A DVB-S2 USB 2.0 Device from Pinnacle.
It is currently unsupported.
Overview/Features
Evidently, as can be seen in the images, the silkscreen writting on the PCB indicate that this device is actually a TechnoTrend design.
Components Used
- STM STB6100 (tuner) [1]
- STM STB0899 (demodulator) [2]
- Cypress CY7C68013A (i.e. FX2) (USB bridge/controller) [3]
Identification
It has a USB ID: 2304:021f
Making it Work
What we know:
- it uses parts/all of the ttusb-USB-protocol
- isochronous Data transfer (whole TS only)
- no firmware is needed (budget device)
Drivers
The following drivers are needed for these devices:
- stb0899.ko - stb6100.ko - lnbp22.ko - dvb-usb.ko - dvb-usb-pctv452e.ko
To use this device you have to have a tuning application that uses the new DVB api. there's a patched version of szap available (search mailing list).
Make sure you haven't loaded any old dvb drivers. Here's a step by step howto:
hg clone http://www.jusst.de/hg/multiproto wget -O pctv452e.patch http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/attachments/20080125/b9e1d749/attachment-0001.patch cd multiproto patch -p1 < ../pctv452e.patch make ; # there might be a few warnings. cd v4l insmod dvb-core.ko insmod dvb-pll.ko insmod stb6100.ko verbose=0 insmod stb0899.ko verbose=0 insmod lnbp22.ko insmod dvb-usb.ko insmod dvb-usb-pctv452e.ko # in case some insmod complains about unresolved symbols: modprobe firmware_class
Driver Status
Working:
- Remote Control - LNB Power (13/18V) - 22kHz - DiSEqC - DVB-S - DVB-S2
