Incidentally what for DVB-C tuner you use?

 

http://www.linuxtv.o...B-C_USB_Devices

 

Any tuner listed with linux support - in the same time you need to find if driver exists in linux 3.1

 

Maybe there is a limitation (which should not be) with Sundtek driver.

 

I can confirm two usb tuners: dvb-s2 and atsc type are working with vu-duo so your stb is working correctly.

Unfortunately I have no other USB tuner. Only Sundtek (dvb-c) and  MSI Digivox (dvb-t).

No, I can`t  switch between the tuner. If both tuners connect, then DVB-T recognizes but works Sundtek... weird right? To force work DVB-T actually, I need to get Sundtek out. So they only work separately from each other.

Yes, I also think that  Sundtek may another usb tuner disturb. Not sure but ...

you can try to insert a config line in /etc/sundtek.conf

But .... there again though.
Both the tuner does not work with existing settings.
After the setting and Autoscanning they have no channels found.

What disturbs now???

I guess openpli mixes up the frontend allocation once someone registers vtuner1 first and afterwards vtuner0

Registering vtuner1 will probably bind it to /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend1 (maybe 2) while vtuner0 will bind it to frontend2 (maybe 3).

We added some identifier to the frontend name to be able to match up /dev/dvb/adapterX/frontend0 with /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontendY

Actually the dvb-core should take care properly of the dvb adapters numbering. I guess you are missing this functionality in the driver.

Not sure why you need to do binding inside of the driver when kernel module  should be taking care of that.

I understand driver is not open source. Too bad.

[ ] you have no idea what you are writing about.

our dongles can also be used via network (eg. from a NAS server, Router, upcoming even windows). There's no kernel Module available for doing that (and it would even be useless to work around that one).

Aside of that we are only using interfaces which were designed to be used on Linux.

Obviously we probably submitted more code to the kernel as you ever did in your life and are still helping to improve the USB performance.

Plus that said we have signed various NDAs with Chip vendors which guarantees active support for all chipsets we use and thus we also keep our drivers up to date. And to clarify what NDA means Non disclosure agreement, so we are not even allowed to disclose anything.

 

We forwarded the issue to VU+ that vtuner nodes shouldn't be allowed to be opened multiple times, I think this is one problem I read on this forum.

Aside of that if you want more or less perfect integration of external tuners (by using a plugin interface)

 

You can have a look at that openpli patch which has been done within 2012

No problem - I stand corrected.

Then please tell why an opensource dongle driver is working properly with the also closed source vuplus driver.

Except that they are using opensource dvb-core to control the functionality.

Why should they adapt around your closed source driver ?

It`s your product...not mine. Myself I will rather buy opensource dongle instead, if it cannot work properly.

I really doubt you can find this in current openpli code.

I can see you hardcoded the adapter number in your patch. Is this a requirement of your driver ?

@westisib

 

I also noticed your vu-duo is failing with i2c writting. Strange behaviour.

 

[DFP]: bcm7335_i2c_write: Error 1114113

[DFP]: bcm7335_max_i2c_write: Error 1114113

I do not know whether that strange or not.
Unfortunately, I am not an expert
Where exactly is a mistake? On PLi, Sundtek or Vu +?
What else should I set?

I don't even know what your problem is, our devices work very well for most people out there.

The virtual ones (using vtuner) always register within adapter0.

I have no problem with you - except trying to help out.

In the same time I also gain some more knowledge -  BTW you got pm.

Maybe someone else is also interested in this, we have some vtuner module for SH4 based settopboxes.

At the first stage we're trying to improve support for it, once our new devices are available the module will be officially released so image groups can take over maintainance for it.

 

Our drivers already have support for SH4 for a long time, but the vtuner interface on SH4 STBs was missing.

This also means that other STB companies can reference to this upcoming vtuner module, and possibly improve support for their implementation.
