    I'm using libreelec 8.2.5 and TVheadend Version: 8.2.112.
    I used the wizard to scan assign all services.
    But some channels don't open o have the error attached.

    Somebody can help me to see what are causing it?

    I download crazycat versions:
    LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.2.5-5.42.2-4.14.44-CC.img
    LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.2.5-5.42.2-4.14.47-CC.img

    And Tvheadend are not start service.

    Now i'm using:
    LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.2.5-3.42.2-4.14.44.img with my DVBSky S952v3

    Report:
    TVheadend Version: 8.2.111 Transcoding are working OK
    TVheadend Version 8.2.113 Transcoding NOT working
    113 ( At changelog they announce full transcoding support)
    Update to 4.2.6.7
    -Full transcoding support


    Something as broken transcoding function.

    Thanks a lot for all contributors

    I had it working, and suddenly after a restart it no longer works. The Stick is detected as DVB-T only.
    Slow libreelec restart.

    To get DVB-C working with TVHEADEND at Libreelec, you need to do these commands it via SSH

    On Libreelec :

    STEP 1

    set static adapter number to astrometa (i also choose adapter5)

    create /etc/modprobe.d/astrometa.conf by

    $ nano /etc/modprobe.d/astrometa.conf

    add to astrometa.conf

    #Configuration file for Astrometa DVB-T2 USB receiver
    #Note firmware dvb-demod-mn88473-01.fw in /lib/firmware
    #force consistent adapter numbering
    options dvb-usb-rtl28xxu adapter_nr=5

    and i saved the file.

    STEP 2

    created the file /storage/swop_astrometa_frontend.sh ( /storage is writable on flash card, /etc/ is not in LE)

    $ nano /storage/swop_astrometa_frontend.sh

    The content of the script :

    add to swop_astrometa_frontend.sh

    #!/bin/bash

    #swops frontend for Astrometa DVB-T/T2 usb dongle ID 15f4:0131 HanfTek

    #this is necessary due to device having single demux

    systemctl stop service.tvheadend42 &&

    cd /dev/dvb/adapter5 && mv frontend0 frontend99 && mv frontend1 frontend0 &&

    systemctl start service.tvheadend42

    made it executable with

    $ chmod 755 swop_astrometa_frontend.sh

    STEP 3

    $ nano /storage/.config/autostart.sh

    add to swop_astrometa_frontend.sh

    /storage/swop_astrometa_frontend.sh

    after this reboot the machine, after it reboots, check by doing

    $ ls /dev/dvb/adapter5

    and you should get

    demux0 dvr0 frontend0 frontend99 net0

    My is 2014 revision. It's recognized by libreelec and TVH,
    But in THV have the bug that i referred.

    After reboot THV not reconized DVB-C and if recognized get no sinal bug or all tuners goes to RED color.
    I think the THV and drivers have problems with order detection of Tuners [ 1x RTL2832 ( DVB-T) and 2x MN88473( DVB-T2 / C) , because when i reboot, it not works any more. Just work at first boot when i scan channels. After reboot is very difficult get it working again( need many reboots and disable tricks)...

    I think that's the problem:
    Tvheadend starting slowly with a HD-901T2 DVB-T2 USB stick: The udev solution


    HOOOWWW i found one solution FIX!!!

    Thanks a lot for your 8.2.5-6.42.1-kernel-4.16.9.
    In J4105M, sometimes it not boot. Stay in ASROCK logo. Maybe some UEFI BUG, i don't know.
    But i think that it happens to me 1 time with one of your older version too.
    I haven't tested other versions to see if happens too, because i bought it last week and just tested your builds.

    BUGS:
    -Audio Over HDMI have some artifacts.
    -HDMI CEC on Simplink LG, ( No Peripherals at System -> Input Devices)


    Tested with TVH4.2 :
    -DVB drivers are ok, replace my tuner S952v3 untill received new one, it load my (astrometa stick MN88473).
    -Transcoding are working for 1 FullHD channel webtv-h264-aac-matroska

    I will do more tests...

    It can help people for that have one tuner Astrometa MN88473
    BUG
    Using DVB-C, from astrometa stick MN88473 in THV:
    1)First star ok, tuned recognized
    2)I tune it for, DVB-T/ DVB-C
    3)Appear all ok.
    4)After reboot it take many time to start TVH service and after 3-5 minutes, THV starts and all tuners goes to disabled waiting for select tuner again.
    5)I set DVB-C again selecting at this time, just this tuner.
    6)Reboot again and all tuners are enabled again!!!!! (Greencolor), but i just enabled one!!!
    7)After reboot again, it can happens again, and sometimes i need to repeat this process from step 4)

    5schatten Thanks a lot! It works.
    Now i can access to TVH, but i can tune any channel.
    No drivers for DVBSky S952 are included .

    Hi, tx for contributing, do you have some git for this changes too ? Also might we "need" some of the change at the official LE ?Can you

    CvH, can you give some help to test my bundle? i haven't find any version o libreelec that are able to use J4105M + DVBSky S952.
    I can buy some beers for contributors!!! Best Regards,

    Hi, SKY42.
    Thanks a lot for your work.

    I tried the version (8.2.5-6.42 kernel 4.16) with my setup:
    -J4105M
    -DVBSky S952

    But TVHeadend are not working.
    I used 4.2 from repository and tested 4.3 from nightly builds and no way to access the server :9981
    I used the plugin Tvh2Kodi for access via kodi and it says that THV are not running.

    Other ports like 8080 works.
    There are any way to get TVH working?

    Best Regards, Nuno

    Hi CvH.

    I want to bluid one small server for 4Channels DVB s2.
    But i need to transcode 1 or 2 HD channels to.

    Can you give me your feedback.
    I'm planning to buy:

    2x DVBSky S952 PCIe card (low profile) with 2x DVB-S2 tuner (Dual Twin Tuner)
    DVBSky S952 PCIe card (low profile) with 2x DVB-S2 tuner (Dual Twin Tuner), CD with windows software: Amazon.es: Informática

    ASRock J3455M (90-MXB450-A0UAYZ)
    https://www.amazon.es/asrock-j3455m-integrada-procesador-integrado/dp/b01mpxjldu/ref=sr_1_1

    You think that tunner works good in libreelec 8X or 9X and i can use transcode for 1 or 2 channels with intel quick sync on this board?

    If not, you can recommend some setup like this?
    Your reply are very appreciated.
