I found the problem, I forgot to add:

CONFIG_DVB_TBSECP3=m

Now it looks like this:

Now I will install TvHeadEnd and see if really works

Thank you very much for your support!

I was too optimistic...

After installing TvHeadEnd (even before I had installed TvHeadEnd but I was not connecting the USB device before installing it) I got the same error as before:

Anything I can still do?

Now the issues are becoming more serious:

Do you have any idea what the problem could be?

Thanks for sharing the patch but unfortunately it doesn't work:

No, you need to add the kernel patch when compiling the image. Go read the thread smp linked.

He added only a link to this commit: https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_m…9f5f604187cc616

Or Did I miss something here?

Only if you build a custom LE image with the drivers for TBS5530.

Is it enough to do the steps to build a customer LE image and the drivers for TBS5530 will be automatically included?

Or is it more than that?

Quote from chewitt

The LE buildsystem still supports creating an RPi(1) image, but even if you patch the kernel to support the TBS card it's not going to run well as the board has only 512MB RAM and modern Kodi needs more. That's the reason we dropped support for all boards with under 1GB RAM. If you want to run the board as an e.g. Tvheadend server-only LE device, that should be fine, but server running in the background and Kodi doing playback will be too much.
NB: Although it's not hard to compile a custom LE image, it requires a certain skillset, so it's probably easier to run a server-only setup from a RaspiOS image as this will have a ton of HOWTO guides for the task.

You're right. I plan to have a TvHeadEnd server-only LE device, and frankly, it will be used only for testing purposes, not daily use.

If you think it would be easier to use RaspiOS instead of LE then I thought I got it wrong - I was assuming LE is more plug-play solution using LE, but for some specific setups might not be the case.

Hello, I'm very new here and as a LibreElec user - could you please let me know if it is possible to have TBS5530 working with RPi 1 since support LibreElec support finished with version 9.2.6?

I've tried RPi with LibreElec 9.2.6 but it is not working.
