View Full Version : [VU+ Ultimo] Dvbt stick
Hi everybody,
My first post, so I would like to take this oportunity to thank Andy and the whole VIX team for the image.
I have been using it since it was first made - so one can say that I am a bit expienced.
Generally there were no problems to install dib0700 and as102 dvbt sticks on many versions VIX images on my Vu duo and ultimo, althou VIX was always installed in multiboot. ( Yes, I know that no team supports images in multiboot)
For me the easiest way to make dvbt stick working was to follow Angelofsky1980'advice of BH forum (MeoBoot and DVB USB devices).
After putting Angelofsky'file 'usbtunerhelper' into tmp I usually use PUTTY (ipkg install /tmp/usbtunerhelper_1.0+git0+02a71102c0acc752d030d6f1fe 2a222f0db8b232-r1_mipsel.ipk), or just remote control to install it.
In this way I succesfully installed dvbt sticks on VIX2.4.96 and101 on my both duo and ultimo.
But after a day or two since VIX.101 was issued it is impossibile for me to get dvbt working.
Tried almost everything (fresh image-10 times, no addons, downloading drivers from VIX server etc.) without succes.
One thing is stange for me: messages read in PUTTY or on tv screan during downloading files from VIX server inform about errors.
Can it be possibile that DVBT files on VIX server are broken? (after maintanence)
Althou I have quite good images in my multiboots (BH, AAF,OpenPLI,VTI) I find the VIX image the best.
After ten days of various tests I have no idea what can I do more- that's the reason for my post.
If anybody would like to help- thanks in advance.

Next Release Note after build 101 ---
2.4 Build 112:
enigma2: HelpMenu: fix posible BSOD.
enigma2: fix 3D setting on Vu's.
openwebif: add new ViX setting menu to Menu Panel (still needs work).
picons: update zonka.cc to 2012-05-17
system: merge from PLi 18-05-2012 - this includes Linux 3.3 for ET's.
vix-skins: update transponder info for new PliExtraInfo, fix simple channelselection screen title.
The openPLi merge has gotten rid of the usbtunerhelper and now the detection of dvbt frontends etc is supposed to be handled directly. Perhaps you should try to install the devices without your old methods. I think it is supposed to detect your devices automatically?
cheers
Thanks for quick answer.
I've tried Your advice. Sorry, - no result.
Frankly speaking I tried this earlier with VIX2.4.101 and now with VIX2.4.135 (no succes).
Any way of instalation of dvbt stick should result in appearing files 'usbtunerhelper' in etc/initd and in usr/bin (I suppose)
No matter which way of instalation I choose there are no such files and dvbt stick isn't seen in tuner configuration although it is able to gather
DVBT EPG (strange for me).
Having read Raitsa's opinion (VU DUO talk forum) I decidet to put VIX2.4.135 in my ultimo's flash (I mean without meoboot)- no succes.
The same was done with VIX2.4.101- the same result
To make things more clear I'd like to say that in my ultimo there is VIX2.4.101 in multiboot and there my dvbt sicks (as102&dib0700)work ok.
As I've written in my first post it was very easy before buid 112.
But being lazy I dowloaded some plugins thru TS Panel and I one of them I had to remove -this made my box unable to update VIX.
For the time being my only suspicion is that there can be something wrong with ultimo's dvbt drivers on VIX server (sorry saying this)
Can it be the reason for my problems?
Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance

The usbtunerhelper will no longer help you!

dvb/frontend: handle usb vtuner mapping internally
When we make the mapping ourselves, we know which usb frontend
is mapped to which virtual vtuner frontend, so we can open
the usb frontend instead of the virtual frontend, and avoid
having to pump control and status messages around.
This implementation replaces the external usbtunerhelper.

