** Description changed: - The em28xx module is used with a lot of TV and video hardware, and is - needed also for the video grabber Terratec Grabster AV350MX. However, - with this external, USB connected device the wrong settings are applied, - allowing only a (good quality) video picture, but no sound at all. - Applying the workaround results in both good picture and good sound. + When using Ubuntu 12.04, 64bit, kernel 3.2.0-24 with my Terratec + Grabster AV350MX plugged into USB, the wrong settings are applied, + allowing only a video picture with no sound via mplayer, vlc, and + arecord. I verified that the error still exists in kernel 3.4.0-rc6. - The Terratec Grabster AV350MX (lsusb: 0ccd:0084) has a cheaper sister - grabber Terratec Grabby (0ccd:0096) with the same hardware chip Empia - EM2860. In the kernel driver file em28xx.h the former is card#68, while - the latter is card#67. - - Using Ubuntu 12.04, 64bit, kernel 3.2.0-24 correctly recognizes the - AV350MX, and loads some modules, but then has no sound using mplayer - (commands below) , vlc, arecord. Apply these workaround steps to reload - em28xx with the settings for the sister card. Thereafter dmesg - incorrectly identifies the card as Terratec Grabby, but sound now works - in addition to picture: - - - (insert Grabster and leave inserted) - - sudo rmmod em28xx - - sudo modprobe em28xx card=67 + WORKAROUND: Insert Grabster and leave inserted. Execute at a terminal: + sudo rmmod em28xx + sudo modprobe em28xx card=67 Now enjoy video with sound with (PAL video, video on /dev/video0, sound on alsa hw:1,0): mplayer tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=720:height=576:outfmt=uyvy:device=/dev/video0:input=0:fps=25:alsa:amode=1:forcechan=2:audiorate=48000:adevice=plughw.1,0:forceaudio:immediatemode=0 -ao sdl,alsa or record to file with (1 minute of uncompressed video/sound): mencoder tv:// -tv driver=v4l2:width=720:height=576:device=/dev/video0:input=0:fps=25:alsa:amode=1:forcechan=2:audiorate=48000:adevice=plughw.1,0:forceaudio:immediatemode=0 -oac copy -ovc copy -o myvideofile -endpos 00:01:00 - I verified that the error still exists in kernel 3.4.0-rc6. + An insight to the work around is the Terratec Grabster AV350MX (lsusb: + 0ccd:0084) is similar to the Terratec Grabby (0ccd:0096) with the same + hardware chip Empia EM2860.
