Hello everybody!

I have a TBS 5680 DVB-C USB Tuner (link).
The tuner has worked like a charm in older releases done by you CvH, but after updating to the recent builds it doesnt find the tuner during startup. Dont remember what release i was on before, but it was some release from summer/fall 2016.

Is there some way to doublecheck if tbs5680 is supported within the driver thats shipped with the 7.95.1 betas?

Here are dmesg from two of the images i tested with:

LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-7.95.1
LibreELEC_7.95.1 - Pastebin.com

LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-7.95.1-cc-drivers-18.01.2017
LibreELEC_7.95.1-CC - Pastebin.com

(When LibreELEC had booted up, i tried to disconnect/connect the USB-tuner. So thats the thingie that shows up last in the dmesg-logs)

Quote from CvH

The error says that the storage Path is not found - this is due the LiveBoot. You could do it manually. Just create dvb-drivers.txt in downloads.
In the dvb-drivers.txt needs to be one of this.

Code

4.4.7-tbs
4.4.7-tbs-dvbc
4.4.7-crazycat
4.4.7-ljalves-cc
4.4.7-media_build

But you have to look that you write this in this file without ANY space character or line ending.

I just want to report back after my clean LE-installation (of this 1.01 customimage). All went fine but I got the same errormessage as JohnBoyz, the workaround that CvH pasted here did the trick for me (the .txt file was missing).

I now have everything up and running again. Smooth installation and my TBS5680 (usb) worked instantly after installing the Crazycat driver

The new way implementing the different drivers seems neat! Will leave OE and do a fresh install of LE tomorrow.
Thank you for the outstanding work LE-crew! And CvH, you are a hero to us TBS owners
