This is a FreeBSD (Unix) forum. Yes, I know that it is a FreeBSD forum. For my purposes, the OS is secondary, and functionality is primary. I really would just like to see the code to look at how it constructs the RISC program for the bt848. I am working on an application that demands very high performance out of the capture card and I want to cut down on system-wide bus utilization due to buffer copies. I want to be able to convince the authors of the ISVRIII's Win95/98 driver that changes can indeed be made to significantly improve performance. If I need to set up a FreeBSD machine in the lab to get this done, then fine. We've got a Linux system, but I haven't yet been able to get the bttv driver because the connection to their web server always dies. I asked them to send me the code as well. Also, I haven't had much luck with bttv on my Linux system at home. - Eric Palmer Intel MD6 Architecture To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Mon Apr 6 12:18:30 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA13406 for freebsd-multimedia-outgoing; Mon, 6 Apr 1998 12:18:30 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (rah.star-gate.com [209.133.7.234]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id MAA13392 for ; Mon, 6 Apr 1998 12:18:28 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hasty@rah.star-gate.com) Received: (from hasty@localhost) by rah.star-gate.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) id MAA05374 for multimedia@freebsd.org; Mon, 6 Apr 1998 12:18:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hasty) Date: Mon, 6 Apr 1998 12:18:23 -0700 (PDT) From: Amancio Hasty Message-Id: <199804061918.MAA05374@rah.star-gate.com> To: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Eric & Intel Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Okay guys, I just taken care of Eric .

I can successfully view the TV tuner output in a window on my |screen. | |However, when that window is visible (i.e. not hidden behind any other |windows), it causes the rest of my screen to become garbled, so that |all windows (xterms, my Netscape browser, etc.) become virtually |unreadable. | |If the window is hidden behind another, nothing gets garbled. Right. If you run "fxtv -disableDirectV" or put "*disableDirectV: true" in your Fxtv resource file or .Xdefaults, you'll not have this problem when its on top either. However that's the fall-back plan. You'd prefer for direct video to work if possible. When the window is on top, fxtv configures the capture card to write directly to your frame buffer directly rather than through X (very fast and low overhead). Works great as long as Fxtv can determine your frame buffer memory aperature's geometry from the X server. If you're running in a 24 or 32 bits-per-pixel video mode, here are some things to try to get your direct video configured up correctly: fxtv -colorbars -xrm "Fxtv.Bpp24bit: 3" fxtv -colorbars -xrm "Fxtv.Bpp24bit: 4" fxtv -colorbars -xrm "Fxtv.Bpp32bit: 3" fxtv -colorbars -xrm "Fxtv.Bpp32bit: 4" See if one of these doesn't get the TV all inside the window. If you find one that works, insert it into your Fxtv resource file or .Xdefaults. However given that you have a 2Meg video card as you said, I suspect you're probably running 16-bit in which case these don't help you. If so, this is an indication that the X server drivers for your card aren't returning the correct frame buffer memory aperture geometry for it, and disabling direct video is your best course of action for now. Higher CPU utilization and slower frame rates, but you won't get screen corruption. I'll be happy to help you trace this down. Let me know what you find out, and send me the output of "fxtv -debug startup" and "xdpyinfo". We can determine if this is the X server's fault or not, and if so, you can flip in a bug report to XFree. |The same thing happens when I use the Windows software that came with the |card. Hmm. Sounds like the Windoze Direct* drivers are confused about your frame buffer geometry as well.

Well.... (sheepishly) no I didn't. It wasn't clear to me what devices needed to be created, or whether it used the same devices as the voxware driver - that is why I asked the question originally. I have since gone ahead and did a "sh MAKEDEV snd1" to create all the audio1, mixer1, etc devices, and the links to audio, mixer, etc. (since Luigi's driver says that pnp devices have to use audio1 rather than audio0). The VAT application device error messages have gone away, however I still get no audio, and the meter doesn't budge. How does pcm1 communicate with audio1?

Is there anyone willing to make a port of those tools ?

(I mean the config the *card* thinks it's in, not the one the kernel thinks it's in). I do not have pnp0 enabled in the kernel, so the device is configured as such: device pcm0 at isa? port ? tty irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 vector pcmintr and dmsg says pcm0 at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 on isa if my card *is* misconfigured, then how do i know? (i suppose i could boot -c and set it a particular way, huh? does userconfig show the correct info as probed from the pnp card?) finally, if i drop the irq, drq, and flags from the kernel config and replace them with ?'s, and enable pnp0, will the kernel just magically (aka pnp) figure these out and configure the card?

