MyGica T230A

There's no need of patching, this tuner works fine on latest LE versions.

Before starting to mess around, have you tested the three module drivers available in LibreELEC?

Quote from secam7

This is not the MyGica T230 or C or C v2 .

I wrote about MyGica T230A witch idVendor=0572, idProduct=689a

In fact it is T230C2 as you can see for instance here: DVB-T USB Devices - LinuxTVWiki

Although the same device ID does not always mean it's the same hardware inside (Astrometa for example), I would say MyGica is not so bad regarding this matter..

Again, there's no need of urgent patching, this tuner works fine on latest LE versions.

In LE 9.80 nightly, which I am currently using, there are only kernel drivers. Although it's not yet 100% rock stable and it may depend on which USB port is used (2.0 or 3.0), overall it works quite fine.

In LE 9.2.6 official it was also working fine, as far as I can remember, at least with CrazyCat drivers.

Edit: Ahh, the idProduct=689a is really different... A fake or a quite new product???

I see that Geniatech does not offer any Linux drivers but you may perhaps try to contact the Support or visit a forum ( Get Support from the MyGica official website ). So far I did not find any mention regarding to T230A under Linux. Maybe it will be necessary to grab the firmware from Windows driver, it also depends on HW difference from previous T230x sticks so more changes in driver sources could be a must...

Any succes progress on this stick? I got one too and wanted to use with libreelec on a raspberry pi. But i got the same problem als you. it is really frustrating

I just got an response from the seller with this link: media_build_u18.04.2_ker4.18_lib_201030.tar with his small note, download and install it.

I didn't got it to work jet. but i wanted to let you guys know. And maybe some of you got lucky.

Edit: he is also send me an install guide. CompilingTunersDriverForLinux_v1.2

I have tried that, on my pi with ubuntu and an old laptop x86 ubuntu but I still run in to the same error for both of them...

I not found any support for USB\VID_0572&PID_689A

dvb-usb\cxusb contain support for some new geniatech products:

USB\VID_0572&PID_C68A - T230C V2 (Si2141+Si2168D60)

USB\VID_1F4D&PID_A681 - ATSC/CQAM USB Stick (mxl603+mn88436)

USB\VID_0572&PID_A682 - ATSC/CQAM Dual USB Stick (mxl692)

USB\VID_0572&PID_2886 - T232 DVB-T/T2/C Dual USB Stick (cxd2858)

USB\VID_1F4D&PID_692F - ATSC/CQAM USB Stick (mxl692)

si2183, cxd2858, mxl692, rs6000 frontend drivers without full sources,just precompile x86_64 libs.

Same board, same problem

Hello I have Rasperry Pi 4 and have this problem too.

Firstly I tried patch dvb-usb-ids.h, dvbsky.c like in first post but same result My dmesg shows:

si2168 13-0064: probe failed = -19

So secondly I tried build modules from files above and tried to patch t230a as t230.. its look like old drivers when t230series was in cxusb but now is in dvbsky drivers. Also here I have error... Here is dmesg:

[ 144.590948] usb 1-1.4: new high-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd

Now I am trying to resolve error of probing with stock raspberry kernel and I found error when I print chip vesrion in file si2168.c:

si2168 11-0064: unknown chip version Si2159-\x88\xd0P

So I think that T230A using same chip (2168-60) like T230C2 but there is problem with IO reading, But I am not sure about it.

Finally MyGica T230A working on linux (Raspberry Pi 4). Here is edited function in dvbsky.c which makes gpio write:

static int dvbsky_identify_state(struct dvb_usb_device *d, const char **name)
{
	dvbsky_gpio_ctrl(d, 0x87, 0);
	msleep(20);
	dvbsky_gpio_ctrl(d, 0x86, 1);
	dvbsky_gpio_ctrl(d, 0x80, 0);
	msleep(100);
	dvbsky_gpio_ctrl(d, 0x80, 1);
	msleep(50);

	return WARM;
}

Also I made like here: 34770c6.

Do I come to ask for your help? can you please tell where the error is?

I know you will certainly have a direction, I tried to include this patch in the construction of the chewitt and I get errors related to: drivers / media / usb / dvb-usb-v2 / dvbsky.c

include / media / dvb-usb-ids.h

I just edited the patch for amlogic-t230c.patch.

I directed to: projects / Amlogic / linux / patches.

As always friend you surprise! fast and efficient.

Speechless.

smp Just one more doubt?

Can this patch be used in the 4.9 kernel?

heliobara Back to Brazil! you need to test this construction.

Quote from erbas

Can this patch be used in the 4.19 kernel?

You mean 4.9 in CE? It will probably not apply to 4.9, a new patch will be needed.

I understand.

Perhaps cdu13a can help with that!
