Adding support to HDHomerun for ISDB-T

Added by Daniel Bittencourt about 4 years ago

There is a new HDHomeRun that supports ISDB-T, the HDHR4-2IS (https://info.hdhomerun.com/info/connect4) and I'm trying to make it work with TVHeadend as there was no provision for ISDB-T HDHomeRun devices before.

I'm mostly done in adding support and it is working correctly, however, whenever my server restarts or the application is re-started I check that the HDHomeRun input reverts back to DVB-C. Thus I have to:

1- Navigate to Configuration -> DVB Inputs -> TV Adapters

2- When select my HDHomeRun Device and toggle between DVB-C and then back to ISDB-T

3- Re-Enable the tunner and then I'm able to select my ISDB-T Network. While the adapter reverted back to DVB-C, my ISDB-T network is not available to be selected.

I have uploaded my patch https://github.com/danielcbit/tvheadend/tree/hdhomerun

Can some one point me in the direction of what is missing to prevent this DVB Input to be lost upon service restart?

Thank you!

You should add your additions to the lists after the existing code. This is probably not related to the issue you are seeing but a requirement if you want to see it merged.

I know that, however the patch is not ready. So this is not yet ready to be sent as PR.

What I want to know is some guidance on what might be missing to finish the patch and avoid this behavior I'm seeing.

Thanks.

Hi!

I'm also using HDHomerun with ISDB-T and TVHeadend in Brazil.

Since there was no support for this model in TVHeadend, I'm using this as IPTV tuner, but it doesnt work perfect.

Did you have success to add native support for this model in TVHeadend?

BR,

Hi Fabio.

In my patch (https://github.com/danielcbit/tvheadend/tree/8b88d4168ecec7c5f83630657652b3ad396d54d2) I added most of the code and I can get my HDHomerun with ISDB-T to work with TV Headend just fine. However, I'm having some issues in storing the Input Configuration as it reverts back to DVB-C after the service is re-started.

I haven't submitted this as a merge as I need to clean up the code and fix this issue. If you have any tips, it would be really welcoming.

The commit is now merged in the tvheadend mainline. You just need to fetch the latest version and make sure to build it with support for HDHomerun devices and it should pickup the HDHR4-2IS in your network.
