A DVB-S2 USB 2.0 Device from TechnoTrend.

It is currently unsupported, but experimental support has been attempted.

Overview/Features

This is a USB 2.0 device capable of receiving DVB-S and DVB-S2 tranponders.
Upon connection to the USB port, the devices' LED is orange and turns green upon module load.
The USB receiver comes with a black RC5 remote control. IR events can be read from /dev/input/eventX


Components Used

  • Cypress CY7C68013A USB controller [1]
  • STM STB0899 (demodulator) [2]
  • STM STB6100 (tuner) [3]
  • STM LNBP22 (LNB voltage regulator) [4]
  • STM M24C64 (EEPROM containing USB controller firmware, MAC address) [5]

Identification

Vendor ID: 0B48
Product ID: 300A

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
 - ttpci-eeprom.ko
 - dvb-usb.ko
 - dvb-usb-pctv452e.ko

To use this device you have to have a tuning application that uses the new S2API or multiproto 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:


S2API

mkdir 3650
cd 3650
hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin
cd s2-liplianin
make ; # there might be a few warnings.
cd v4l
insmod dvb-core.ko
insmod stb6100.ko verbose=0
insmod stb0899.ko verbose=0
insmod lnbp22.ko
insmod ttpci-eeprom.ko
insmod dvb-usb.ko
insmod dvb-usb-pctv452e.ko

Multiproto

mkdir 3650
cd 3650
hg clone -r 9036 http://jusst.de/hg/multiproto
# Note these are patches against multiproto changeset 9036
wget http://hem.passagen.se/faruks/3650/pctv452e.txt
patch -p0 < pctv452e.txt
# Support for Common Interface, MAC address readout
wget http://zapping.sf.net/pctv452e-ci-mac.patch
patch -p0 < pctv452e-ci-mac.patch
cd multiproto
make ; # there might be a few warnings.
cd v4l
insmod dvb-core.ko
insmod stb6100.ko verbose=0
insmod stb0899.ko verbose=0
insmod lnbp22.ko
insmod ttpci-eeprom.ko
insmod dvb-usb.ko
insmod dvb-usb-pctv452e.ko
# If you use 32-bit system and insmod complains about: error inserting 'stb0899.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module.
