TBS5680 DVB-C tuner RPI4 can't recegnize

Hi all,

I have TBS 5680 DVB-C usb tuner with CI slot

My Raspberry PI 4 with fresh LibreELEC OS can't regognize tuner inside Tvheadend control panel. I've changed module drivers to TBS Crazycat's but unfortunately with no luck.

With my very limited linux skills I can see that device is recognized when I type lsusb via SSH

Code

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 734c:5680 TBS Technologies China

During my research I've found that someone used that tuner in the past but the "how to fix" instructions attached to it just tells me nothing. Like I said my linux skills are very poor.

my research

Can someone just bring me back to earth and tell me that this won't work or maybe there is some solution ?

Bests,

lsusb blindly shows whatever is attached to the USB bus, it has nothing to do with the kernel loading drivers or usability of the hardware

Thanks for replies, So I assume there is no way to use it with LE ?
