T230 Data Errors

Added by Benjamin M. over 7 years ago

I have the Issue that I get many Data Errors on a Tvheadend Setup with an Orangepi One. I'm using the T230 Tuner (Si2168). Any idea?

Unfortunately this is quite common with these tuners. I see it on my HP Microserver & kirkwood (armel) NAS (I have three Si21** tuners). From what I've noticed it throws a lot of errors on first tune but is fine afterwards. Some firmware revisions seem to be prone to causing it too. I'm currently using 4.0.25 & rarely see it now, but it was really bad using 4.0.4 / 4.0.11.

Where to get 4.0.25 from?

EDIT:
Now downloaded the demod + tuner Firmware from http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/Si2168/Si2168-B40/4.0.25/
Let's see if it get's better :)

Is power save enabled in Tvheadend?

RE: T230 Data Errors - Added by Benjamin M. over 7 years ago

Power saving is off.

Try increasing the tune repeats see if that helps.

Tried to set the tune repeats from 0 to 2. But still same issues with having like 959068 Errors on a ~1h recording. Strangly this doesn't happen on every recording.
