Invalid output params and cannot determine video mode

[jacobgmartin]

I recently updated everything on my gentoo system (including boost, gcc, kernel 5.10.27, etc).

After loading hdpvr and recompiling the HauppaugeUSB project, I got the following errors:

2021-05-01T16:05:18.222007 INFO <main> HauppaugeDev.cpp:385 (init_component) Invalid Output Params (1440571368x22080), retrying.
2021-05-01T16:05:18.272369 CRIT <main> HauppaugeDev.cpp:392 (init_component) Cannot determine video mode.

I have attached the full log with debug level output enabled.

Any ideas/hints?

Thanks in advance! erroout.txt

Update: It isn't the kernel version. I just tried version 5.4.28-gentoo-x86_64 and it didn't work either with the same error messages:

That typically means you don't have the input cable(s) hooked up correctly. Verify that the green component cable is hooked up to the green input cable, for example. If the cables are fine, then it is not detecting a valid signal from your STB.

Thanks, I believe the issue was a user error on my end. It was because I was selecting the wrong input. I'm using HDMI. So,

/opt/Hauppauge/bin/hauppauge2 -s E585-00-00D6A4DF -i 3 -a 3 -L 510 -o ./testnew8.ts

works fine.

Best regards,
