| 39 | KNOWN PROBLEMS: |
| 40 | |
| 41 | country code |
| 42 | - The firmware of the chip needs the country code to determine |
| 43 | the stardards of video and audio when it runs for analog TV or radio. |
| 44 | The DVB-T does not need the country code. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | So you must set the country-code correctly. The V4L2 does not have |
| 47 | the interface,the driver has to provide a parameter `country_code'. |
| 48 | |
| 49 | You could set the coutry code in two ways, take USA as example |
| 50 | (The USA's country code is 1): |
| 51 | |
| 52 | [1] add the following line in /etc/modprobe.conf before you insert the |
| 53 | card into USB hub's port : |
| 54 | poseidon country_code=1 |
| 55 | |
| 56 | [2] You can also modify the parameter at runtime (before you run the |
| 57 | application such as VLC) |
| 58 | #echo 1 > /sys/module/poseidon/parameter/country_code |
