I wonder if someone would be able to offer some advice?
I recently noticed that TVHeadend is not allowing me to scan/watch any channels on DVB-T. DVB-S is still working fine. It's a dual tuner DVBSky T9580 V3. I'm not sure when this stopped working as I had not used it for a while. I am using the LibreELEC 9.2.6 x86_64, I'm using the latest nightly of TVH 4.3, and I have tried 4.2 too.
After a LOT of googling a number of people had had the same issue with the later versions of firmware dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw version B 4.0.25 and I should use version 4.0.4 to 11.
So with this information, I did the following to set an earlier version.
cd /lib/firmware
mv dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw.old
wget dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
reboot
But after a reboot and typing 'dmesg | grep si2168' is shows that the version 25 firmware is redownloaded.

Can anyone offer some advice on forcing earlier firmware versions from 4.0.4 to 4.0.11 and NOT 25?
Thanks.
