Installation issues / How install the DVD Changer Sony VGP-XL1B ?

« on: February 06, 2010, 02:27:28 pm »

I have buy a Sony VAIO Living Center include the SONY DVD Changer.
The DVD-Changer is refurbished from Sony, it looks like new and work perfectly unter MCE2005.

The problem under linuxmce (8.10b2) is, the Powerfile.sh script run´s automatic, but the script don´t find the changer!


lsscsi -g

[0:0:0:0]    disk          ATA                ST3808110AS              3.AA  -        /dev/sg0
[1:0:0:0]    cd/dvd     HL-DT-ST         DVD-ROM GDRH10N       0F03  -        /dev/sg1
[4:0:0:0]    disk         SAMSUNG         HD154UI                              -        /dev/sg2
[23:0:1:0]   cd/dvd    MATSHITA        DVD-RAM SW-9584        B100  -        /dev/sg3
[24:0:2:0]   mediumx      Sony           VAIOChanger1               0100  -        /dev/sg4


When i start the Powerfile.sh manual comes this resultat:

sudo /usr/pluto/pnp/Powerfile.sh

Powerfile Detection script queue <> <> <> <> <> <> <>
type disk
cd/dvd
disk
cd/dvd
mediumx
none of the above


a look in the script:

code:

#!/bin/bash

. /usr/pluto/bin/SQL_Ops.sh
. /usr/pluto/bin/Config_Ops.sh

echo "Powerfile Detection script queue <$1> <$2> <$3> <$4> <$5> <$6> <$7>"
DevSg="$5"; DevSgEsc="${DevSg//\//\/}"

type=$(lsscsi -g|awk "/$DevSgEsc"'$/ {print $2}')
manufacturer=$(lsscsi -g|awk "/$DevSgEsc"'$/ {print $3}')
model=$(lsscsi -g|awk "/$DevSgEsc"'$/ {print $4}')

echo "type $type"
if [[ "$type" == 'mediumx' && "$manufacturer" == 'PowrFile' && "$model" == 'C200' ]]; then
        echo "it's a c200"
        /usr/pluto/bin/MessageSend dcerouter -r 0 $1 1 806 224 $2 13 "$4" 44 1737
elif [[ "$type" == 'mediumx' && "$manufacturer" == 'Sony' && "$model" == 'VAIOChanger1' ]]; then
        echo "it's a sony"
        /usr/pluto/bin/MessageSend dcerouter -r 0 $1 1 806 224 $2 13 "$4" 44 1889
else
        echo "none of the above"
        /usr/pluto/bin/MessageSend dcerouter -r 0 $1 1 806 224 $2 13 "$4" 44 0
fi

Code:

Have anybody a solution for me, what i can do?!
I don´t found in the WIKI or FORUM a install instruction about the DVD Cahnger.

Give´s a manual install procedure?

best regards,
Marco

Hello Friends,

i have try the TeVii S420 DVB-S PCI, it works fine and the channel switching it´s fast!
driver package are find: http://tevii.com/linux_tevii_ds3000.rar

You must copy the FW from Tevii to /lib/firmware and then you install the v4l from the packet (ReadMe included)
make && make install and the card work with the vdr.

Hello Klara,

in the moment i have only the core/hybrid when he works fine, then i make the md´s with diskless boot.
The MD are equal by the diskless boot, you start a new untouched PC with network PXE-boot (show in your mainboard bios),
and the core dedect the new PC (it´s need time) and build an new MD and Orbiter for this device.
When the new MD it´s ready to work, than you loged in with from another PC with SSH to the new MD.

ssh with a putty, the then go with sudo -s (root) and install your vdr equal by the core/hybrid, this is my plan, maybe it´s going easy with another method?!

Marco

PS. I have see a script "update_ diskless_MD.sh" but i hav no time to check this script what he do!!!

Hi,

i have a Tevvi S660 DVB-S2 USB, it works with the "linux pack" from http://tevii.com/linux_tevii_ds3000.rar
You must copy the FW from Tevvi to /lib/firmware and then you install the v4l from the packet (ReadMe included)
make && make install and the box work with the vdr.  (thanks to nite_man !)