If your device is not automatically detected then maybe start a telnet session:
opkg install firmware-dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20
opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-dib0700
or something similar.
Then reboot, do not run usbtunerhelper!
Thanks stick50jr for Your interest and time.
I have followed Your suggestions and done:
1 fresh install build 135
2 with plugin panel downloaded dib0700 drivers
(during instalation , among infos noticed "fatal: module dvb usb_dib0700 not found")
3 reboot
4 usb tuner not visible in infobar, nor in tuner configuration although it is seen in telnet after typing "lsusb" and total commander in
/0:/etc/modutils/
next test:
1 fresh install build 135
2 with PUTTY: opkg install firmware-dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20 and after this: opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-dib0700
(telnet displayed lots of infos on downloadings and installings different drivers but ended with "fatal:
module dvb usb_dib0700 not found")
3 reboot
4 usb tuner not visible in infobar, nor in tuner configuration although it is seen in telnet after typing "lsusb",
seen also in /0:/etc/modutils/ (total commander)
Do You or anybody tried to install dvbt stick recently (I mean after VIX 2.4.112)? 'cause seen 2 infos abt problems
Any help apreciated - thanks in advance

I must confess that I am away from home this month and will be looking into the issue of usb dvb-t installation on the new Vix for duo (2.4 etc) when I get home. (Currently running on Vix 2.3.204). I usually use an Avermedia A825 TwinStar (dual afatech 9035 chipset) but I also have a Hauppauge Nova TD Stick (dual dib0700). I will let you know how I get on in two weeks time if you haven't solved the problem by then!
Sorry I haven't been able to suggest anything that worked so far. BTW the fatal error doesn't mean anything much... it has always cropped up recently but hasn't prevented the device being recognised after a proper re-boot.
cheers
OK, thanks
Must admit there is a sign of progress: managed to make dvbt usb running on VIX135 in flash
(without multiboot).
That was only possibile by FTP enigma2-plugin-drivers-dvb-usb-dib0700_1.0-r3_mipsel.rar.
Keep trying to install by downloading drivers from VIX server.
Thanks for asistance, will inform abt results
jarek
Mates I'm having the very some issue:
the USB DVB-T support is not working as it should.
This time I tried installing an Avermedia A867 (the Sky Italy with blue led)
Stating to some info available on the net the a867 should belong to the af9035 drivers family. But Installing using that driver not worked.
So, back to another post in which stick50jr suggested to install the dib0700 firmware i tried that too, no luck. No usb Tuner detected.
From the sifteam forum I got the a867 driver and I extracted some files from the .ipk installer made by Sifteam for the latest Koala (based on Pli)
so I installed dvb-usb-a867 in /etc/modutils
and dvb-usb-a867.ko in modules/3.1.1./kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb
but I noticed that in the latest path there was missing the dvb-usb.ko and I put it there. Rebooted (not simple e2 restart) and the Tuner was there. Choosed the right setting for Italy started a scan and 0 services found. Damn. I tried many other terrestrial.xml but with no luck.
here are some results of telnet:
mesg | grep dvb

Any clue?
a little correction for the previous post.
the correct path for the dvb-usb-a867.ko
is:
/lib/modules/3.1.1./kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb
Now I want to add some other infos:
checking the content of /lib/firmware the dvb related firmware files are:
dvb-usb-af9035-01.fw
dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw
dvb-usb-dibusb-5.0.0.11.fw
dvb-usb-dibusb-6.0.0.8.fw
dvb-usb-dibusb-an2235-01.fw
all with 644 permissions
so apparently something strictly related do a867 is not present (this encouraging my thoughts that a867 is an af9035-01.fw based tuner).
on the openpli forum there's this topic (http://openpli.org/forums/topic/20951-avermedia-a867-sky-digital-key-new-patch-and-strange-problem-with-plihd/page__gopid__280740#entry280740) related to a867, but I'm not a coder and I'm not able to follow them as I wished.
it seems that openpli has a driver for kernel 3.1.1
this should be:
kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867_3.1.1-r16.7_vuduo.ipk
but I really don't know how to grab it from their feed. Any help?
Ok mates, I managed to grab a867 kernel module both for DUO and ULTIMO.
Here are the links:
kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867_3.1.1-r4.16_vuduo.ipk
(http://www.mediafire.com/?8rdx27y1bkbvf55)
kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867_3.1.1-r4.16_vuultimo.ipk (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?rl4idc1qqmpeeqj)
I've not tested them since I'm at work.
The only thing I noticed is that theese ipk DO NOT embed any .FW.
So, maybe we have to first install the af9035 driver (a867 seems to belong to that family) and than the a867 kernel module. But we may need to tweek the af9035 to point to a867 modules, I syppose. Am i wrong?
EDIT:
the two above links are from SIFTEAM distribution for KOALA image. So the control file inside the ipk points to path not similar to our VIX.
for what I've seen here are the contents of that ipk:
control.tar.gz
which contains:

