TBS6290 does not find DVB-T2 channels

[pstumbler]

Hi,

my recently purchased TBS6290 does not find any DVB-T2 channels under Linux Ubuntu.
When I put it into my Windows7 machine it works correctly and finds all my T and T2 channels with DVBViewer. Also descambling the scrambled channels with the CI works fine.

My Linux system:

pstumbler@SERVER:~$ uname -a

I use the latest TBS drivers "tbs-linux-drivers_v151105.zip" which are installed correctly - see my other post: http://www.tbsdtv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=169&t=9621

Done.


The channels found are all in DVB-T and on transponder 514 MHZ. All others which are found by WIndows the Linux system cannot tune to...
Also the program tells me all the time "Using DVB-T" - but the channels are T2!

Thanks

Thanks crazycat - but no success.
The actual program delivered with the TBS media build does not support using "T2" at the beginning of the line (ony "S", "S1", "S2").

I changed the source a little bit to use only T2 but still no channels.

Do you know any scanning or tuning program under linux, which supports T2?
I tried dvbv5-scan, dvbv5-zap, w_scan and - of course - the scan-s2 and szap-s2 but doesn't work...

Will there be a newer driver from TBS which will support the newer MEDIA API 5.10 - because the 5.3 is rather old.
Is there any BETA version in development which can be testet for T2?

Thanks!
