As I thought, same errors as me on OpenPLI. On OpenATV there are no errors, but maybe you missed the correct mex:

vtunerc0: setting DVB-T tuner type
vtunerc0: usb frontend initialized as type=4

Today develop build will clarify everything.

Mmm... In this commit to avoid conflicts, I see in DVB.cpp:

#if (_IOC_NONE == 0) && (!VMSG_TYPE1)

and about this VMSG_TYPE1, i see in configure.ac:
 

if test "$STBPLATFORM" == "vu1gen" -o "$STBPLATFORM" == "vu2gen"; then
	AC_DEFINE(VMSG_TYPE1, 1,[define vtuner_message type 1])
fi

@WanWizard, take a look...

 

I also see in DVB.cpp :

#include <linux/ioctl.h>

instead in OpenPLI there is only:

#include <sys/ioctl.h>

IT WORKS FINALLY!!!!!!

 

@WanWizard, I tried the develop image of today with the modification we made, and now it works!!! First of all, in dmesg, when system starts, I see this output without errors:

vtunerc0: setting DVB-T tuner vtype
vtunerc0: frontend initialized as type=4
DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (Realtek RTL2832 (DVB-T))...
vtunerc0: usb frontend initialized as type=4
DVB: registering adapter 0 frontend 0 (RTL2832U)...

only strange thing is that it registers frontend two times, but no more errors :D :D

and then, when I try to scan DVB-T in transponders with SNR and AGC, it finds channels :D No more error IOCTL loop, no more :D

I can see the benefit of the #if that OpenVision is using.

 

But is the initial header file needed or not, as it is working now?


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Many answers to your question can be found in our new and improved wiki.

That are great news!

 

Could you please set the topic on the other forum to solved?

It may work because one of the other header files include linux/ioctl.h. Maybe direct or indirect by including another linux/....h file.

I don't know... I can tell you that now it works perfectly!!!
If someone has the Astrometa DVB-T2 RTL2832P (not the 2018 version that has Sony CXD2837 demodulator, but previous version with Panasonic MN88473 demod) and wants to test the DVB-T2 part (I cannot test DVB-T2, only DVB-T, because In Italy DVB-T2 will be in 2023), he has to install the "MN88473" driver from OpenATV feeds, because OpenPLI feeds there isn't kernel and right firmwares... But if WanWizard wants, I can attach to this post all the packages I extracted from OpenATV feeds that are necessaries (in addition to the ordinary "RTL2832" driver), so the developers can add to the OpenPLI feeds directly...
After installed those packages, with the usb device inserted and system restarted, you have to do the following commands to switch and to have the "DVB-T2/DVB-C" part of RTL2832P working:
 

init 4
mv /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend2 /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend3
mv /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend2
init 3

ATTENTION! This code in my test is valid only for OpenPLI 8.2, in my decoder.

In OpenATV 6.4/7.0, to get the DVB-T2 part working, instead, you have to do this code:
 

init 4
mv /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0 /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend8
mv /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend1 /dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0
init 3

After that, you can test if it finds DVB-T2 channels ;)

 

And if you want to permanently add this code to your system to have automatic recognition DVB-T2, simply add the code (without the "init 4" and "init 3" options) to "enigma2_pre_start.sh" file ;)

Hello orator89,
I have the same USB receiver.
Even though I installed the drivers, it doesn't work at all.
"enigma2_pre_start.sh"
Is there any chance you can send me this file? I don't quite understand the edit.
But I can send via FTP
I would be happy if you help me
