initial support for Hauppuage HD-PVR (4 Viewers)

[misterd]

I uploaded a new test version to other post again. I disabled the Quality control and made the code a bit more like the old one. Hopefully it works now.

I'm not sure what happened on the second tune as their are many reasons for this error code. I need a log for this to find the reason.

When the TvServer starts using a card it uses it until TvServer stops. So it uses the card from the beginning of the first tune or when you have preloading enabled for the card from the startup of TvServer on. In your case you should only restart TvServer from Manual control and you can use the card in RCTCap etc.

Sorry I didn't test this earlier, I had to step out for a few hours.

So I tried the last build. It seemed to have gotten further. The timeshift started succesfully.
I then tried to do a quick record to make sure all is working.
It turns out that the .ts file was 0 bytes, same thing that happens with RCTVCap when unit is frozen.

I also tried to stop the TVService to see if RCTVCap was able to capture and it wasn't.
The IR blaster was also on No H/W detected.

Here's the logs.

BTW, Thanks for putting in the effort, it would be great to have this thing fully working.

Garry,
I dont want to volunteer you, but maybe you could take a look at MisterD's code and debug it for him since you are probably one of the only ones that have the ability to debug?

Just a thought...

I'm all for it, just been too busy with work. I'll try to make time for it.

Hi,
I checked all clean up procedures and couldn't find any error so far, but I found a bug in the subchannel handling. I have attached a new test version.

Please test and report the results including logs.

Ok, so still not working but probably getting closer.
I got a "unable to create/start graph" after about 10 seconds.
If I try a second time I get the same error and when I stop TVService the unit responds correctly and I can use RCTVCap without power cycle.

Here are the logs (no error.log this time).

This new version doesn't work with my HD PVR. I just get the infamous "unable to start timeshifting." tv.log doesn't even update when i try to start tv and get that error message.

Course, I did just switch to comcast, but it's working fine TME. Back to square one.

but just in case:

Sorry for the late response, but I can't find the reason why it isn't working as I didn't changed something in this part of the code. TvServer is again unable to find the PMT

Also in current public SVN all analog cards and the HDPVR are broken!! So I will suspend the work on this until this problem is solved. It doesn't make sense to work on it, while this bug exists. :sorry:

Thanks again for all your help with this MisterD. Im sure you will crack the issue quickly!

With Garry's blessing, I am posting a new build of the TVLibrary.dll & DirectShowLib.dll. This build was done with the latest SVN along with the changes in Garry's HD-PVR.patch code.

This build is just to get us through until MisterD can get the issues resolved with the Analog TV. I know Garry has been busy and I have been wanting to play with the latest SVN, so here you go...

Thanks to sjeffrey for helping me test this out!
