Sorry to reply to my own mail, but I've done some furter investigations
I got sound on some channels but not all, the one that I don't get sound from are using Nicam stereo. Do I need to do any special configuration to get Nicam to work?
At least in Germany I read thatas an example video is sent on 112.25 Mhz, mono sound on 117.750 and stereo on 117.992. I don't know if it's the same inSweden, but could that have something to do with the problem with no-sound?

Hi!
Now I got setchannel to work, the problem I had was that I tried to change to a channel that didn't broadcast. Now I can record i.e. (cat /dev/cxm0 > file.mpeg), but I still have two problems;
1. When recording no sound is recorded. I don't have a soundcard in my machine, is that required? I recorded the mpeg-file and played it on another machine. Do I need to do any ioctl calls to configure the sound?
2. Cablechannels I was looking at http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1012.html#RTFToC4 (mentioned in cxm_tuner.c). The driver implements "B/G Off air channels" for my tuner (LG). However I'm connected to a cablenetwork and need to S-channels in "B/G Cable Channels". I tried to use channel from the "B/G Off air mapping" that matched the Mhz for the S-shannel, but it didn't work. What I'm I doing wrong? Does the bablemapping needs to be implemented in the driver somehowe?
And one question; If I use setchannel to change to a channel that aren't bradcasting. Is the channel set to this new channel or is the old one used?
BTW. Thanks John for your great work!!!
/Andreas

No broadcast there. Only one I got is my satellite on 647 MHz (ch 43),
but I use the composite input in Linux.
# setchannel -c ioctl( tfd, METEORSINPUT ) failed.: Invalid argument
# dmesg cxm0: video decoder failed to lock
The error message means the video decoder failed to identify a valid video signal within the allowed time.
1) Are you sure it's the composite input? So the video output from the satellite box is a RCA phono connector connected to a little adapter which plugs into the composite / svideo connector on the Hauppauge card? You might try using "setchannel -s" just to see what happens.
2) You might try changing the loop in cxm_saa7115_wait_for_lock from 10 to 20.
When using the -t option: ioctl( tfd, METEORSINPUT ) failed.: Invalid argument ioctl( tfd, TVTUNER_SETCHNL ) failed.: Invalid argument
# dmesg cxm0: video decoder failed to lock cxm0: audio decoder failed to lock
As a dumb question ... I take it the coax connector on the Hauppauge is connected to the output of the cable box?
Using -t to switch to the tuner will "fail" if the tuner isn't set to a valid channel. The input actually does switch ... the METEORSINPUT ioctl merely seems to fail because no valid video signal was detected.
The TVTUNER_SETCHNL should not fail if a valid video signal is present at the chosen channel. The BG channel mapping used by the cxm driver maps channel 43 to 647.25 MHz. You mentioned 647 MHz ... did you mean 647.25 MHz?
