Looking at it again this morning, it seems this depends only on the width of the captured frame. It always seems to happen for widths between 374 and 385, independent of the frame height, bits per pixel, or transfer address. Real easy to reproduce: "fxtv -geometry 384x345" No ideas jump to my mind on this one. Any thoughts? At first I thought it might have been a bandwidth limitation being exceeded, but observing the same wavy lines for the same frame width range in both 2Bpp and 3Bpp modes probably shoots that idea down.

Well, if you try to use fxtv to encode mpeg files the disk requirement is width * height * 16 * 2 per frame vs (width * height + (width * height) / 2). Where we get a big hit is on the disk requirement . fxtv first saves the video stream in raw format then it converts to tiff or ppm which doubles the disk requirement. Additionally, it takes time to convert the raw video stream to ppm or tiff format. Last but not least the thruput requirement for the disk is less than for raw video format which is (width*height*2) * 30 / sec. ftp://rah.star-gate.com/pub/bt848-yuv.tar.gz The tar contains yuv12capture.c a sample program on how to capture yuv and mpeg_encode's param file, foo.param. to encode: cat file | mpeg_encode foo.param I will check in the yuv12 support on Wednesday hopefully after the current round of bt848 patches have been checked in. If it should prove that YUV support for FXTV is tedious to add I will extend and enhance slightly yuv12capture.c to support both video and audio.

I downloaded the raencoder from realaudio. It seems to work pretty fast (much faster than realtime on my P133) so i thought "let's try with a live source". Unfortunately it coredumps when trying to access a live source -- at lest with my audio driver. I tried to circumvent the problem by setting the input to /dev/fd/0 and piping in the output of "pcmio" but this does not work since a 'q' from stdin is interpreted as a command to stop. So I guess my only chance is to resort to using a named pipe ?

I am working on that, but I don't have a card so I cannot do the testing, which is highly demotivating, being the ESS somewhat different from other cards. If someone wants to send me an ESS audio card, having a working driver will be a matter of a couple of weeks. The GUS driver came out thanks to a card kindly donated by ISI-East. I would buy one if i could find it here, but since local stores do not carry this card I should special order it, and believe me, it is a big waste of time since most stores think that all audio cards are the same and why don't I want a SoundBlaster(TM) anyways... Also, realize that many ESS chips (688/1688) are half duplex, so yes, they are better than nothing, but no more than that!

Unhappily I did not make my self clear. Let me give an example : according Turtle Beach, the sound card Malibu is hardware full duplex 16-bit PnP compatible. But I am not sure if it will work on FreeBSD ("chances are that it works"). I need to know the name of the full duplex sound cards successfully tested on FreeBSD by all the folks.

Basically, if you see a card which is advertised as "16-bit compatible " and it is PnP, chances are that it works with my driver. Also if you see references to WSS/MSS, that should be a good indication. As well as the use of Crystal 423x, OPTI931, Yamaha SA-2 ... The only exception might be ESS cards which are not full duplex anyways. Cheers Luigi Are the ESS chips supported in native mode or just Sound Blaster compatible mode? These suckers are showing up in a lot of notebook computers and it would be great to be able to access all features in 16-bit mode.

The Diamond 1000 with GLint support is also a possibility, since it has a built-in connector for the glasses, but my understanding (from Mesa) is that GLint support is still pre-Alpha quality. I'm willing to invest substantial programming effort in this, but I'd like to bootstrap from whereever the current starting line is.

More info on the remote control at http://www.x10.com If anyone knows anything about the low level protocol for the Mouse-Remote please post so far I can use it with my logitech mouse. The IR unit comes with an rs232 connector so you attach your mouse to it. So far , my Remote-Mouse can act as microsoft mouse and I can still use my packet radio logitech mouse. Not sure how to proceed with the remote-mouse to write a separate utility or to just modify the X server to make it aware of my Remote-Mouse.

I just wanted to do one bit of patching at a time, and OSS had always sounded interesting. So far I've only played a few .au files with it, though. Getting the MIDI stuff to work takes a bit more setting up, it looks like (at least for the AWE 64). Thanks again!

This is premature to me doing some research, all I know about this card is that someone bought it a long time ago (it's VERY old isn't it?).. I haven't seen a man page containing any info.. I find no mention of it in LINT, so I guess on it's own it's not one device! On the card you've got: SIGMA designs EM7000, EM7010, EM7040 & EM7050 chips. ad1847 soundport. cirrus logic clgd5200 adsp 2115 It works under dos/windows (only just) as a soundblaster (old steam powered version ?) okay, so I guess I could use it for that, although there's a dos utility which turns on and off the sound side of the card. (I expect this might cause problems?) Other than that, I'd be interested in getting the mpeg side of the card working.. That'd be nice.. Any ideas ? Steve -- Steve Roome - Vision Interactive Ltd.

