LibreELEC 8.x images for additional dvb drivers

    CvH got a day off tommorow so can mess about with this abit more, i changed code abit to

    Bash
    #!/bin/sh
dvb-fe-tool --adapter=0 --frontend=0 --set-delsys=DVBC/ANNEX_A


    reason being cable one is showing as adaptor 0 and sat as adapter 1. not sure if that correct or not
    cable tuner shows as dev/dvb/adaptor0/frontend0
    terrestrial tuner shows as dev/dvb/adaptor0/frontend0
    sat tuner shows as dev/dvb/adaptor1/frontend0

    hopefully this might help, someone had it working on ubuntu 2014

    Code
    i have the same card working with ubuntu 14.10, kernelversion 3.16.0-23.
i followed the guide from dvbsky.net ([url=http://www.dvbsky.net/download/doc/Linux_Driver_installation_en.pdf]http://www.dvbsky.net/download/doc/L...llation_en.pdf[/url])
i genereated the channels.conf with w-scan (wiki.ubuntuusers.de/w_scan).


So, now you have to know, which DVB you want to use:
DVB-S is adapter0/frontend0
DVB-T is adapter1/frontend0
DVB-C is adapter1/frontend1


    in his, frontend is different for dvb-t and dvb-c so might work with

    Code
    autostart.sh


    . as at the moment on mine tvheadend is showing same adaptor and frontend for dvb-t and dvb-c.

    Great work! But my TBS5881 is still not working in the RPI, now I saw in dmesg that dvb-usb-tbsqbox-id5881.fw is missing at /lib/firmware/

    [ 6.222150] dvb-usb: found a 'TBS 5881 CI USB2.0' in cold state, will try to load a firmware
    [ 6.248817] usb 1-1.3: Direct firmware load for dvb-usb-tbsqbox-id5881.fw failed with error -2
    [ 6.248853] dvb-usb: did not find the firmware file. (dvb-usb-tbsqbox-id5881.fw) Please see linux/Documentation/dvb/ for more details on firmware-problems. (-2)

    How could I add it to see if the tbs5881 works? At 7.0.0 there was not this problem

    Big Thanks for working on it!

    thankfully mmajoor had an idea how to make it work - at least it is working for him - maybe for you too
    pls have a look if testimages is working (you have to re-set you driver at the settings addon)

    Would be good to have these modules as one or more addons (preferrably one for each set).

    Sry I have no idea from what are you talking about ;)

    Hey CvH now I tried latest version and it is also not working, it is all about drivers [emoji16] [emoji379]

    Do you have any idea of what could I try? Perhaps cross-compile official drivers or something like that

    I wrote crazycat about this but have no luck

    It seems to load OK, but it does not tune

    Tvheadend output at scanning:
