Sony CXD2837 in LibreELEC

1st Official Post

    Greetings!

    I decided to move a few TVBoxes i own from Android to LibreElec because performance is greatly increased.

    I am impressed with LibreELEC overall but i am trying to get my CXD2837 dvb-t2 tuner working.

    I got the source code and built with wetekdvb support (they said it is the same chipset). but it throws:

    CCOM:/flash # modinfo wetekdvb.ko

    modinfo: ERROR: Module wetekdvb.ko not found.

    CCOM:/flash # modinfo /usr/lib/mod

    modprobe.d/ modules-load.d/ modules/

    CCOM:/flash # modinfo /usr/lib/mod

    modprobe.d/ modules-load.d/ modules/

    CCOM:/flash # modinfo /usr/lib/modules/3.10.99/wetekdvb/wetekdvb.ko

    filename: /usr/lib/modules/3.10.99/wetekdvb/wetekdvb.ko

    depends:

    vermagic: 3.10.99 SMP mod_unload ARMv7

    parm: adapter_nr:DVB adapter numbers (array of short)

    CCOM:/flash # uname -r

    CCOM:/flash # modprobe wetekdvb

    modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wetekdvb': Exec format error

    ¿Someone has gotten this driver working?

    The "wetekdvb" module contains code that detects specific properties unique to WeTek hardware, and if not detected, the driver will not run.

    DVB drivers on Amlogic are a mucking fess. YMMV.

    Oh! Well, i was close and i feel proud :P.

    Took the make menuconfig path and now i think i have to fix this one:
