Problem mit tvheadend und Hauppauge Wintv-Quad

Added by Kai-Uwe Surkamp almost 8 years ago

Hallo Forum,

ich verzweifle seit 3 Wochenenden daran mein W7MCE auf Ubuntu mit tvheadend und Kodi umzustellen.
Ich nutze aktuell W7MCE am Fernseher als Medienbereitsteller und VDR für DVB-T. Da ja DVB-T bald abgeschaltet wird und ich über den Vermieter Kabelfernsehen zur Verfügung habe, wollte ich nach dem Fernseher auch mein MCE auf Kabel umstellen, aber MS + DVB-C = Mist (funktioniert nur mit US-Kabel). Da ich am ZweitTV einen Raspberry mit Openelec habe, möchte ich komlett auf Kodi umstellen, incl. zentraler DB. Leider will tvheadend nicht mit meiner TV-Karte zusammen arbeiten.

Problem:
- Nach Installation Ubuntu 16.04.1 auf leerer HDD = Linux version 4.4.0-31-generic werden im dmesg Fehler der Hauppauge angezeigt, da kein passender Treiber vorhanden ist.
- Nach apt-get update und apt-get dist-upgrade bin ich bei Linux version 4.4.0-59-generic, dmesg hat sich nicht geändert.
- Da die Hauppauge erst ab Kernel 4.8 unstützt wird habe ich diesen Kernel installiert: Linux version 4.8.0-040800-generic dmesg meckert nicht mehr. Soweit so gut.
- Repository für tvheadend hinzugefügt und apt-get install tvheadend
- dmesg:

[  471.687598] si2168 9-0066: Direct firmware load for dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw failed with error -2
[  471.687634] si2168 9-0066: Direct firmware load for dvb-demod-si2168-02.fw failed with error -2
[  471.687635] si2168 9-0066: firmware file 'dvb-demod-si2168-02.fw' not found
- Firmware dvb-demod-si2168-02.fw / dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw nach /lib/firmware kopiert und Rechte mit chmod nach Vorgabe der anderen Dateien angepasst

dmesg:

- Dieses ändert sich auch nach Reboot nicht, ebenso mit Kernel 4.9.5 bleiben die Fehlermeldungen.

Meine Suche nach "firmware download faile -22" ergab leider keine Informationen die ich umsetzen konnte.

Ich hoffe hier auf eine Lösung, zumindestens auf Lösungsansätze.
Da ich nich sattelfest in Linux bin bitte ich um etwas detailiertere Anweisungen und hoffe dass mir dieses altersbedingt zugestanden wird.

Gruß
Kai-Uwe

I used google translate to understand this..

EDIT: I missed the bit about you already coping the firmware files. Make sure the files are correct don't contain a webpage source!

~~By the looks of things you're missing firmware files that need to be placed in /lib/firmware~~. You can find them here. http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/

The latest b40 firmware is available directly here: http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/Si2168/Si2168-B40/4.0.25/

Hope this helps.

Hello Mark,

thanks for the link. I took the firmware from openelec and got the error. With your posted firmware there ist no error in dmesg an tvheadend starts to get the muxes.
Please excuse, that i wrote in german and forgot to post an translated version of my problem.

thanks a lot
Kai-Uwe

Glad you got it working

If you got them from openelec's git you need to click the filename and then press the download button.

It's no problem, it's your mother tongue.

firmwares from different sources respond to different hardware version of tuners.
Testing always helping.

If I write to my mother language no one will answer there is less then five members with use it ;)
that's why people use google/bing translate.

This is very true, the 4.0.19 version of the b40 firmware failed on both of my T2 sticks, the .11 worked fine but caused a few issues, the .25 version works perfectly fine though.

Testing always helping.

If it's easier then why not? Translations aren't great but they're generally understandable!

"scan no data, failed" means that nothing was found on that frequency. You need to make sure that you're entering all the details correctly - especially Symbol rate, you sometimes need to add three additional zeros to it. Use w_scan to determine the available frequencies, you usually only need one, tvheadend should find the rest if your provider uses NIT.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your reply.
I having this from w_scan:

Info: using DVB adapter auto detection.
main:3904: FATAL: * NO USEABLE CABLE CARD FOUND. *
Please check wether dvb driver is loaded and
verify that no dvb application (i.e. vdr) is running.

but how it's possible I have no usable cable card? On dmesg I can see the tuner card,
I see it on tvheadend as well. I placed the b40 firmware and I upgraded the kernel to 4.93
I tried to change the values and scan, and I checked the correct values on the TV provider's website.

Sorry if I make fatal mistake, unfortunately Im not linux expert...