We are using the Hauppauge WincastTV. It sometimes decides it is PAL. I've been trying to find out why we received a PAL card in the U.S. I'm guessing we have the right cards and are experiencing what Mr. Burr is?

An update to my situation: I upgraded my video card to an ATI 3D Pro Turbo (3D Rage/Mach 64 based), and the "mess up the screen" problem has disappeared under both FreeBSD and Windows. It looks like my old Cirrus card was, in fact, at fault. I'm still having the occasional "NTSC detected as PAL" problem, though. -- Donald Burr Web: http://DonaldBurr.base.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Apr 8 10:15:16 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id KAA13824 for freebsd-multimedia-outgoing; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 10:15:16 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (rah.star-gate.com [209.133.7.234]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA13817 for ; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 10:15:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hasty@rah.star-gate.com) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (localhost.star-gate.com [127.0.0.1]) by rah.star-gate.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id KAA02133 for ; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 10:15:12 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hasty@rah.star-gate.com) Message-Id: <199804081715.KAA02133@rah.star-gate.com> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: mbone, audio, and video problems.

I am pretty sure the IRQ handling logic in the OPTI is broken and does not handle races properly (since at times the board also misses interrupts, which was fatal when using single dma-mode), and this is just another symptom. cheers luigi -----------------------------+-------------------------------------- Luigi Rizzo | Dip. di Ingegneria dell'Informazione email: luigi@iet.unipi.it | Universita' di Pisa tel: +39-50-568533 | via Diotisalvi 2, 56126 PISA (Italy) fax: +39-50-568522 | http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ _____________________________|______________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Apr 8 20:34:40 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA11907 for freebsd-multimedia-outgoing; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 20:34:40 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from euthyphro.uchicago.edu (euthyphro.uchicago.edu [128.135.21.31]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA11893 for ; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 20:34:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from sfarrell@phaedrus.uchicago.edu) Received: from phaedrus.uchicago.edu (phaedrus [128.135.21.10]) by euthyphro.uchicago.edu (8.8.6/8.8.4) with ESMTP id WAA17631; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 22:34:30 -0500 (CDT) Received: (from sfarrell@localhost) by phaedrus.uchicago.edu (8.8.8/8.8.5) id WAA05093; Wed, 8 Apr 1998 22:34:29 -0500 (CDT) To: Luigi Rizzo Cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: pnp0 not helpful References: <199804081924.VAA05622@labinfo.iet.unipi.it> From: stephen farrell Mime-Version: 1.0 (generated by tm-edit 7.108) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Date: 08 Apr 1998 22:34:28 -0500 In-Reply-To: Luigi Rizzo's message of "Wed, 8 Apr 1998 21:24:53 +0200 (MET DST)" Message-ID: <87n2dv3by3.fsf@phaedrus.uchicago.edu> Lines: 31 X-Mailer: Gnus v5.6.3/XEmacs 20.3 - "Vatican City" Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Luigi Rizzo writes: > > Probing for PnP devices: > > CSN 1 Vendor ID: CTL0028 [0x28008c0e] Serial 0x1008415c > > pcm1 (SB16pnp sn 0x1008415c) at 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 id 9 > > this looks ok... > > > WARNING: wrintr but write DMA inactive! > > WARNING: wrintr but write DMA inactive! > > WARNING: wrintr but write DMA inactive! > > this does not.... just a curiosity, which version of the driver are you > using ?

You can only get the NTSC ones in the US and canada, so if you order from European distributors you should get a pal one. > c) How much does it cost?

I realize that I can only have one FM chip, but I'm only in general, yes. In practice, it depends on the driver and also if the two cards are configurable at different addresses -- and quite a few cheap PnP boards do not have a unique serial number making them undistinguishable :( In the specific case, my driver (device pcm0) supports multiple boards of the same type for all cards it knows, so you might be able to achieve what you need using the OPTI in 16-bit mode (WSS clone) and maybe the PAS in SB emulation (but i am not sure my driver will recognize the PAS -- i have not been very careful in supporting obsolete hardware). Personally i have run up to 3 boards in my machine. Voxware driver has some restrictions with multiple devices. > looking to pick up the extra dsp and mixer.

