Adaptec AVC-3610 and FM

[dark_half]

I have the AVC-3610 working with both tuners but is there a way to get GBPVR to support the FM on it?

Ok I got GBPVR to scan and get lock in the FM pluggin by changing the entries in direct.ini. Here is what I have currently.

Code:

[Adaptec AVC-3610 with FM Tuner] INIT_MODE=DEFAULT INIT_MSP=0 SUPPORTS_FM_RADIO=1 FILTER_CROSSBAR=Adaptec USB Crossbar FILTER_CAPTURE=Adaptec USB Capture Device FILTER_TV_TUNER=Adaptec USB TvTuner FILTER_TV_AUDIO=Adaptec USB TvAudio PIN_CROSSBAR_VIDEO_TUNER_IN=Video Tuner In PIN_TVTUNER_ANALOG_VIDEO_OUT=Analog Video PIN_TVTUNER_ANALOG_AUDIO_OUT=Analog Audio PIN_TVAUDIO_TV_AUDIO_IN=TVAudio In PIN_TVAUDIO_TV_AUDIO_OUT=TVAudio Out PIN_CROSSBAR_AUDIO_TUNER_IN=Audio Tuner In PIN_CROSSBAR_VIDEO_DECODER_OUT=Video Decoder Out PIN_CAPTURE_ANALOG_VIDEO_IN=Analog Video In PIN_CROSSBAR_AUDIO_DECODER_OUT=Audio Decoder Out PIN_CAPTURE_ANALOG_AUDIO_IN=Analog Audio In PIN_CAPTURE_CAPTURE_OUT=Capture PIN_WRITER_INPUT_IN=Input [Adaptec AVC-3610] INIT_MODE=DEFAULT INIT_MSP=0 SUPPORTS_FM_RADIO=0 FILTER_CROSSBAR=Adaptec USB Crossbar FILTER_CAPTURE=Adaptec USB Capture Device FILTER_TV_TUNER=Adaptec USB TvTuner FILTER_TV_AUDIO=Adaptec USB TvAudio PIN_CROSSBAR_VIDEO_TUNER_IN=Video Tuner In PIN_TVTUNER_ANALOG_VIDEO_OUT=Analog Video PIN_TVTUNER_ANALOG_AUDIO_OUT=Analog Audio PIN_TVAUDIO_TV_AUDIO_IN=TVAudio In PIN_TVAUDIO_TV_AUDIO_OUT=TVAudio Out PIN_CROSSBAR_AUDIO_TUNER_IN=Audio Tuner In PIN_CROSSBAR_VIDEO_DECODER_OUT=Video Decoder Out PIN_CAPTURE_ANALOG_VIDEO_IN=Analog Video In PIN_CROSSBAR_AUDIO_DECODER_OUT=Audio Decoder Out PIN_CAPTURE_ANALOG_AUDIO_IN=Analog Audio In PIN_CAPTURE_CAPTURE_OUT=Capture PIN_WRITER_INPUT_IN=Input

I set tuner 1 to FM and the second without because this was the only way I could get a lock when scanning. However I still get no audio. Attached are my logs if anyone has a suggestion.

Those logs dont contain an attempt to use the radio. Can you try again, then repost the logs?

[dark_half]

Sorry about that I thought I got the right logs. Try these....

I could be wrong, but I think your direct.ini definitions above are missing a setting called PIN_CAPTURE_PREVIEW_AUDIO_OUT, which is the name of the preview audio out pin on the capture filter for this device.

I tried adding the setting

Code:

PIN_CAPTURE_PREVIEW_AUDIO_OUT=Preview Audio

but that did not work. I opened the graph in Graphedit although this is a little above me.

I tried changing the name from Preview Audio to Audio Virtual Out but that didn't seem to make a difference.

Thanks for the help

It doesnt look like this device has a preview audio out, so I dont think you're going to get the FM radio working.

The last think you could try is setting <ForceFMBufferingMode>true</ForceFMBufferingMode> in config.xml, and making sure you have the LAME encoder installed: http://www.elecard.com/ftp/pub/directsho..._dshow.zip

That does not seem to have helped. Thank you for your time.

Well I have found another issue with recordings. Both tuners work but The audio and video bitrate are not set correctly. I choose low quality but the bitrate for the video is 9000 and I have the audio set for 192 but it records at 384. Anyone have an idea if there is anything I can do to correct this.

In case anyone is using this I was able to get the FM working. Although I do not have the HP branded version of this device I downloaded the HP driver for it and installed it. It works fine and also gives you an addtional pin on the Adaptec USB Capture Device called Audio Preview. I made these changes to the direct.ini and now FM radio works. I set tuner #1 with fm and tuner #2 without.