I've searched through it is highly suspect that you were so lucky that the only frequency you can tune is the one of your VCR! are you sure some setting is not correct causing the card to input from the composite video in, irrespective of the actual channel you are using ?

I have a Deskpro/i, with the older (unenhanced) support, so this information is practically useless to me. FWIW, this cards are supported by the latest OSS/Free for Linux. http://www.4front-tech.com/ossfree/ I hope someone finds a good use for this. Pedro. __________Date: May 1994 Part Number: 002A/1093 The enhanced business audio interface is I/O mapped and has three types of registers associated with it: o Sound system setup registers that set up the audio interface for MWSS compatibility. o Audio configuration registers that configure the audio interface for IRQ and DMA. o Audio operation registers that control the operation of the audio interface. The enhanced business audio is configurable to be MWSS compatible without the need for additional drivers. This is a change from the audio interface used in the Compaq Deskpro/i family, which required special drivers for full MWSS compatibility. Sound System Setup Registers The audio interface is configured through four I/O addresses. Using bank switching, seven registers (the eighth is reserved) are used for setting up the audio interface. Table 7-2 lists the Sound System Setup Registers, which are described in the following paragraphs. Table 7-2. Sound System Setup Registers =========================================================================== Address Register R/W =========================================================================== 0C44h Audio Configuration R/W 0C45h FM Address Decode/MWSS ID R/W 0C46h FM Address Decode/Address ASIC ID R/W 0C47h FM Address Decode R/W =========================================================================== Audio Configuration Register (0C44h, Read/Write) This register controls the general configuration of the enhanced business audio interface. Note that only bit <2> is present in both banks and, in fact, is the only bit present in bank 1 at the 0C44h address. Bank 0 Value after reset = 01000000 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7,6 Audio Revision Bits 00 = Compaq Business Audio 01 = Microsoft Sound System Compatible (reset default) 10 = Reserved 11 = Reserved 5 No Wait State (NOWS-) Enable 0 = Disabled (reset default, DMA mode) 1 = Enabled (programmed I/O mode) 4 Microsoft Sound System Decode Enable 0 = Decoding disabled (reset default) 1 = Decoding enabled 3 FM Synthesis Decode Enable 0 = Decoding disabled (reset default) 1 = Decoding enabled 2 Bank Select 0 = Bank 0 (reset default) 1 = Bank 1 1.0 Microsoft Sound System Base Address 00 = 0530:0537h (reset default) 01 = 0604:060Bh 10 = 0F40:0F47h 11 = 0E80:0E87h Bank 1 Value after reset = 00000000 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..3 Reserved - read 0s 2 Bank Select 0 = Bank 0 (reset default) 1 = Bank 1 1,0 Reserved - read 0s FM Address Decode/MWSS ID Register (0C45h, Read/Write) This register contains decode compare bits for the FM synthesis logic and also contains the MWSS ID value. Bank 0 Value after reset = 10001000 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..1 FM Synthesis Decode Compare Bits <7:1>. (reset default value = 88h) 0 PBIC Power Control Bit: 0 = Powered up 1 = Powered down Bank 1 Value after reset = 00010001 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..2 MWSS ID - 04h. Any read from 530-533h should yield these bits, but as D5-D0 when read by MWSS. 1,0 Reserved. FM Address Decode/Address ASIC Revision Register (0C46h Read/Write) This register contains decode compare bits for the FM synthesis logic and also contains the revision number for the audio addressing ASIC. Bank 0 Value after reset = 00000011 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..0 FM Synthesis Decode Compare Bits <15:8>. (reset default value = 03h) Bank 1 Value after reset = 00010001 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..0 Audio Addressing ASIC ID. Value = 11h minimum. FM Address Decode Register (0C47h Read/Write) This register (in bank 0) sets the decode range for the FM synthesis logic. The bank 1 register is reserved. Bank 0 Value after reset = 01111100 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bits <15:12> Enable. 0 = Do not use bits <15:12> 1 = Use bits <15:12> 6 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bits <11:10> Enable. 0 = Do not use bits <11:10> 1 = Use bits <11:10> 5 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bit <5> Enable. 0 = Do not use bit <5> 1 = Use bit <5> 4 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bit <4> Enable. 0 = Do not use bit <4> 1 = Use bit <4> 3 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bit <3> Enable. 0 = Do not use bit <3> 1 = Use bit <3> 2 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bit <2> Enable. 