IR for remote control not working for Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1150 (SAA713

headers Fernando Laudares Camargos | 15 Feb 2011 21:27

Hello,

I have a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1150 (model 67201) pci tv tuner working
(video and audio) under Ubuntu 10.10 and kernel 2.6.35-25. But the IR
sensor is not being detected and no input device is being created at
/proc/bus/input.

I have tried to follow the information from Jarod Wilson and Mauro
Carvalho Chehab in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665870
(regarding Fedora 14) but couldn't resolve it myself.

I'm not a kernel/driver specialist but from looking at the code I've
noticed that *perphaps* the support for the HVR-1150 has not been
finished yet. Here are two examples that leaded to this observation
(IMHO):

drivers/media/video/saa7134/saa7134-cards.c
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(...)
int saa7134_board_init1(struct saa7134_dev *dev)
{
(...)
       case SAA7134_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1150:           *NO
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THIS CASE*
        case SAA7134_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1120:
                /* GPIO 26 high for digital, low for analog */
                saa7134_set_gpio(dev, 26, 0);
                msleep(1);

                saa7134_set_gpio(dev, 22, 0);
                msleep(10);
                saa7134_set_gpio(dev, 22, 1);
                break;
        /* i2c remotes */
        case SAA7134_BOARD_PINNACLE_PCTV_110i:
        case SAA7134_BOARD_PINNACLE_PCTV_310i:
        case SAA7134_BOARD_UPMOST_PURPLE_TV:
        case SAA7134_BOARD_MSI_TVATANYWHERE_PLUS:
        case SAA7134_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1110:        *NO INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THIS CASE*
(...)
/* stuff which needs working i2c */
int saa7134_board_init2(struct saa7134_dev *dev)
{
(...)
        case SAA7134_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1150:        *NO INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THIS CASE*
        case SAA7134_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1120:
                hauppauge_eeprom(dev, dev->eedata+0x80);
                break;
        case SAA7134_BOARD_HAUPPAUGE_HVR1110:
                hauppauge_eeprom(dev, dev->eedata+0x80);
(...)

I'm wondering if someone has the IR part of the HVR-1150 working under
F14 or other or could give me a hand on trying to make it work (I have
attached output from dmesg with the following saa7134 options set:
disable_ir=0 i2c_debug=1 i2c_scan=1 ir_debug=1

Regards,

Fernando