A CLONE might have a proprietary 16-bit mode of operation known to windows and in this mode (not in SBPro emulation) it does 16bit. cheers luigi -----------------------------+-------------------------------------- Luigi Rizzo | Dip. di Ingegneria dell'Informazione email: luigi@iet.unipi.it | Universita' di Pisa tel: +39-50-568533 | via Diotisalvi 2, 56126 PISA (Italy) fax: +39-50-568522 | http://www.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/ _____________________________|______________________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Sat Apr 11 19:16:13 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id TAA24808 for freebsd-multimedia-outgoing; Sat, 11 Apr 1998 19:16:13 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from allegro.lemis.com (allegro.lemis.com [192.109.197.134]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id TAA24679; Sat, 11 Apr 1998 19:15:27 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from grog@lemis.com) Received: from freebie.lemis.com (freebie.lemis.com [192.109.197.137]) by allegro.lemis.com (8.8.7/8.8.5) with ESMTP id LAA21864; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 11:45:22 +0930 (CST) Received: (from grog@localhost) by freebie.lemis.com (8.8.8/8.8.7) id LAA24215; Sun, 12 Apr 1998 11:45:20 +0930 (CST) (envelope-from grog) Message-ID: <19980412114520.A24192@freebie.lemis.com> Date: Sun, 12 Apr 1998 11:45:20 +0930 From: Greg Lehey To: Amancio Hasty , Cory Kempf Cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG, freebsd-current@FreeBSD.ORG, FreeBSD Chat Subject: Re: Sound on DK440LX?

I've currently been evangalizing a little on -questions to get people running -CURRENT to post their views on -CURRENT. What do you people think? Is that still the right thing to do when the question relates to multimedia (as in this case) or Emacs mail (as in another recent case)? I know you (Amancio) are trying to increase the volume and the visibility of the multimedia list, but that's not the case in all lists, and it would be nice to have a uniform "right" way of doing things.

Date: Sat, 11 Apr 1998 23:50:36 -0500 From: Chris Csanady Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I have been interested in getting a video capture/tv tuner card, and from the list archives it seems the Bt848 cards are the most popular. >From the archives and web page though, it seems there are a few details that I am confused about. How exactly is the video rendered into windows, and how does the scaling work? Does the direct video allow for the graphics card to do the scaling? I usually use 1600x1200, and would rather the video consume more than a 4x3" area. :) Also, I have a 2x133 Pentium with a Millenium--if it does scale to very high resolutions, can I still expect a frame rate of > 24fps? Any comments on the relative quality of specific brands? As an aside, I am also looking for a new sound card. Is there any real audible difference in sound quality between the SB16 WaveEffects and AWE64? I am only interested in audio playback/recording, etc. I'd hate to shell out any more money for an ISA card than I have to. :\ Thanks, Chris Csanady To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Sat Apr 11 22:19:33 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id WAA18190 for freebsd-multimedia-outgoing; Sat, 11 Apr 1998 22:19:33 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (rah.star-gate.com [209.133.7.234]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA18184 for ; Sat, 11 Apr 1998 22:19:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hasty@rah.star-gate.com) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (localhost.star-gate.com [127.0.0.1]) by rah.star-gate.com (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id WAA13288; Sat, 11 Apr 1998 22:19:22 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from hasty@rah.star-gate.com) Message-Id: <199804120519.WAA13288@rah.star-gate.com> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: Chris Csanady cc: freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Bt848 questions...

PCI to PCI data transfer. fxtv aims the Bt848 to a given area in the display frame buffer to where to blast the video stream to -- there is no faster way of displaying video from a PCI device . 3. In PCI to PCI mode the Bt848 does the scaling I own a Matrox Millenium and you shouldn't have any problems with watching 640x480 32bits at 30fps irrespective of the resolution that you are running --- I guess the real limit is the amount of memory that you may have on your adapter however in your case thats not a problem.

The video is pushed directly to the graphics card over the PCI bus, via memory copying (i.e. the video is cpied directly into the display memory on your PCI video card).

Not sure about this. I can tell you that I am running at 1280x1024 and I have my window scaled to take up about 1/4 of the screen, and I still get very good performance (close to, if not 30fps). > Any comments on the relative quality of specific brands? I think they're all mostly alike. I bought an el-cheapo clone and it's working nicely for me (it was incompatible with my el-cheapo video card, but once I upgraded to an ATI Mach64, it works great now). > As an aside, I am also looking for a new sound card.

(Soemone please correct me if I'm wrong.) This means that playing MIDI files will sound much better on the Awe64, because it will use actual recorded samples of the appropriate musical instruments, instead of trying to (badly) synthesize them. The quality of all other operations (e.g. playing WAV files, audio from the TV capture card, etc.) will not be noticably different between teh two. - --- Donald Burr - Ask me for my PGP key | PGP: Your WWW HomePage: http://DonaldBurr.base.org/ ICQ #1347455 | right to Address: P.O.