for what I understand (correct me please) it seems that the driver relay on many different other files and patches for tha af9035, the it9135, the PCTV and so on.
So, what could be a possible way to have he a867 installed and working.
I've not been able to get the two ipk installer from OPENpli feed so I realy don't know if the openpli ones point to different paths and on different dependencies, modules.

As advised in your topic (http://openpli.org/forums/topic/20951-avermedia-a867-sky-digital-key-new-patch-and-strange-problem-with-plihd/page__gopid__280740#entry280740) link, there is no firmware needed for the a867 because the equivalent code is within the driver.
I had a look and see that there is a driver in the Vix feeds which can be installed from a telnet session:
opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
This is a later release 3.1.1-r16.8 than the one you mentioned earlier and the ones above.
I don't have an a867 but maybe you should try installing this and then do a re-boot.
This will install the following files only:
/etc/modutils/dvb-usb-a867
/lib/modules/3.1.1./kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-a867.ko
I don't think that it relies on all those other files. The modutils entry will guide the system in discovering the driver file when you do the re-boot (with any luck!).
I have an a825 which is supported by the af9035 driver. With this latest version of Vix (ie 2.4), it stops working after a gui restart, so you may also have to do a full re-boot everytime the gui is restarted to get the thing working again. Apparently this restart problem is for all usb-dvb devices under Vix 2.4 and also openPLi.
Hi stick,
thx for replying.
I'm wondering why the driver is not made available in the Plugin GUI.
Anyhow, I'll try your instructions, to be honest last week I did try to issue a opkg install command but that kernel module was not found.
Maybe they have put it recently.
Before installin the module I'm issueing a opkg update && opkg upgrade.
Let's see.
P.S.
how did you check the availability of the module in the feed?
I just used a867 instead of af9035 and the command did something
opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
The fatal error can be ignored, its an openPLi/Vix feature!
... then I issued additional commands:
opkg files kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
opkg depends kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
but as I don't have the device, I didn't do anything else.
They haven't got around to creating a meta package that can be installed from the plugin gui... I guess there are plenty of devices that haven't been supported to this extent yet. Even the af9035 was not supported via the plugin gui in Vix 2.3. They have added a fair few in Vix 2.4 but not the a867. If you can confirm that the a867 is working okay, then Andyblac will probably add it in some time.
I suspect that usb-dvb devices have had a low priority in the Vu images, because they have all been unstable due to problems attributed to the closed Vu kernel drivers by the open developers. However, the elimination of usbtunerhelper has improved stability IMHO, just a bit inconvenient having to reboot whenever there has been a gui restart.
mmm something went wrong:
at first after update and upgrde (but not rebooted) I issued_

I'm wondering if I did right when issued:
opkg update && opkg upgrade
I'm using Vix2.4.143 and it is still fairly clean (very few plugins etc). When I install the a867 driver it certainly doesn't hang.
Maybe you need to revert to a cleaner image after all the frigging around you've been through and also get the dvb-t going before you install all the extras?
Good luck!
Hi fellows,
a big thanks to stick50jr for his suggestions finally I can confirm that I've the a867 (the Sky USB-DVB-T adapter with blue light) up and running smoothly on my DUO (Maybe the instruction would work with ULTIMO aswell)
So here's what I did
- reflashed my DUO to a backup I was sure was working ok (VIX 2.4 build 143 with CCcam2.3.0, OpenVPN, SAMBA)
via telnet session I issued the following commands:
opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
Installing kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867 (3.1.1-r16.8) to root...
Downloading http://enigma2.world-of-satellite.co...16.8_vuduo.ipk.

