===Errors and troubleshooting===

* '''Bad platform for compiling'''

make[3]: *** No rule to make target `tbs8921ctrl.o', needed by `v4l/media.o'. Stop.

Did you select the correct platform in step 5 above?

* '''More than 2 TV card'''

* '''Missing C header files installed for your Linux kernel version'''

During compilation:
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `.myconfig', needed by `config-compat.h'. Stop.

Make sure you have the right C header files installed for your Linux kernel version.

* '''Missing /dev/dvb directory'''

Some weeks later your /dev/dvb directory has disappeared?

Perhaps your kernel was updated, and your machine rebooted.

The driver needs to be recompiled.

If you just run make, it will try to compile against the old kernel headers, so first run

make distclean
Then go back to step 6.

* '''After rebooting, "Unknown symbol" error'''

disagrees about version of symbol dvb_frontend_detach http://www.tbsdtv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=8195

===Re-installing after a kernel upgrade===

* cd to the linux-tbs-drivers directory that was created in the Making it Work section above.
* Clean out the previously built objects
make distclean
* Choose 32bit or 64bit for our drivers again.
** ./v4l/tbs-x86.sh for 32bit
** ./v4l/tbs-x86_r3.sh for 32bit running kernel 3.x
** ./v4l/tbs-x86_64.sh for 64bit.

* Build and install the modules
make -j3
sudo make install
* Reboot your machine or manually remove and reload the appropriate modules (see above).

Latest revision as of 16:50, 14 May 2016

A dual DVB-T/DVB-T2 PCIe card from TurboSight.

The manufacturer officially supports Linux, and there is on-going development of their driver, although it is supplied as a binary blob.

There is also an open source driver for TBS 6280 developed by Luis Alves.

Overview/Features

  • PCI-e x1
  • Dual Tuner DVB-T/DVB-T2 card
  • RF antenna pass-through
  • IR Receiver
  • Remote Controller

Components Used

  • NXP SAA7160ET (PCI Express Based Audio And Video Bridge), driver is NOT included in linux kernel, you must compile a closed (proprietary) or open source driver above to use your TBS6280 card
  • NXP (TDA) 18212/M (alias TDA18212HN with master) (Silicon Tuner for terrestrial and cable digital TV reception) X2, (driver included in linux kernel >= 3.0)
  • SONY CXD2820R (demodulator LSI for "DVB-T2", compatible with three standards ("DVB-T2", "DVB-T" and "DVB-C") X2, (driver included in linux kernel >= 3.0)

Identification

Note : "Capabilities" information are only show if you use the root account, else you will have "Capabilities: <access denied>".

With working driver:

# lspci -v | grep --after-context=10 7160
04:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7160 (rev 03)
       Subsystem: Device 6280:0011
       Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18
       Memory at e0300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
       Capabilities: [40] MSI: Enable- Count=1/32 Maskable- 64bit+
       Capabilities: [50] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
       Capabilities: [74] Power Management version 2
       Capabilities: [80] Vendor Specific Information: Len=50 <?>
       Capabilities: [100] Vendor Specific Information: ID=0000 Rev=0 Len=088 <?>
       Kernel driver in use: SAA716x TBS

If the driver is NOT yet installed or loaded, then output will instead be

# lspci -v | grep --after-context=10 7160
02:00.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors Device 7160 (rev 03)
       Subsystem: Device 6280:0001
       Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 18
       Memory at e0300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=1M]
       Capabilities: [40] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/5 Enable-
       Capabilities: [50] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
       Capabilities: [74] Power Management version 2
       Capabilities: [80] Vendor Specific Information <?>
       Capabilities: [100] Vendor Specific Information <?>

The final line with "Kernel driver in use:" is missing because NO driver is loaded.

With lspci -vvvnn (and working drivers):

Check that your tuner card works

1.Check that linux tool can find TV channels

If the file for terrestrial transmitters in your town is not in the /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t folder, then you can find file in scan-s2/dvb-t folder in the scan-s2.tar.bz2 that is in the tbs-linux-drivers_vRELEASE_NUMBER.zip file.
A list, not up to date, for french users is available here : doc.ubuntu-fr.org/tnt_frequences.
