/dar de ombros

the dmesg log did not help?

Need another document?

I realized that different from the tbs5520se The same was needed:

Add CONFIG_DVB_USB_TBS5520SE=m to projects/Amlogic/linux/linux.aarch64.conf

It will look like this:

CONFIG_DVB_USB_TECHNISAT_USB2=m

CONFIG_DVB_USB_TBS5520SE=m

CONFIG_DVB_USB_V2=m

Looks like the file got corrupted somehow.

Try this one.

Try this one.

The other times only one line entered:

patching file include/media/dvb-usb-ids.h

Now it was different, there were two

Oops! Now you recognized it, at first! The Search is still testing, some frequencies I had to redo a few times to find the channels.

smp It's working, thanks to your support!

The Search, has some frequencies that are giving error, but there may be the cable.

Generally, new firmware is needed

I tried to dump firmware which loads in Windows and its same file as dvb-tuner-si2141-a10-01.fw but in case Si2168 there loads only small part of file but when I tried to load this file it's shows me error when downloading firmware EINVAL 22 /* Invalid argument */ or EREMOTEIO 121 /* Remote I/O error */ so is any way how to get proper firmware? I tried to add another hex commands to set chip flags like in Windows but result are same and nothing changed.

**crazycat** · January 22, 2021 at 1:39 PM

what is proper firmware ?:) windows driver load dummy firmware patch (initial chip firmware 6.0.1).

pego149 · January 22, 2021 at 4:33 PM

Sorry I am little confused from this type of programing. I am doing with drivers first time. Can you describe which role have firmware or can you send me link? I only know that when I connect and want to tune some frequency a firmwares are sended to device. So I think that dvb-demod-si2168-d60-01.fw is not good for this device or am I wrong? I have very bad reception compared to RTL-SDR (RTL2832u chip).

**crazycat** · January 22, 2021 at 5:38 PM

Why wrong ? 6.0b13 latest firmware patch for Si2168-D60 extracted from some STB drivers.

pego149 · January 26, 2021 at 4:27 PM

Okay so sorry for my mistake of meaning about firmware. I found mistake somewhere in my DVB-T antenna (yagi antenna on roof) connection. I don't know why I have low signal when I connected coax cable directly from antenna power amplifier to tuner. But when I connect between them one "T" splitter and to other end of splitter connect included antenna from tuner package then signal is full. But at the end, tuner is working very well now.

pego149 Are you linux, LIbreelec and if so what patch are you using?

pego149 · January 26, 2021 at 9:51 PM

Now I am on Raspberry Pi OS on Raspberry Pi 4 and I am using my fork of media_build here: GitHub - pego149/linux_media: TBS linux open source drivers but its only change what I post before with GPIO write.

Hello,

I have the same problem. Is there a chance to see this patch integrated into the LE official driver?

I don't know how to compile my version myself.

Thank you.

**crazycat** · February 5, 2021 at 7:32 PM

Added also to my repo, some changed because T220,220A support also moved to dvb-usb-dvbsky

media: dvb-usb-v2/dvbsky: Mygica T230A support. · crazycat69/linux_media@e1ef47d · GitHub

Akura · February 5, 2021 at 8:33 PM

Thank you so much ! I assume this will be available in the next version of LE?