FATAL: Error inserting dvb_usb_a867 (/lib/modules/3.1.1/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-a867.ko): Invalid module format
then:
opkg files kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
Package kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867 (3.1.1-r16.8) is installed on root and has the following files:
/etc/modutils/dvb-usb-a867

and
opkg depends kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867
kernel-module-dvb-usb-a867 depends on:
update-modules
kernel-3.1.1
after that rebooted and the tuner for DVB-T was displayed and available.
I did a search for the channels (Using the default terestrial.xml I choosed europe,mid est... etc since I'm in Italy) and stored more than 111 channel (al the ones available in this district area).
just to be more exaustive in the description I'll add the following:
dmesg | grep dvb
dvb_demux_feed_del: feed not in list (type=0 state=0 pid=ffff)

I's time to put the driver in the plugin feed!!!
Glad you got it working.
Can you check if it still works on an Enigma restart rather than a full reboot.
argh!!!!
done a GUI restart. The tuner was listed among the available ones BUT it's not tuning any channel at all. It gaves failed tune error message (i'm literally translating it from italian).
I'll look forward for your further instructions

Thought so, a full reboot should work for now.
The team are aware of this issue.
May I ask what is this issue related to?
and why the
dmesg | grep dvb
does not report the a867 in warm state?

Just that recent builds aren't picking up USB TV sticks on a GUI restart.
Did it work again after a full reboot?
I do confirm. After a reboot it's working again.
dmesg | grep dvb

Some of these that haven't made it to the plugin list do actually work.. to wit the a867 discussed in this thread.
But be warned many may have firmware and other dependencies that also need to be located and installed. (The a867 is an exception because it's driver is self sufficient!)

Just been browsing through this thread as I am trying to get my MSI Mega Sky 580 working with my Duo.
In the list above I can see this DVB-T stick listed as "dvb-usb-gl861 kernel module; Driver MSI Mega Sky 580 DVB-T USB2.0 / GL861"
So a week ago I tried the instructions above for this driver,
i.e
opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-gl861
opkg files kernel-module-dvb-usb-gl861
opkg depends kernel-module-dvb-usb-gl861
BTW, I am currently on the latest cut of the OE3.0 build (which I like a lot btw)
Bizarrely the USB stick will work, but only in the front usb - but not in either of the rear ports.
I've tried many reboots and using a powered USB hub for the rear, but no joy.

Just to add to this, I have been "told" by my missus that it won't be left to work like this (with tuner and aerial cable sticking out the front of the unit), and either the tuner goes to the back or it gets removed. So I need a resolution here.
Sometimes wonder who pays the bills in this house.:confused::mad:

OK, Have just ran through this again.
Blackhole 1.7.8
Out-of-the-box - DVB-T MSI Megasky 580 recognised in both front and back usb ports - no additional drivers needed.
VIX OE3.0 latest cut (344??)
Out-of-the-box - DVB-T MSI Megasky 580 NOT recognised in either front and back usb ports
VIX OE3.0 latest cut (344??)
Driver install via:
opkg install kernel-module-dvb-usb-gl861
opkg files kernel-module-dvb-usb-gl861
opkg depends kernel-module-dvb-usb-gl861
DVB-T MSI Megasky 580 is recognised in front USB, but NOT in back usb ports
Bizarre or what???
So at this point if I want to use that tuner I have to go back to Blackhole - but I prefer the OE3.0 UI. Arrrrggghhhh

@ Mods & Dev(s)
Is there any way we can get more official support for DVB-T tuners FOR ALL USB ports.
As above, Blackhole works fine for many DVB-T stcks on all ports OOTB, but I want to use the VIX image.
I like it - my family like it.
If the Blackhole team can get it to work without issue, and a manual install of the gl861 (MSI Mega Sky 580) driver in VIX in my Duo (as above) works for the front port, surely we're more than 1/2 way there aren't we???
Yours in anticipation
MD.
