Your card requires this firmware I was pulling the firmware direct from TBS not from either of the above links, but when I compared the md5 on the version I was using, it was the "Windows" version, now I've replaced it with the "Linux" version. Strangely enough I was getting the firmware from a TBS download that was for Linux firmware and all the other firmware in the pack works fine. I've altered my script now to use the "Linux" version of the firmware. See here. Fantastic! Well done, and thank you. Link to comment
fireplex Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 (edited) Hi, I was running 6.3.5 with the official TBS DVB drivers with no issues (TBS 6285 tuner). I upgraded to 6.4.0 and then only had 2 options for TBS drivers, open source or crazycat. So I tried opensource but that driver does not work with any DVB-T2 (high definition) channels, it fails to find them or tune to them (I am using SageTV). So, I tried crazycat and the same issue :-( I backed out back to 6.3.5 and all working OK again. Can we get the official TBS DVB drivers that were in 6.3.5 as an option with unraid 6.4.0 ? Thanks!

Thanks!No as I explained a while back, TBS have stopped developing the old drivers, and they won't compile on the more recent kernels.When you switch to the open source drivers, I had to re-install TVH to get everything working correctly.Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk Link to comment
fireplex Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 OK, any idea why DVB-T channels work OK and it's just the DVB-T2 (HD) channels that won't work ? Seems a bit strange. Where should I log an issue ? Link to comment
Rick Gillyon Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 What cards do you have? Are you tuning directly in Sage or using a backend? Link to comment

Where should I log an issue ?Difficult to log an issue without a bit more info. Might be helpful to get some tvh logs when trying to tune/play and a screenshot of the DVB plugin screen would be useful.Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk Link to comment

Guess I could look at that but no experience as use sagetv, dvb plugin screen a bit broke now after downgrading so driver not reported but it reports the card tuners fine. Will investigate Linux commands to run a channel scan.Guess otherwise will have to switch back to PCI passthrough and Windows Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Link to comment
Rick Gillyon Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Don't do that, set up tvhe and opendct Dockers to use with the sagetv docker. Works perfectly. Link to comment

See screen: OK, had another look at this, turns out the fix I implemented didn't work as the instructions aren't quite right on the TBS site. I've filed an issue with them and implemented a different way of achieving the same goal. Once that's finished compiling, I'll upload a new TBS build and post back here. Link to comment
CHBMB Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 OK @w^w Updated v6.4.0 build uploaded. Can you try again please? Link to comment
w^w Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) Downloaded from DVB plugin and tested. Unfortunatelly, problem still exist - this happened on my new unRAID build. BUT I tested it on my an old unRAID build and everything is OK. All 4 DVB adapters are listed on DVB plugin with 6.4.0 unRAID DVB version. Edited January 17, 2018 by w^w update Link to comment

CHBMB thanks. Everything is clear now. In my new unRAID build I have ASUS P10S-M WS mobo which have PCI-E Gen3 and doesn't have Gen1 support so there is no way to detect my old TBS6984 PCI-E Gen1 card Link to comment

There is something like "asus dmi max link speed" which have default value setted to AUTO. But when I change it to Gen1 my card is still not detected. Link to comment

saarg Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 It's the ASPM option. It looks like it's in PEG port configuration and also one called DMI Link ASPM control in DMI/OPI configuration Link to comment
