=== Drivers ===
==Driver and firmware==


* Following firmware files are needed for version 1: dvb-demod-m88ds3103.fw, dvb-demod-si2168-a30-01.fw and dvb-tuner-si2158-a20-01.fw.
There is no open source driver in mainline kernel for this card.
* And for version 3: dvb-demod-m88ds3103.fw, dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
But Linux drivers can be downloaded from the DVBSky support website.
* All can be found from OpenELEC firmware tree [https://github.com/OpenELEC/dvb-firmware/tree/master/firmware].
* As an alternative, you can get the firmware from the producer's site: http://www.dvbsky.net/Support_linux.html
* Place the firmware files under /lib/firmware


==Making it Work ==
Most of the driver is open source, except the driver for the Si2168 chipset. This is only a proprietary closed source module called sit2.o and is shipping
for 32 Bit and 64 Bit Linux Kernels with and without DVB-C support.


The driver is included in Linux kernels since 3.18 (ver 1) and 3.19 (ver 3). For older kernels you can use the [[media_build]].
==Making it Work==
As of October 2013 it is not working with Kubuntu 13.10 and the media_build_bst_130806 Drivers from DVBSky according DVB-C.

The driver is loading and detecting the card, but more then a successful channel scan isn't possible.

No TV program can be watched.
DVB-S/DVB-S2 and DVB-T/DVB-T2 wasn't tested by me.

Working for Ubuntu 12.04 an 13.04

November 2013, made the patch working with some help from DVBDky support center

Sat driver loaded but not tested
Cable driver loaded and tested, works fine with tvheadend and XBMC

==DVBSky T9580 v3==
Today I test this card with both DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T in Timisoara - Romania (DVB-T signal from Hungary - Szentes). I try to receive DVB-T2 signal from Serbia (Avala or Crveni Cot) but I don't receive any signal, maybe card doesn't work with DVB-T2 or my antenna doesn't receive any signal.
This version uses a different kernel module - smipcie. Here's the dmesg output from a 4.3 kernel:
I use VDR 2.1.2 with streamdev as back-end and VLC to watch channels and work very well, both adapter. I try w_scan and work.


<pre>
I use latest driver from dvbsky website.

A combined DVB-T/DVB-T2 or DVB-C or DVB-S/DVB-S2 PCIe card from DVBSky.

The card is identical to Mystique SaTeCaBiX.

Overview/Features

  • PCI-e x1 low profile card (includes standard profile backplate)
  • Single Tuner for DVB-S/DVB-S2
  • Single Tuner for DVB-T/DVB-T2/DVB-C
  • IR Receiver
  • Remote Controller

Technical Details

  • Name: T9850/5950 Ver. 1.0a 121106
  • Bridge : Conexant PCIe A/V Decoder CX23885-15Z PFAC6621B 1249CN
  • DVB-T2/C demodulator : Si2168-A30
  • DVB-T2/C tuner : Si2158-A20
  • DVB-S2 demodulator : Montage M88DS3103
  • DVB-S2 tuner : Montage TS2022
  • PCI ID 4254:9580 (same for the Mystique card)


  • Name: T9850 Ver. 3 (there's no version 2)
  • Bridge : SMI PCIe
  • DVB-T2/C demodulator : Si2168-B40
  • DVB-T2/C tuner : Si2157-A30
  • DVB-S2 demodulator : Montage M88DS3103
  • DVB-S2 tuner : Montage TS2022
  • PCI ID 4254:5580



Driver and firmware

  • Following firmware files are needed for version 1: dvb-demod-m88ds3103.fw, dvb-demod-si2168-a30-01.fw and dvb-tuner-si2158-a20-01.fw.
  • And for version 3: dvb-demod-m88ds3103.fw, dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
  • All can be found from OpenELEC firmware tree [1].
  • As an alternative, you can get the firmware from the producer's site: http://www.dvbsky.net/Support_linux.html
  • Place the firmware files under /lib/firmware

Making it Work

The driver is included in Linux kernels since 3.18 (ver 1) and 3.19 (ver 3). For older kernels you can use the media_build.
