Hi,
I bought the MyGica T230A tuner. I didn't know there would be a problem with the letter A.
When I connected it to rpi with libreelec, dmesg showed something like this:
[ 262.006051] usb 1-1.1: new high-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd
[ 262.097416] usb 1-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=0572, idProduct=689a, bcdDevice= 8.00
[ 262.097433] usb 1-1.1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[ 262.097448] usb 1-1.1: Product: USB Stick
[ 262.097462] usb 1-1.1: Manufacturer: Gen
[ 262.097475] usb 1-1.1: SerialNumber: 2017.12.09
This tuner has entries in the "inf" file of the windows driver identical to the T230C v2 :
%TC68A_DVB.DeviceDesc% = TC68A_DVB, USB\VID_0572&PID_C68A
%TC68A_DVB.DeviceDesc% = TC68A_DVB, USB\VID_0572&PID_689A
I patched the files: dvb-usb-ids.h, dvbsky.c and built a new image libreelec.
After running, dmesg shows now:
[ 262.006051] usb 1-1.1: new high-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd

What could that mean?
Is there a problem with the firmware?
Can it be fixed somehow?
