Video4linux support on Synology NAS

Added by Chris N almost 12 years ago

Has anyone with a Synology NAS been able to successfully configure video4linux support on it? I own a Synology DS213 NAS and a couple of Hauppage HVR-1950 tuners that I want to use with it to run TVHeadend. If anybody could help point me in the right direction of how to set this up, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Ok, I finally got my HVR-1950's to work! First, I downloaded the firmware files [http://www.isely.net/pvrusb2/setup.html#Firmware] to '/usr/syno/hotplug/firmware' on my DS213. Then I downloaded ‘gcc421_glibc25_88f6281-GPL.tgz’ and ‘synogpl-2636-6281.tbz’ [http://sourceforge.net/projects/dsgpl/files]. Then I followed these instructions [http://hallard.me/how-to-install-kernel-modules-on-synology-ds1010-dsm-4-1] and was able to do a ‘make menuconfig’. I went to “Device Drivers” and selected “Multimedia Support”. I then selected “Video For Linux” and chose "Customize analog and hybrid tuner modules to build". I made sure that everything was selected in that section and exited back to the previous section. Then I chose “Video Capture Adapters” and selected “Conexant cx23416/cx23415 MPEG encoder/decoder support”. I then selected “V4L USB devices” and chose “USB Video Class (UVC)”, “Hauppage WinTV-PVR USB2 support”, and "Conexant cx231xx USB video capture support". After exiting the menu and saving the configuration, I did a ‘make modules’ which successfully finished and built all of the KO files. I then copied all of the KO files under the ‘media’ folder (except for the i2c files which were located in the 'i2c' folder under drivers) and subfolders over to the ‘/opt/lib/modules/2.6.32′ folder on my DS213. I did a ‘mknod /dev/video0 c 81 0′ and a ‘mknod /dev/video1 c 81 1′ and then an ‘insmod’ for the following files in this order:

insmod i2c-core.ko

Sorry! I was never able to get dsm 5.0 working with the analog tuners and now that my cable company switched to digital only, I no longer have a use for them anyway...

RE: Video4linux support on Synology NAS - Added by kris clores about 10 years ago

its okay thanks for the info, but are you be able to record an analog channel on your synology using HVR-1950?

RE: Video4linux support on Synology NAS - Added by Chris N about 10 years ago

Yes, with an older dsm. I couldn't get dsm 5.0 to work. I am sure that I would have eventually figured it out, but there's no point for me now...
