8.1.6 Need help configuring Libreelec with Mecool K1Pro 2/16 S905D

  • well, i just bought Mecool K1Pro and i've got trouble configuring it in kszaq's Libreelec

    i've installed VDR Service addons and VNSI Client, configuring it with VDR Configuration but scanning i've got nothing.

    Same with TVHeadend, and i thing it's really confusing because the setting not like any other standard stb

    anyway this is the first time i'm using Libreelec in amlogic box with built in tuner, i've seen Libreelec 8.1.6 support Mecool K1 Pro and that's motivates me to purchase this box

    here is my dish installation

    dish ---> diseq switch 8x1 -->port 1: S91.5E Measat (C Band Linear)

    -->port 2: S98E Chinasat 11 (Universal 10600)

    -->port 3:S78.5E Thaicom 5/6 (KU Band 9750/10600)

    -->port 4:S91.5E Measat (Universal 9750/10600)

    i can easily setup those in enigma2 box and plenty of standard stbs but not with box

    can anyone suggest me which addons work best with this box, tvheadend or vdr? and if please kind enough to show me the settings :D

    thanks

  • thanks wrxtasy, been struggling this for hours and thanks for the link that you gave me, but still not moving forward

    after suspecting my diseq that cause trouble, i hook the box directly to dish

    here what VDR says

    Code
    [ 1487.194470@2] i2c i2c-2: Load avl6862 firmware patch for DVB-S/S2 size=44000
    [ 1487.642658@0] i2c i2c-2: avl6862 patch ver 2.0 build 20621

    after following the steps in pdf and i assume that it is the same with dvb-s, and here what TVH says

    i made sure that DTV in android running flawlessly

    what else can i try

    EDIT : this message contains cencored words w e i g h t 3x, so i change it to w8, but why???

  • ahh at last, i can see some channel being grabbed, but i need to change from dvb-s2 to dvb-s in mux although it is dvb-s2 signal...

    edit : this seems unnecessary

    is it only me not knowing this "phenomen0n" on this tuner or tvh ?

    now i understand the addon message the author not responsible for "wasted hours" :)

    EDIT : i can really laugh since all tired day because of error message when submitting this post, so many censored word including phenomen0n, w eight, what;s happened to this so called "libre" forum

  • OK, after hours of playing with tvh, here is my finding so far

    setting for combination of LNBs in diseq 8x1

    - set LNB --> for Non Universal, rotor blabla..

    - creating network according to satelite target

    - set each LNB with the sat name and attach the network that we have created previously

    - set each LNB with switch generic, for 8x1 we need to leave committed switch to none, and uncommitted switch according to the port -1 ( if i plug Thaicom KU Band to port 3 then we choose 2)

    ...

    hope it helps someone setting tvh-libreelec for the first time like me :)

    sorry for the english :)

    EDIT : oops to early to celebrate, now i still can not find most of channels which is easily discover by cheap stb, i dont remember how i could scan channel on the first time, i though by changing values in adapter file, but after second retry on a clean system, it keeps saying scan no data, poll time out, retune no data blabla, here i attach the log, hope crazycat or afl1 might have a look why this tuner keeps failing find channels on c-band satelite, is it the driver or wrong tvhsetup on my side :(

    Pls, always provide complete log file.

    Mux default definition for transponders in tvh can be outdated. Verify muxes with lyngsat.com definitions. In your log I see a lot of wrong transponder definitions (3814V, 3520H, 3644H, 3714H, ...).

    Also verify Configuration->Channel/EPG->EPG Grabber Modules: 'Over-the air: EIT: DVB Graber' have to be allowed.
