesn't work with bt878 boards according to some reports I received. 526Another one with bt878 support is available from 527http://btwincap.sourceforge.net/Files/btspy2.00.zip 528 529You might also dig around in the \*.ini files of the Windows applications. 530You can have a look at the board to see which of the gpio pins are 531connected at all and then start trial-and-error ... 532 533 534Starting with release 0.7.41 bttv has a number of insmod options to 535make the gpio debugging easier: 536 537.. code-block:: none 538 539 bttv_gpio=0/1 enable/disable gpio debug messages 540 gpiomask=n set the gpiomask value 541 audiomux=i,j,... set the values of the audiomux array 542 audioall=a set the values of the audiomux array (one 543 value for all array elements, useful to check 544 out which effect the particular value has). 545 546The messages printed with bttv_gpio=1 look like this: 547 548.. code-block:: none 549 550 bttv0: gpio: en=00000027, out=00000024 in=00ffffd8 [audio: off] 551 552 en = output _en_able register (BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN) 553 out = _out_put bits of the data register (BT848_GPIO_DATA), 554 i.e. BT848_GPIO_DATA & BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN 555 in = _in_put bits of the data register, 556 i.e. BT848_GPIO_DATA & ~BT848_GPIO_OUT_EN 557 558 559 560Other elements of the tvcards array 561~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 562 563If you are trying to make a new card work you might find it useful to 564know what the other elements in the tvcards array are good for: 565 566.. code-block:: none 567 568 video_inputs - # of video inputs the card has 569 audio_inputs - historical cruft, not used any more. 570 tuner - which input is the tuner 571 svhs - which input is svhs (all others are labeled composite) 572 muxsel - video mux, input->registervalue mapping 573 pll - same as pll= insmod option 574 tuner_type - same as tuner= insmod option 575 *_modulename - hint whenever some card needs this or that audio 576 module loaded to work properly. 577 has_radio - whenever this TV card has a radio tuner. 578 no_msp34xx - "1" disables loading of msp3400.o module 579 no_tda9875 - "1" disables loading of tda9875.o module 580 needs_tvaudio - set to "1" to load tvaudio.o module 581 582If some config item is specified both from the tvcards array and as 583insmod option, the insmod option takes precedence. 584 585Cards 586----- 587 588.. note:: 589 590 For a more updated list, please check 591 https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hardware_Device_Information 592 593Supported cards: Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 cards 594~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 595 596All cards with Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 and normal 597Composite/S-VHS inputs are supported.

They have also stuck an 931infra-red remote control decoded on the board, I will add support for this 932when I get time (it simple generates an interrupt for each key press, with 933the key code is placed in the GPIO port). 934 935I don't yet have any application to test the radio support. The tuner 936frequency setting should work but it is possible that the audio multiplexer 937is wrong. If it doesn't work, send me email. 938 939 940- No Thanks to Leadtek they refused to answer any questions about their 941 hardware. The driver was written by visual inspection of the card. If you 942 use this driver, send an email insult to them, and tell them you won't 943 continue buying their hardware unless they support Linux. 944 945- Little thanks to Princeton Technology Corp (http://www.princeton.com.tw) 946 who make the audio attenuator. Their publicly available data-sheet available 947 on their web site doesn't include the chip programming information!
