Re: New OSS driver and MythTV

Hello Steve, DVB-C delivery system selection with dvb-fe-tool in the MythTV Backend startup script worked. Seems all stable so far. I tried also tvheadend that is mentioned in the PDF, but this errors with: linuxdvb: TurboSight TBS 6205 DVB-T/T2/C : DVB-C #0 - failed to tune [e=Invalid argument] It ...

Re: TBS in mainline?

For me it will sufficient if I could create a script that would (download and) build the drivers after a kernel upgrade automatically. That should be possible now. The hardware I used before TBS also would only work with the newest v4l sources, not even the "stable" v4l branch, let alone t...

Re: New OSS driver and MythTV

Hello Steve, thanks for your quick answer. Especially tvheadend seems to be an interesting tool. Meanwhile I found out that selecting the delivery system is not supported by MythTV, but you can switch it with the command dvb-fe-tool -a 0 -d DVBC/ANNEX_A in the start script. This must be done for all...

Re: New OSS driver and MythTV

The issue is simply that the old driver was at compile time locked at DVB-C, and the new driver is not.

I don't know how to tell the new driver to do DVB-C instead of DVB-T.

A hint would be appreciated.

Re: TBS in mainline?

Hi! Since TBS now has a GPL'd driver for some of the cards (and e.g., for 6902 it is the official one too): https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media , is TBS working on getting the drivers in mainline Linux? I think this would be interesting for both TBS and their users, since TBS doesn't have to to a...

New OSS driver and MythTV

I want to upgrade to a newer kernel, because I will need to move to 16.04 Ubuntu anyway somwhen. With this, the old, closed source drivers do not compile anymore (had some from November 15), but the new ones do. When running MythTV, however, neither tuning nor channel scanning do work. I get these e...
