Hi Guys!

I'm new to Tvheadend.

Yesterday I installed a clean version of XBMCbuntu.
And now i want to test Tvheadend.
But it seems that there is a problem with my Digital Devices Cine S2 V5 Card.

I dont know what the problem is, so I hope you can help me.

I logged in under localhost:9981 -> configuration -> DVB Inputs -> TV Adapters and want so select my card. But the list is empty

Code:

dmesg | grep -i dvb
[   10.154329] ngene: Found Linux4Media cineS2 DVB-S2 Twin Tuner (v5)

Code:

lspci | grep -i multimedia
02:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Micronas Semiconductor Holding AG nGene PCI-Express Multimedia Controller (rev 01)

any suggestions?

Thanks
Owel

you installed drivers?

[Owel]

Can you tell me how?

I thought that they are already included and it would work out of the box.

[Owel]

/dev /dvb is also missing

[Prof Yaffle]

This?

Either that or the same firmware file (ngene_15.fw) seems to be in the firmware package for Ubuntu, so try sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree (or just check to see if /lib/firmware/ngene_15.fw exists to see if it's already on your system).

[Owel]

That does not work.

I tried to download firmware 15 as mentioned in the link, but i get a 404 error. So i tried firmware 18. Download was successfull.
Next step was to install the driver, but this failed with:

More tips?

[Prof Yaffle]

Maybe let's not leap to rebuild v4l-dvb - you may have a good enough version already - let's nail the firmware first (plus I'm going to be no use with those compilation errors).

Try copying the ngene_18.fw file to /lib/firmware and rebooting; you can also still try grabbing the overall firmware from the linux-firmware-nonfree package,since I can't immediately tell if they're different versions for different cards or just successive versions. Make sure the permissions match the other .fw files.

This is most probably a case of missing firmware files. I had the same problem with an Afatech 9015. Try to track down the correct firmware file and add it to /lib/firmware.

I'm using the same card (DVB-C version). After installing the drivers like i described on this page:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1268446
The card is working perfect!

[Owel]

I got it working now.
installed firmware 18 and did a reboot.
