AverTV DVB-T 777 and the remote

Posted 08-24-2007 at 05:39 AM by Caysho

I started to look at what is needed to get the remote working.

This indicates patching is possible, but there's a note about support being in more recent kernels.

KnoppMyth R5F1

Posted 06-18-2007 at 07:21 AM by Caysho

I did a fresh install of KnoppMyth, and I'd forgotten how to do the sound setup for an external amplifier.
Putting it here for my records.

run alsamixer (probably as root)
Find "IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA" and set it to zero.

Then go into the General sound setup.

Enable AC3 to SPDIF passthrough - ticked
Enable DTS to SPDIF...

KnoppMyth R5E50 and AverTV DVB-T 777 and Digital Out

Posted 04-13-2007 at 05:48 AM by Caysho

I upgrade MythTV and had problems with my tuners being detected as "V-Stream Studio TV Terminator".
This blog entry details what's happening and I was able to fix it.

The changes are good for the most part - DVD playback is ok, though a bit squashed. decss is needed, linkage is here.
I lost SPDIF Optical out, but got it back with these details.

Sharing a 250 GB drive with samba.

Sharing a printer (Samsung ML-1740) with cups

Torrent box with transmission and dtach

NTP server with the listen option in the OpenNTPD configuration file.

I want to change the torrent software to rtorrent, but there's a few problems with it on the Slug. The solution to the first problem doesn't work for me, and I'm using ext3.