0 = Do not use bit <2> 1 = Use bit <2> 1 FM Synth. Decode Compare Bit <1> Enable. 0 = Do not use bit <1> 1 = Use bit <1> 0 General Purpose Bit 1 (GP1). Used to mute audio with XCTL0 from the PBIC. Bank 1 Value after reset = 00000000 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..0 Reserved. Audio Configuration Registers The audio configuration registers (listed in Table 7-3) are used to select IRQ and DMA and also allow complete disabling/enabling of the audio interface. Table 7-3. Audio Configuration Registers =========================================================================== Address Register R/W =========================================================================== 0530h-0533h Audio IRQ/DMA Mapping WO 0530h-0533h Audio IRQ/DMA Status RO 0C57h Audio Disable R/W =========================================================================== Audio IRQ/DMA Mapping Register (0530h, Write Only) This write-only register is used to select the IRQ and DMA to be used by the audio interface. Under MWSS control, a write to any one the first four addresses in the selected base address range will alias to the first address; i.e., a write to 0531h, 0532h, or 0533h will place the contents into 0530h. BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7,6 Reserved - write 0 5..3 IRQ Source Sense: 0 = Normal operation. IRQ selected by IRQ select word is enabled. Bit 6 of the read-only audio status register will sense a PBIC or an FM synthesis interrupt. 1 = All system IRQ lines are tri-stated. MWSS polls the IRQ selected by bits 5..3 for availability. The PBIC and FM interrupts will not figure in IRQ generation. 2..0 DMA Select. These bits select the DMA channel MWSS will use. 000 = playback + capture disabled 001 = playback 0, capture disabled 010 = playback 1, capture disabled 011 = playback 3, capture disabled 100 = playback disabled, capture 1 101 = playback 0, capture 1 110 = playback 1, capture 0 111 = playback 3, capture 0 Audio IRQ/DMA Status Register (0530h, Read Only) This read-only register is used to read what DMA channels are available and the status of IRQ sensing as determined by the write-only IRQ/DMA mapping register previously described. Under MWSS control, a read to any one the first four addresses in the selected base address range will alias to the first address; i.e., a read to 0531h, 0532h, or 0533h will yield the contents of 0530h. BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7 DMA channels available. (MWSS returns the state of SBHE-). 0 = DMA channels 0, 1, 3 and IRQs 7, 9, 10, and 11 are available. 1 = DMA channels 1 and 3 and IRQs 7 and 9 are available. 6 IRQ Sense: If IRQ/DMA mapping register bit <6> = 0 (normal operation): 0 = PBIC or FM synthesis interrupt is not active. 1 = PBIC or FM synthesis interrupt is active. If IRQ/DMA mapping register bit <6> = 1 : 0 = Selected system IRQ line is in use. 1 = Selected system IRQ line is free. 5..0 MWSS ID bits. MWSS uses these six bits to read the value written to 0C45h (bank 1) bits <7..2>. Bit <6> of the write-only IRQ/DMA mapping and read-only IRQ/DMA status registers allow for an FM synthesis interrupt to be detected. Software must, however, determine whether the PBIC or the FM synthesis generated the interrupt. Audio Disable Register (0C57h Read/Write) Bit <0> of this register can be used to disable the enhanced business audio interface. Bits <7..1> are reserved. Value after reset = 00000001 BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..1 Reserved - R/W 0s 0 Audio Enable/Disable 0 = Enabled 1 = Disabled (reset default) When bit <0> is set, decoding of the following addresses is inhibited: Address Function ------- -------- 0388h-038Bh FM synthesis 0530H-0537h audio configuration and operation (primary) 0604h-060Bh audio configuration and operation (alternate) 0C44h-0C47h sound system setup 0E80h-0E87h audio configuration and operation (alternate) 0F40h-0F47h audio configuration and operation (alternate) Audio Operation Registers The audio operation registers control the operation of the FM synthesis logic and PBIC. Consequently, the registers can be classified as the FM Synthesis Control Registers and the PBIC Control Registers. FM Synthesis Control Registers The FM synthesis logic is typically mapped at 0388h-038Bh. The YMF262 synthesizer component is used, which contains a total of 243 control registers divided into two banks. The YMF262's control registers are accessed by first writing the address of the control register to 0388h (for bank 0) or 038Ah (for bank 1) followed by writing the data to either 0389h or 038Bh. If a succeeding data byte is destined for the same control register, that control register's address need not be re-written. Basically, FM synthesis is a write-only operation; only one read, for status, is permitted. Table 7-4 lists the mapping of the FM synthesis logic. Table 7-4.

BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7 Initialization (RO) 0 = Audio ASIC is ready to handle digital I/O 1 = Audio ASIC is being initialized and digital I/O is disabled 6 Mode Change Enable 0 = Data Format and Data Interface registers cannot be changed. 1 = Data Format and Data Interface registers can be changed and audio activity is inhibited 5 Transfer Request Disable 0 = DMA transfers are enabled 1 = DMA transfers are disabled (DMA transfers possible only if Status register bit <0> is 0). 4 Reserved 3..0 Index Address. These bits define the address of the audio register accessed by Data Register. (Refer to Table 7-6) Data Register (535h or 609h, Read/Write) This register holds the data byte of the register indexed by the Index Register (Refer to Table 7-6). This register cannot be written to during initialization of the audio ASIC and will, during that time, read 10000000 (80h). Status Register (536h or 60Ah, Read/Write) BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7 Capture Byte Ready (read only) 0 = Lower byte ready 1 = Upper or 8-bit mode byte ready 6 Capture Left/Right Sample Ready (read only) 0 = Right channel data 1 = Left channel or mono data 5 Capture Data Ready (read only) 0 = Data is stale (do not reread) 1 = Data is fresh (has not been read) 4 Sample Overrun (read only). When set, this bit indicates that a sample was not processed in time and that either a capture overrun or a playback underrun has occurred. Note that if both capture and playback have been enabled, the activity that sets this bit cannot be determined. 3 Playback Byte Required (read only). 0 = Lower byte needed 1 = Upper or 8-bit mode byte 2 Playback Sample Required (read only). 0 = Right channel data needed 1 = Left channel or mono data needed 1 Playback Data Ready (read only). 0 = Data is fresh (do not overwrite) 1 = Data is stale, ready for new write 0 Interrupt Status (of audio ASIC). This bit is cleared by a write of any value to this register. Bit <1> of the Pin Control Register determines whether the INT pin of the audio ASIC reflects the state of this bit. 0 = Interrupt pin inactive 1 = Interrupt pin active Programmed I/O Data Register (537h or 60Bh, Read/Write) This is actually a pair of registers (one read only, the other write only) mapped at the same address. During audio ASIC initialization, this address cannot be written to and will read 10000000 (80h). A read to the address fetches a byte of digital audio data held in the Capture Data Register. Each read increments the audio ASIC state machine so that the following read will fetch the next byte of the sample. (The next byte to be read can be determined through the Status Register.) If the Capture Data Register does not receive the first byte of the next sample from the ADCs, then the next read will fetch the most significant byte of the last sample. A write to the address places a byte of digital audio data into the Playback Data Register. Each write increments the audio ASIC state machine so that the following write will be of the correct byte of the sample. When all bytes of a sample have been written, additional writes are ignored until the current sample is transferred to the DACs and the state machine is reset.

State after reset = 00001000 Loopback Control Register (Index 0Dh to 534h or 608h, Data to 535h or 609h, Read/Write) BIT FUNCTION ---------------- 7..2 Loopback Attenuation. These bits determine the amount of attenuation in the loopback from ADC to DAC in 1.5 db steps. Range of 0 to -96db. 1 Reserved 0 Loopback Enable. When set, enables the ADC output to be mixed (looped back) with other data to the DAC. DMA Base Count Registers (534h or 608h, Index 0Eh and 0Fh, Read/Write) The audio ASIC contains DMA count logic to notify the CPU when a DMA transfer is required. The DMA Base Count Registers hold the number of samples to be processed before an interrupt will be sent to the CPU. This value, held in the Upper Base Count Register (index 0Eh) and the Lower Base Count Register (index 0Fh) is loaded into the 16-bit Current Count Register at the start of each sampling cycle. As each sample is received (assuming either playback or capture has been enabled), the Current Count Register is decremented until zero is reached. The next sample will generate the interrupt and reload the Current Count Register with the value held in the Base Count Registers. Note that the Current Count Register is not accessible (cannot be read) by the CPU. Only the programmed base count can be read. When programming the Base Count Registers, write (the LSB) to the Lower Base Count Register first. Writing (the MSB) to the Upper Base Count Register automatically loads the value from both Base Count Registers to the Current Count Register.
