Whats about the known Problems (ET9X00) since new Kernel 3.8.7 with MKV-Files&DTS(high Bitrate) Audio ?
This Films don't run.... they stop at 00:00 nothing happens.
Again a gstreamer Problem !? Hopefully someone can fix that Problem....

Some update about USB tuners on the new kernel 3.8.7.
Some drivers are reported to work fine:
- dvb-usb-v2 drivers (such as af9035 for Avermedia A835 and A867 sticks, or rtl28xxu sticks using the new kernel driver), after the patch from Pieterg;
- as102 driver;
- Sundtek driver;
Other are confirmed to crash the kernel with various error messages:
- em28xx drivers (such as PCTV290e);
- dvb-usb drivers (such as the old a867 or the out-of-kernel rtl2832 driver form Realtek);
For example, this is a crashlog from PCTV290e using the em28xx driver framework:

The errors may vary, but they are always unaligned memory access or invalid kernel pages requests or invalid instructions.
This kind of errors suggests there must be a memory corruption in the stack space of the affected drivers, that is caused by some other drivers that is producing a kernel stack overflow, overwriting some memory area with random garbage.
This link explains what may be happening (it's very detailed and informative):
https://sites.google...-stack-overflow
So a possible explanation of the errors we see with USB tuners is that the closed-source drivers from Xtrend are producing some kernel stack overflow (that is, they are using more than 8KB of stack memory), corrupting the stack memory of drivers that are loaded after them (such as the USB tuner drivers).
A simple way to verify this hypothesis would be to disable the internal tuners (so that the corresponding drivers are not loaded at all) and see if the errors on USB tuners disappears. Any suggestion on how to do this?

only one way to find out
I don't have those devices myself.
i can confirm that it works! i use the 9035 kernel module and the system boot regulary
D.
my a867 does not work.
I installed the kernel af9035 and a867 but the dtt key is not recognizedet9000
The a867 is supported by both the dvb-usb-a867 driver (which doesn't work currently) and the af9035 driver. So you have to switch to the latter:
opkg remove kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867 opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-v2 kernel-module-af9033 kernel-module-dvb-usb-af9035 kernel-module-mxl5007t cd /lib/firmware wget http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/af9035/dvb-usb-af9035-02.fw_0184ba128bee3befe2fc49f144a8dbab_12.5.13.0_6.8.13.0 mv dvb-usb-af9035-02.fw_0184ba128bee3befe2fc49f144a8dbab_12.5.13.0_6.8.13.0 dvb-usb-af9035-02.fw
then reboot using the switch on the back of the decoder.

The second one is most interesting, it looks like a nullpointer.
Caused by a swfilter call, which happens too early, during the modprobe, before everything has been initialized?
I wouldn't expect data to be delivered untill the first feed is started, certainly not during the module init...

rtl2832u_frontend_attach calls rtl2832u_fe_attach, which fills the dvb_frontend_ops to use rtl2832_init and rtl2832_sleep.
But before this has happened, .init and .sleep seem to be called already.
Even if this is not the cause of the crash itself, it certainly shows something fishy is going on during the init...

Very interesting findings.
Please note that I compiled a 3.8 kernel for i386, applied the same driver patches and everything works fine, including dvb-usb and em28xx devices. So it's a MIPS related issue (given that the Xtrend drivers are not the cause).
I also tried to backport the em28xx driver to the version that was working in kernel 3.6, but the crashes are still there. The Realtek driver is exactly the same, and there has been no change in the dvb-usb framework between 3.6 and 3.8. The driver is surely doing something suspicious during init, but it works on x86 and used to work also on MIPS with the 3.6 kernel, so I don't think this is the cause.
All drivers are crashing during initialization, either trying to access a sub-dev connected through I2C (em28xx) or trying to start a swfilter (rtl2832).
I found a few recent bugfixes related to memory corruption/bad memory mapping on MIPS:
http://www.linux-mip...5/msg00048.html
http://patchwork.lin...org/patch/4994/
http://patchwork.lin...org/patch/4995/
I don't know if this may help...

Remove the dvb-usb-rtl2832 driver (from Realtek) and try again with just the new dvb-usb-rtl28xxu (from kernel).
It should work, as the FC0012 tuner is supported by current kernel.
