Description

Hi,

I'm having issues with tvheadend with Pinnacle PCTV 73e (DiBcom 7000PC), firmware dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw. I'm trying to run it on Raspberry Pi, I have cloned the latest compose from git. When scanning for services I'm getting errors

Running the same on my x86_64 machine works and tvheadend sees multiplexes. What information do you need from me in order to track the problem?

This is almost certainly a driver or firmware issue and not a tvh problem. As you pointed out tvh works fine with the same tuner in another machine.

I'd suggest contacting the driver author or the rpi guys.

I use a dual adapter on the PI and the problem is that the USB port does not deliver more than 147 mA. My dual tuner requires 210 mA minimum and does not work. You should probably use a powered USB hub and see if the problem persists.

Hi Eric,

thanks for the tip! I tried to connect the adapter behind a powered USB hub and it's working. :-)
