hi guys,

you should give the new alpha release LibreELEC (Leia) v8.90.008 ALPHA a try. my DVBSky S960 DVB S/S2 USB with vdr-backend is now working with astra 19.2° channels on my Raspberry Pi v3.

many thanks to the LibreELEC-team!

Kernel 4.19.2 did not solve the problem described in the original post, I can still easily reproduce it. In 4.19.2/4.20-rc2 they reverted commit 7d95fb74 that made DVBsky devices non-functional since kernel 4.18 but that issue is completely unrelated.

thanks for the information! so we have to wait ....

This is very good news. I'm on 16.04 LTS kernel, and all my DVBSky devices work fine (but I use mostly pcie).

yes, also 18.04 LTS made no problems, since 18.10 with kernel 4.18 we had this problems. but with 4.19.2 (4.19.0 and 4.19.1 are not working) all seems to be ok ...

on my pc-installation (ubuntu mate 18.10) i installed kernel 4.19.2 and it solved the problems. after hours of watching TV i am almost blind, but now i can say that kernel works with the installed firmware of DVBSky S960 DVB S/S2 USB.

so we have to wait until the developers will include this kernel to LibreELEC ...

i installed this new version on my RI3b, but no luck with the DVBSky S960 USB. i can see there are not all the fw-parts i have copied to /lib/firmware on my ubuntu-mate 18.10-kernel 4.19.2 in your directory. with that kernel-version and the installed firmware on PC my kodi runs with vdr-backend without getting troubles, but i didn't try a long-time-test. just for information ...

Would be nice if RPi2/3 with LE8/9 + DVBSky USB would work reliable, as that would mean a cheap, simple, low-power combination for Kodi and Live TV.

i am on LibreELEC 8.2.5-official, kernel 4.9.8 and my DVBSky S960CI USB runs great! to watch tv i am using vdr-addon. very stable combination ...

hope i could help ...

i am on LibreELEC 8.2.5-official, kernel 4.9.8 and my DVBSky S960CI USB runs great!

hope i could help ...

all right, i still have installed on my second vim the mentioned build and will wait what's goin on ... many thanks

many thanks for the reply. i am using on my vim1 balbes150 LibreELEC-S905_SD_USB.aarch64-17.6_20180122.img and it works. i just want to inform the LibreELEC-team about that issue. many thanks to the team for their great work!

so no need to hurry ...

could you please add this firmware to the next build, because no chance to get my receiver running ....

so you have to use on linux "Disks" (you find it under Accessories-Disks) or on windows Win32DiskImager ...

shippy

i never used it for saving windows, but it is a very good tool for linux. it is imaging the data, partitions or the wohle disk of an installed system, or LE on SD-card and if you want to move it on an other computer, it will do it. i tried it now with LE on a pc-installation, just LE is installed and it works.

i deleted the whole harddisk, formated the disk as it was and reinstalled LE with qt5-fsarchiver.

to your question about eMMC on a s905 box. i am sure this will not work because of the different boot-loaders. you can try to copy userdata and addons to have the same installation like on your computer ....

the guru for those questions is balbes150. he also did a lot for the khadas vim. i am using one of his LE-images.

i use the qt5-fsarchiver installed on an usb-stick with a complete ubuntu-mate-installation.

YES SIR! this was the problem. i use now only 10.0.0.0/24 and it works. many thanks guys for the hints!

thank you, i tried it, but it doesn't work, also 10.0.0.0/24 i use in xbian and osmc doesn't help ....

the strange thing is, i have access to the web-interface on port 8080 and access to vdr-live on port 8008 ....

great news for me, i can now use my dvbsky s960 usb-receiver 'cause of the added firmware. so i tried it, installed LibreELEC-RPi2.arm-8.2.5.img on my RPi3B but no success with the vdr-vnsi-client. when i am on my tv the client shows 127.0.0.1 and i can watch tv. if i want to use another client on a different pc, normaly i had to use the vdr-backend ip (something like 10.0.0. .... ). it always works on xbian and osmc. i searched now for 3 days, but i give up ....

so my question: what do i have to change?

many thanks in advance ...
