I have been playing around with XBMC/Kodi for years on a micro computer intended for use in a bedroom as an HTPC. It has a TBS DVB-T2 card for live TV and I have always struggled to get the drivers loaded or had to use one of the pre-compiled solutions that various heroes have offered. In short it h...

I am trying to set tvheadend in the MOI to record onto my NAS. I am accessing tvheadend via the Chrome browser on a Windows machine (all on the same network). I am currently entering the path: /mnt/MitchNAS/XBMC/TV_Recordings which refers to a NFS (linux) shared folder on the NAS. What is really per...

Does the MOI box follow the Sat-IP protocol? I am trying to connect to DVBViewer which needs this standard.

I have had a long running problem with this card. About 1-2 times out of 10 it does not initialise correctly and I get excessive error rates, usually unusable. This is of course a disaster for scheduled recordings. I use DVBViewer. I have tried all the supposed cures I could find on this and other f...

I have a 6981 in a Win7/64bit system, using DVBViewer both live and with the Recording Service. It is a dedicated HTPC so spends most of its life 'asleep'. About 1 in 10 times that the 6981 card is used, it shows a bad signal. Not completely gone but very very poor so error rate is unusable. In the ...

Halleluyah! Thanks Colin - that did the trick and at last I have my card recognised. By the way - I also ignored the update software when I first ran MythBuntu 11.10 which had previously generated errors. Now I have the rather ominous looking task of setting up MythTV - but that as they say is for a...

Well nobody can say I haven't tried! I have now run the process with a new installation of full version of Ubuntu 11.10 with same result as above. I have now also just tried with a new installation of Fedora 16 which doesn't get far down the 'make' scripts before complaining of missing files in the ...

just tried running the 'make' stage again and studied the console log. At 'stage 2' it comes up with a bunch of WARNINGs, including the line: WARNING: could not find /home/perry/Downloads/Drivers/linux-tbs-drivers/v4l/.tbs62x0fe_driver.o.cmd for /home/perry/Downloads/Drivers/linux-tbs-drivers/v4l/tb...

OK - had another go with a clean install of MythBuntu 11.10. Everything appears to go as expected and I get the correct info as above to 'lstpci -v' but the response to 'dmesg | grep DVB' is simply: [ 6.960210] DVB: registering new adapter (SAA716x dvb adapter) and I once again can find nothing in t...

Thanks for that Begall. I think I have tried most of this before but I'll try again. One of the things I found most confusing is what directory I need to be in at the start? (and does it matter anyways!) The Tbs notes say that it has to be the 'root' directory but is that '/' or '/root' - it seems b...
