I need to check my patch again.

k1pro has two tuners:

avl6211 dvb-s2
avl6862 dvb-t2

I need to check my patch again.

correct is 3 tunners:S2 , T2 and C ( tuner hybrid)

I tried it and I got it OK without changing anything. I think this is a 4K problem and I can't help you with that because I have no 4K TVs to try.

Thanks for your time, so meta-amlogic is ok now and it builds just fine but dvb support (avl patch) is not ok.

Tomorrow I will share 3 more test images:

1- without avl patch
2- with avl patch but different k1pro.dts
3- with avl patch but different kernel config

At least now we can add more models based on what we have in meta-amlogic but not just me, please contribute and share the needed sources with me so I can do things faster.

For example k2pro, what we know about it?

 

Here is what I have found about KI Plus, KII Pro, KI Pro and KIII Pro:

 

KI Plus: Amlogic S905 , Mali T450, RAM 1 GB DDR3, ROM 8 GB, Tuner AVL6862 (Hybrid Tuner DVB-S2/T2)

KII Pro (Old version): Amlogic S905, Mali T450, RAM 2 GB DDR3, ROM 16 GB, Tuner AVL6862 (Hybrid Tuner DVB-S2/T2)

KII Pro (New version): Amlogic S905D, Mali T450, RAM 2 GB DDR3, ROM 16 GB, Tuner AVL6862 (Hybrid Tuner DVB-S2/T2)

KI Pro: Amlogic S905D, Mali T450, RAM 2 GB DDR4, ROM 16 GB, Tuner AVL6862 (Combo Tuner DVB-S2/C2/T2)

KIII Pro: Amlogic S912, Mali T820, RAM 3 GB DDR3, ROM 16 GB, Tuner AVL6862 (Combo Tuner DVB-S2/C2/T2)

 

So what I found is that tuner is same in all, i.e, AVL6862.

I have a suggestion, can we replace existing linux kernel in the recipe with this https://github.com/C...nux-amlogic.git?

In this case, we have the kernel source of AVL6862 included and this source works well with all KI, KII and KIII boxes (in case of LibreELEC and CoreELEC).

I'm doing something similar but it's not just a rename, wait for a new test image

[Persian Prince]

I did push some updates regarding warnings so now you will see less errors, I was sick of those myself.

[Persian Prince]

I did add new recipes for linux-mecool from CoreELEC but now I can't compile it, try it yourself ...

[engineerkhan15]

Thanks a  lot. I will try now.

[Persian Prince]

Is there any working bitbake recipe for amlogic that has the avl sources? Because I can't find even 1 working version on this planet.

I did try https://github.com/C...C/linux-amlogic (both amlogic-3.14-osmc and amlogic-3.14.y branches) with no luck.

 

I have no idea how to compile a kernel for k1pro.

I find also AlexElec Kernel

https://github.com/A...EC/AlexELEC-AML

 

How i can modify the defconfig to compile this kernel?

There is problem in compiling the linux-mecool kernel due to certain configuration mismatches.

However, by adding the oe_runmake command in the kernel recipe I was able to get "aml_dmx.o", "aml_dvb.o", "aml_fe.o", "avl6862.o", "r848a.o" files from the "dvb-avl" folder in the linux-mecool kernel.

So, it means that if we just add the "dvb-avl" folder from "linux-mecool" to "linux-linkdroid" kernel at path "/drivers/amlogic/" and add "oe_runmake ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/" command in the recipe then we can compile the dvb driver for AVL6862.

So we can replace the dvb driver installation lines in the recipe, somewhat like:

  do_compile_prepend () {
  oe_runmake ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/
  install -d ${B}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/
  cp -fr ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/aml_fe.o  ${B}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/
  cp -fr ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/avl6862.o  ${B}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/
  cp -fr ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/r848a.o  ${B}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/
  cp -fr ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/aml_dvb.o  ${B}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/
  cp -fr ${S}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/aml_dmx.o  ${B}/drivers/amlogic/dvb-avl/

Here r848 is the tuner chip and avl6862 is the demodulator chip (I think).

Hi! For me on DM 920 blind scan is not working. Any idea to solved?

 

Thanks!

[zeros]

Does with PLI blind scan working at all? Which boxes are supported?
If it doesn't work on any supported boxes, we don't have anything to talk about.
