Here is RC15a with media tree support.  Per Kid Castro's previous post, I have not placed either the dvbhdhomerun or userhdhomerun files in their necessary locations, so you'll need to put them in /boot/custom and copy them over with these lines in the go script:

 

ln -s /boot/custom/dvbhdhomerun /etc/dvbhdhomerun
ln -s /boot/custom/userhdhomerun /usr/bin/userhdhomerun
modprobe dvb_hdhomerun && sleep 10 && /usr/bin/userhdhomerun &

sleep 20 && sudo -u root tvheadend -c /mnt/cache/unraid/tvheadend -u root -g video -f 2>&1 >/dev/null

 

I know Kid Castro mentioned having issues with my build of userhdhomerun, so if you have similar issues, I'd recommend trying the files he attached to his post up above...

 

You can get all the files here:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/a0z60nda9xijh7t/Unraid_5.0_RC15a_media_hdhr.zip

Did you update your script to compile v0.15 of userhdhomerun? I didn't pay too much attention either to see if there were tuner settings compiled in, although I used someone elses in the past and it worked fine. There was also an update a month or so back for the firmware right from SiliconDust.

I use the following in my script to get the dvbhdhomerun and firmware files:

 

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/dvbhdhomerun co -P dvbhdhomerun

and

wget http://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun_20130413beta1.tgz

 

There is a new firmware from SiliconDust:

wget http://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun_20130328.tgz

Edit: I need to learn, yeah, you are using the absolute latest.

 

It does look like it will just grab the latest of dvbhdhomerun.

 

Thanks so much for doing this, things have been crazy opening our new power plant.

Works amazing, no issues at all... if you can build it like this, no one should have an issue at all.

 

Thanks alot botez 

 

Love having TV anywhere around my house, if only I could get a client working for my iphone and iPad.. anyone done that?

check this one

 

https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/moi-player/id649376665?mt=8

 

This is for MOI from TBS (but MOI use Tvheadend )

I had visited this thread early on and was successful with Tvheadend and unRaid for all of my unencrypted channels but didn't have any luck with encrypted copy-freely channels.  I use Comcast CableCard with HDHomerun Prime, are all of the channels available with the latest efforts?

 

Thanks!

Can't get this to recognise my Leadtek winfast gold dongle.

It keeps saying

 

MEDIA tree: DETECTED

DVB tuner: NOT DETECTED

There is no DVB-S/S2, DVB-T or DVB-C tuner in your system.

Tvheadend login/password: ACCEPTED

 

Whenever I plug in the dongle I get this through unmenu

Please read the thread or at least search it. You are not supposed to install the plg file from the first page. Instructions are here: https://github.com/spylex/tvheadend_unraid

 

This might be a problem of firmwares. Hey botez, did you install any firmware files in your build? TVheadend does not pick up my DVB-T stick either... Can I just copy the firmware files to /lib/firmware with a line in the go script or wont that work?

No, I did install any other firmwares when I built this.  If the firmware is available via the kernel menu config, then I'd be happy to include it and rebuild.  Can people let me know which of those they'd like to have included?

 

If the firmware cannot be easily added from the kernel config, then you'll need to either compile it yourself or get a pre-compiled version of it and link to it in the go script.

I've gone through the thread a few times,  I updated my plg to use the lates txz file, i'm comfortable installing it manually too, thats not the issue.  It's figuring out how to get the system to identify the dongle, apparently the dongle was natively supported in the kernel for a while.  Not sure on how to compile the firmware into the bz files, but using botez's hdhomerun bz files that's probably why it doesn't work.

 

Cheers.

Hi Botez

 

Thanks for your Media Tree builds.. My TV tuner firmware doesnt seem included in your build, its a WinTV Nova-T USB, which uses the dib7000 firmware, which I believe a lot of cheaper USB tuners use. Would it be possible to include it in your next build please?

 

Many Thanks!

 

On a separate note, anybody think its worth petitioning Tom to produce a media enabled build when he does v5 final? Just a thought as Add-ons for unRAID are becoming more and more popular!

here is latest version rc15a (media tree + TBS drivers + FW)

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/49442039/unraid_rc15a.zip

As always piotrasd, Thank You!

 

give me feedback if works

give me feedback if works

 

Will do, using my server at the minute, so cant install and restart just yet, but give me an hour or so and I'll let you know!

 

Just out of interest do you manually re-compile the kernel, or do you have a script?

 

UPDATE: Works perfectly Thank You!

Works for me using a TBS 6284, Thanks very much.

piotrasd works perfectly thank you!

for Hdhomerun users i think this is usefull patches

 

https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/tree/master/packages/linux-drivers/dvbhdhomerun/patches

like auto detec Tuner

Thanks piostrad! finally got my dvb tuner recognised with your BZ files.

 

Cheers!

I just bought a Terratec Cinergy S2 PCIe Dual, which is a clone of the tevii s480, altough it uses a different USB ID.

https://tvheadend.org/boards/5/topics/8884?r=8901#message-8901

 

This card is apparently just a USB host controller and two tevii S660 tuners.

http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TeVii_S480

 

Is there any way I can force unraid to load the tevii driver for my terratec card?

At first many thanks to piotrasd who made the DVBSky T9580 work with RC15a.

The card has a combined T/C tuner, which tvheadend doesn't like, so you have to choose your poison.

For me it is cable: dvb-fe-tool --adapter=1 --frontend=0 --set-delsys=DVB-C

 

After that it works perfectly. If you have more cards, you have to do this for each card (adapter: 1,3,5,..). (The even adapter nnumbers are the DVB-S tuners for this card).

 

So much for documentation for all those out there who struggled with this card.

 

---

 

Now I have heard that tvheadend is easy to set up but VDR is more stable and flexible.

 

@piotrasd: Since you have used both on unraid, VDR and tvheadend, could you summarize your experience and contrast both solutions against each other?

 

Also I am very curious how to install VDR on unraid (piotrasd has made the necessary packages available, but I don't know how to use them).

 

Thanks for caring,

JC

Hi there!!

 

For those of us NOT using satellite cards, will these new kernel builds still support ATSC over-the-air tuners?

 

Probably a stupid question, but I just wanted to know

 

Hopefully there's a rc16b hack in the near future...

I only use OTA on my HD Home Run, it works just fine for me, I am also in North America so its ATSC.

I don't use an HD Homerun device though, I have two PCI OTA cards that worked with the rc8a TVHE mod.
