Description

I needed to hack src/input/mpegts/linuxdvb/linuxdvb_adapter.c, before the DVB-C port is visible:
static dvb_fe_type_t
linux_dvb_get_type(int linux_type) {
switch (linux_type) {
case FE_QPSK:
return DVB_TYPE_C;
case FE_QAM:
return DVB_TYPE_C;
case FE_OFDM:
return DVB_TYPE_C;
case FE_ATSC:
return DVB_TYPE_ATSC;
default:
return DVB_TYPE_C;
}
}

Result:

Have you checked http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-5500 ?
Seems the card is not fully supported?

Yeah, but on the other hand it states: "Not fully supported (May 2014). Patch from Zzam for si2165 chip, DVB-C works."
I tried almost everything, but it seems not related to Tvheadend, but it seems that the port isn't detect (correctly).

  • Status changed from New to Invalid

It seems that the DVB-C patch is missing in the kernel driver:

[ 19.637212] i2c i2c-10: si2165: DVB-C is not yet supported.

Marking as invalid - not a tvh bug...

I have patched the driver, thanks to ZZram who's doing a great job mainting this driver. :)

Everytime TVHeadend scans, it keeps throwing errors to my dmesg:
cx23885 0000:01:00.0: DVB: adapter 1 frontend 0 frequency 0 out of range (45000000..864000000)

If I'm using w_scan it works without any problems, and the services can be found.
