Usage: diff [-abBdiNqrTstw] [-L LABEL] [-S FILE] [-U LINES] FILE1 FILE2

Compare files line by line and output the differences between them.
This implementation supports unified diffs only.

        -a      Treat all files as text
        -b      Ignore changes in the amount of whitespace
        -B      Ignore changes whose lines are all blank
        -d      Try hard to find a smaller set of changes
        -i      Ignore case differences
        -L      Use LABEL instead of the filename in the unified header
        -N      Treat absent files as empty
        -q      Output only whether files differ
        -r      Recurse
        -S      Start with FILE when comparing directories
        -T      Make tabs line up by prefixing a tab when necessary
        -s      Report when two files are the same
        -t      Expand tabs to spaces in output
        -U      Output LINES lines of context
        -w      Ignore all whitespace

No, patch is applied on the kernel modules. You can just run it like this.

If you installed kernel modules and it is not working please install OpenPLi 4.0 before report any other issue.

[41 watts]

this is the patch from -

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/media/common/siano/sms-cards.c?id=9e915e5bc8dfa3380c376a5e10f1abe8c17f324a

[athoik]

The kernel modules uploaded contain above patch and they build for OpenPLi 4.0

So please, please install first OpenPLi 4.0.

Awesome Athoik

It works perfectly. Tuner C appears on my list of Tuners with the DVB tuner listed.  I now have all the dvb-t channels.  Thank you very much.  I am very impressed with your skill and committement.  I also have a serious problem with my tuner.  Whenever I reboot or run a plugin, the system finds it very hard to tune in the channels.  It immediately recognises 'movies4men' and by alternating between any of the BBC's and Movies4men the tune eventually establishes itself (after about 5 cycles) and the channels are all restored and stay tuned.

[malakudi]

That patch is wrong, it will break ISDB-T siano based adapters. Has it been committed to Linux kernel?

 

The reason smsdvb is not always autoloaded is exactly that, to distinguish between DVB and ISDB-T adapters. You have to whitelist which PnP IDs are using DVB and which are using ISDB-T.

[41 watts]

the other symptom is when I switch between the DVB tune and the satellite tune, I have the same issue.  The switch from sat to dvb is almost immediate but the switch from dvb to sat takes up to 7 cycles between movies4men (why this channel) and a sat channel

[athoik]

Yes patch is commited since 3.10 kernel.

https://git.kernel.o...0f1abe8c17f324a
 

Maybe they solve ISDB-T vs DVB-T in another way?

 

(Or they solved one problem but introduce a new one?...)

@malakudi,

 

 

Are you sure above patch is breaking ISDB-T? 

 

Because i would like to submit that patch for submission. It's petty so many people to have problems with their siano based DVB-T sticks.

[eduardolino]

 Hello read the whole topic and tried to connect August DVB T202 tuner to DM500HD but without success. Tell me if somebody run this tuner on DM500HD or on DM800se. Or please place here ready for installation .ipk files for DM500HD or HD800se. Thank you!

[athoik]

Here are the kernel modules for dm800se compiled with patch that always loads smsdvb (backported patch).

[eduardolino]

thank you athoik! i will try it at as soon as posible. may you compile .ipk for dm500hd, if it is posible please. thank you again!

[athoik]

I will create a patch for OpenPLi inclusion...

@malakudi,

I think it does, but anyway we don't use ISDB-T in Europe so we can't test it. Since it is included in linux kernel, I would say prepare a patch for OpenPLI inclusion, and if someone with ISDB-T complains, we'll check it again.

[pieterg]

+1, enigma2 probably does not even support ISDB-T at the moment, so we should not worry about it.
