New page

= Best T2 usb device 2018 =

Have a roof areal and can visually see the transmitter, TV never has a signal problem

* Hauppauge WinTV-dual HD - Fantastic, stable and works well with my signal so far records all channels, dual support is not currently in main line kernel or v4l though patches can be found.
* PCTV nanoStick T2 - unstable with my signal
* DVB-T210 - unstable with my signal

== adding a udev rule - handy when using rtl-433 ==

/etc/udev/rules.d/10-dvb.rules

SUBSYSTEM=="dvb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="2040", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0265", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c ' K=%k; K=$${K#dvb}; N=$${K#*.}; if [ ! -e /dev/dvb/adapter_hp0/$N ] ; then printf dvb/adapter_hp0/%%s $${K#*.}; else printf dvb/adapter_hp1/%%s $${K#*.}; fi ; exit 0'", SYMLINK+="%c"

=Remotely running and remotely display x apps=
xauth add `xauth -f /var/run/gdm3/auth-for-mythtv-*/database list`

=Keyboard doesn't work with xorg.conf=

AllowEmptyInput magic

Section "ServerFlags"

Option "standby time" "0"
Option "suspend time" "0"
Option "off time" "0"
# allow keyboard to be auto detected without specifying one
Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false"
EndSection

= ir keymap now handled by kernel, lirc not required =
create and edit keymap

find your input device and extract the current map:

ir-keytable --read --device=/dev/input/event12 > hauppauge

save it in the normal place:

/etc/rc_keymaps/hauppauge

test it by loading the new file
ir-keytable -w /etc/rc_keymaps/hauppauge

add entry to /etc/rc_maps.cfg
* rc-hauppauge hauppauge
