  • TVHeadEnd not finding channels

    I have installed LE on an AMD A10-5500 system with a Hauppauge WinTV 2255. Installed the TVHeadEnd server/back-end and configured via http. The LG frontend is listed in the device list, configured a Network (ATSC-T Network), and use the preconfigured MUXes for the Seattle area (confirmed the freqs were correct). There are no channels or services found and the status is failed.

    dmesg (http://ix.io/1lmw) shows that the driver is loaded along with the proper version of FW. It appears to start with no error.

    Here's the Kodi log (http://ix.io/1lms), Not that familiar with it, but there's no smoking gun that I see.

    I also tried w_scan using the -a option to point to the device directly when auto detect didn't work.

    VanceMC:/dev/dvb/adapter0 # w_scan -a /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 0 -fa -A2 -c US -X
    w_scan -a /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0 0 -fa -A2 -c US -X
    w_scan version 20170107 (compiled for DVB API 5.10)
    using settings for UNITED STATES
    ATSC
    QAM US/CA
    scan type TERRCABLE_ATSC, channellist 2
    output format czap/tzap/szap/xine
    WARNING: could not guess your codepage. Falling back to 'UTF-8'
    output charset 'UTF-8', use -C <charset> to override
    -_-_-_-_ Getting frontend capabilities-_-_-_-_
    main:4019: FATAL: FE_GET_INFO failed: 19 No such device

    I need some help determining why this isn't working.

    Thanks.
