Lorddarks you have volar hd stick, right?
I have it too. Waiting for malakudi help!

[Pedro_Newbie]

i asked that because af9005 is an old chip that af9015 replaced it. have you tried to do modprobe v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb-af9005 ?
what is the result of doing that?
opkg install v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb-af9005


thank you

Please guide me step by step.
I installed the package with opkg install v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb-af9005
When I do: modprobe v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb-af9005 the result is: FATAL: Module v4l_dvb_module_dvb_usb_af9005 not found

[pieterg]

the module is probably called 'dvb-usb-af9005'.
If you modprobe that, it'll complain (dmesg) about missing dependencies, so you have to install a few move v4l-dvb-modules.
When you can modprobe it successfully, you need to create a file /etc/modutils/v4l, and put 'dvb-usb-af9005' in it.
Run update-modules, and reboot.
With a bit of luck, it'll work. (possibly you need to find a working firmware file, and put it in /lib/firmware)

[lorddarks]

yes i have volar black hd.

for volar black hd:

I think it will work but i can try right now since there is football.

for firmware you can download from here (it works on linux i think on vu duo too):
http://www.otit.fi/~...firmware_files/

for ad9005:

firmware:
http://ventoso.org/l...f9005/af9005.fw

i think you should load more than those two modules to make it work. i will look for which modules in the list. could you post the content of /etc/modutils please?

[lorddarks]

modules that i think should be loaded too are:

dvb-core
dvb-pll
dvb-usb
usbvideo

i do not if more or if there is a module that is not needed.

pieterg can you explain with a little more detail what we have to put on modutils?

[pieterg]

modules that i think should be loaded too are:

dvb-core
dvb-pll
dvb-usb
usbvideo

dvb-core is automatically loaded
usbvideo doesn't sound familiar?

btw, dependencies (dvb-pll / dvb-usb and possibly others) will be found and loaded by modprobe. Just make sure you install them.

pieterg can you explain with a little more detail what we have to put on modutils?

Just one line, containing the name of the module.
This is the actual hardware module, no need to add dependencies, modprobe will find them.

[Taykun345]

Ok, i installed af9015 driver and i get this when i do "dmesg". When i try modprobe nothing happens!

And how do i install all those modules (dvb-pll ...)?


I created zzz_usbtuner file and i put dvb-usb-af9015 line in it. I also got firmware files and put them in lib/firmware (i had to create it manually). Anything else?

For A850 devices you need:
v4l-dvb-module-dvb-pll
v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb
v4l-dvb-module-mxl5005s
v4l-dvb-module-mxl5007t
v4l-dvb-module-af9013
v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb-af9015

and appropriate firmware files in /lib/firmware (dvb-fe-af9013.fw and dvb-usb-af9015.fw )

you also need package usbtunerhelper

To test, install all above packages, then run:
depmod -a
modprobe dvb-usb-af9015

and check if /dev/dvb/adapter1 was created fine. If it did, then run:
/etc/init.d/usbtunerhelper start

and check /proc/bus/nim_sockets (it should display your usb tuner)
then restart enigma2 (killall enigma2) and your usb tuner will be detected by enigma2.
To make all work after reboot, add a modutils rule to load your tuner driver.

[Taykun345]

thanks! Now i can see tuner in the image.

[Taykun345]

malakudi, i need your help.

After reboot, DVB-T tuner isnt recognised anymore. Apperantly i made something wrong.

I created zzz_usbtuner and put this line in: dvb-usb-af9015

Anything else?

[lorddarks]

Dear Taykun345

I think you need to do what pieterg said:

When you can modprobe it successfully, you need to create a file /etc/modutils/v4l, and put 'dvb-usb-af9005' in it.


but you have to include dvb-usb-af9015 instead the 9005 one.



edit:

I'm trying it right now, where can I find this package: usbtunerhelper?


thanks

[Taykun345]

I do have file zzz_usbtuner in /etc/modutils

zzz_usbtuner contains dvb-usb-af9015

[lorddarks]

so maybe you need af9013 there too.

[lorddarks]

Pieterg said that file must be named v4l try it too.

[Taykun345]

ok i will try

[stanley1]

Hauppauge nova-t supported driver dib0700. I have used "opkg install v4l-dvb-module-dvb-usb-dib0700" to configure but I cannot see it in tuner configuration, do i need some other files?

[lorddarks]

after all the process i get that in dmesg

[pieterg]

Pieterg said that file must be named v4l try it too.

sorry, I forgot this is about the vuduo.
The names of the modutils files are not important, but remember that they are parsed in alphabetical order.
So on the vuduo, which I believe has a modutils file 'vuduo', 'v4l' will not work, because the t adapter should not be the first dvb adapter.
So z_something will work.

Remember to run 'update-modules' after you've changed modutils files.

[lorddarks]

thank you pieterg.

anyone knows a possible solution to the I2C errors?

thanks
