Dear all,
I am using a Libre Computer Le Potato SBC (see here:
https://libre.computer/products/boards/aml-s905x-cc/) with LibreELEC 8
Leia from adamg (community build). Included there is a driver for em28xx
based DVB cards, which in the log refers to the email address I am
sending this to - so here's my problem: I've a WinTV Hauppauge dualHD
DVB-T/T2/C USB card, and I set it up under Raspberry Pi/xbian/tvheadend
successfully, could scan DVB-C and DVB-T2 and watch TV - i.e. card works
in principle (only one tuner, but that's OK at the moment). Now I
attached the same card to the Libre Computer Le Potato, and have only
partial success. From dmesg I see that even both tuners are recognized,
but they do not show up as devices in /dev - there isn't even a /dev/dvb
folder! dmesg looks very similar to Raspberry/xbian, with three notable
exceptions: First, the i2c-bus is not added on Le Potato. Second,
potentially as a result of the first, the firmware file
dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
<https://github.com/OpenELEC/dvb-firmware/raw/master/firmware/dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw>,
although present, is not loaded. Third: There's a warning that this is a
downport of the driver, which is originally created for kernel v4, not
v3. Hauppauge itself claims support only for v4. Of course as a result
of all this tvheadend does not see any tuner. Still, it looks like I'm
almost there - anyone can help me do the final step?
Here's the dmesg output (Le Potato):
