dvb sky -s952 and Ubuntu 16.04
Added by Nick Sillito over 8 years ago
Sorry if this is slightly off topic.
I have a sky-s952 (v3) card which has happily worked with tvheadend 4.0 for a while now on Ubuntu 14.04.
Last night I tried to install Ubuntu 16.04 (with kernel 4.4) and that seemed to go ok, except when I try to watch TV when I get the message "no free adaptors available".
I have compiled the drivers, installed the modules and copied the firmware as recomeneded, when I look in /dev/dvb I have the adaptor0 and adaptor1 directories ok, but no joy in watching TV.
If I use the scan command, I get the following errors:
ERROR: cannot parse'[CHANNEL]
'
ERROR: cannot parse' DELIVERY_SYSTEM = DVBS2
'
ERROR: cannot parse' FREQUENCY = 11719500
'
ERROR: cannot parse' POLARIZATION = HORIZONTAL
'
ERROR: cannot parse' SYMBOL_RATE = 29500000
'
ERROR: cannot parse' INNER_FEC = 3/4...
So I guess that this is a driver issue, not a tvheadend issue.
I'd just be keen to know if anyone's got this to work, and if so, how?
Thanks

Ok -- I don't know if I did something wrong the first time, or it was a benefit or updating to kernel 4.4.0-21-generic, but this now works fine now.
