| KNOWN PROBLEMS: |
| |
| country code |
| - The firmware of the chip needs the country code to determine |
| the stardards of video and audio when it runs for analog TV or radio. |
| The DVB-T does not need the country code. |
| |
| So you must set the country-code correctly. The V4L2 does not have |
| the interface,the driver has to provide a parameter `country_code'. |
| |
| You could set the coutry code in two ways, take USA as example |
| (The USA's country code is 1): |
| |
| [1] add the following line in /etc/modprobe.conf before you insert the |
| card into USB hub's port : |
| poseidon country_code=1 |
| |
| [2] You can also modify the parameter at runtime (before you run the |
| application such as VLC) |
| #echo 1 > /sys/module/poseidon/parameter/country_code |
