TechnoTrend TT-TVStick CT2-4400 DVB-C / tvheadend / no signal

1st Official Post

    Hello,

    I'm trying to get this device running on my raspi 3, LibreeELEC 9.0.1. I've followed the install instructions, including copying the relevant firmware files to /lib/firmware as stated at https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/technotrend_tt-tvstick_ct2-4400.

    The device is found by lsub and dmesg shows ok results. Also, after installing tvheadend server 4.2 in Kodi the usb stick is shown in tvheadend tv adapters:

    /dev/dvb/adapter0 [Silicon Labs Si2168 #0]

    - Silicon Labs Si2168 #0 : ATSC-C #0

    - Silicon Labs Si2168 #0 : DVB-C #0

    - Silicon Labs Si2168 #0 : DVB-T #0

    But when checking the status, the input doesn't seems to be active, not getting a signal, as the bandwidth=0 and signal strength=unknown

    Therefore, no networks and muxes can be found/defined in tvheadend.

    The strange thing is, that DVB-C reception in Kodi-TV worked on my previous installation on the same raspi 3 but under OpenELEC/Kodi 16.1…..

    Thanks for your advices!

    Hello,

    I've tried all day yesterday, in some moment decided to try with VDR PVR Backend and Frontend - it worked at once. I just set symbol rate and country... Also satisfied with that, no need for tvheadend anymore..

    Thx people!
