==Driver and firmware==
==Driver and firmware==
*See [[DVBSky]] wiki page. Execute build_{x86|x64}_dvbc.sh for DVB-C driver!
*Firmware: dvb-fe-ds3103.fw


* 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.
==Making it Work==
* And for version 3: dvb-demod-m88ds3103.fw, dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
As of October 2013 it is not working with Kubuntu 13.10 and the media_build_bst_130806 Drivers from DVBSky according DVB-C.
* 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 ==
The driver is loading and detecting the card, but more then a successful channel scan isn't possible.


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



Cable Working for Ubuntu 12.04

Jan 2014
Upgraded Ubuntu 12.04 to kernel 3.11.1
and used the '''media_build_bst_130806''' from dvbsky support
compiled it as in the manual .
Cable driver loaded and tested, works fine with tvheadend and XBMC.
i use oscam and smargo for encrypted channels.
more info pe63@quicknet.nl

will test it with Ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10

Update 25jan2014

UPDATE Febr 2014<br/>
with newest drivers http://www.dvbsky.net/download/linux/media_build-bst-140128.tar.gz

Ubuntu 13.10 kernel 3.13.2 it compiles good and after<br/>
sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/<br/>
sudo make install<br/>
It loads alright, i asume all lower versions wil work too<br/>

==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.
