The driver for that stick just support 1 tuner, the second tuner support is currently merged at linux and will likely arrive with kernel ~4.17.

Meanwhile you can use my LE build LibreELEC 8.x images for additional dvb drivers and choose the Hauppauge addon (see video how it works), with LE9 the support is official baked in.

Hi,

Which specific download from that thread should we go for ? I am a bit overwhelmed!

I see your site has LE9 images, but I don't know whether they include the DVB drivers.

I also need drivers for the xbox TV tuner.

Best wishes,

Hi,

Sorry for the newbie question. I want to try setting up my TV server on an x64 PC, which is currently running Windows 10. I don't want to mess up the Windows system until I know everything is working fine.

Is it possible/easy to install LE 8.2.2 and run from a USB stick for testing purposes? The media drives are NTFS, and I'd rather not have to reformat them at any point. Will they continue to work okay in LE?

Thanks,

Mark

Hi,

I have tested one of these tuners on LE 8.2.2 on RPi3, and it works perfectly.

Does anyone know if the drivers are present in LE 8.2.1 for x64?

Best wishes,

kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git - Linux kernel source tree

Looks like only the first tuner will be supported, so far.

But strangely enough the quadHD tuner support is in 4.11

Hi,

Thanks for your efforts on this. I'd love to switch to TVHeadEnd, but lack the knowledge of how to apply these patches.

Do you know when libreelec will support both tuners for this device out of the box?

Thanks,

Mark

You need to use image made by CvH which has support for TBS tuners.

LibreELEC

That would probably be it. I'll give this a go.

Is it possible/easy to install drivers for cards that are not supported yet?

OpenELEC support is here: OpenELEC Mediacenter - Home

Sorry, LibreELEC !!!!!! I'm in the right place, honest!

Hi,

I tried on the Kodi forum, and was directed here.

I have a PC running Kodi 17 alpha 2 on LibreELEC, with a TBS 6280 dual DVB-T2 tuner (PCI-e) and a Hauppauge WinTV-dualHD USB tuner. They both work in Windows 10 with MediaPortal.

I installed the OpenELEC alpha and then installed tvheadend 4.2 from the LibreELEC repository. Everything installed fine. I was following this guide:

Setting up an easy Linux Kodi with Live TV (LibreELEC)

However, there are no tuners showing up. I can connect to tvheadend from a web browser on my PC, and everything looks as it should in the guide. Just no tuners.

I'm guessing there are no tuners yet for the Hauppauge card, but the TBS card is apparently supported.

So, how do I begin to troubleshoot this? My expertise on Linux is pretty low, but I can find my way around a bash shell. I just don't know how to tell if devices are detected/drivers installed, and what to do about it if they are not.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,

Mark

Edit: It is LibreELEC, not OpenELEC!
