TBS6981 and PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX)- HELP

[telemako]

I am working on both the PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX) RTL2832U based chip and the TBS6981 DVB PCIe card. I am using the v4l-dvb driver files

for the LV32TDLX, and last driver version for the TBS6981.
When I install the driver for TBS6981 is responding and LV32TDLX not working, but when I install the driver for LV32TDLX is responding and TBS6981

not work.
I don't know if the make install for one unit is killing the other one.

I'm working through the make/config system to understand how this all works, so I can build the needed modules without overwriting something

important

I'm in need of help from someone .
Thanks!

Thanks for your help, but that's not the problem:
The problem is that when I install the driver for TBS 6181, this overwrites the driver of the PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX).
Help me make a driver with only selected with linux makeconfig TBS 6981 compilation, not Overwriting PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX) driver already installed.
Please help to build it.

[cody]

please, point me out to where you get the Linux driver for that "PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX)" card and so i can see what has to be done for merging the drivers.

Hi, this is the driver link I use to PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX) is a pci card based on chip RTL 2832U:

http://www.turnovfree.net/ stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/091207_RTL2832U_LINUX_Ver1.4.2.rar


This is the process to make:

unrar x 091207_RTL2832U_Linux_Ver1.4.2.rar
cd linux_install_package_091207
tar -vjxf v4l_rtl2832_install.tar.bz2
cd v4l-dvb-e0cd9a337600
make distclean
make clean
sudo make
sudo make install

lsmod | grep dvb
dvb_usb_rtl2832u 147072 0
dvb_usb 21388 1 dvb_usb_rtl2832u
dvb_core 99732 1 dvb_usb



When I install the dirver for the TBS6981 RTL2832U not work.
or vice versa

Would it be possible to install a single driver for both cards and TBS6981 RTL2832U?

Thank you very much for your help.



when I install the dirver for the RTL2832U, TBS6981 not work.

Would it be possible to install a single driver for both cards,the TBS6981 and RTL2832U?

Thank you very much for your help.

i understand the problem, but it depends on "PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX)" drivers - i will try to merge TBS 6981 driver to them and teach you how to do it, but you will need to wait several days until i looked at it.

[cody]

this is the driver link I use to PCI DUAL DVB-T DELUXE (LV32TDLX) is a pci card based on chip RTL 2832U:

http://www.turnovfree.net/ stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/091207_RTL2832U_LINUX_Ver1.4.2.rar

this link is not working for me?! [EDIT] i found the correct one:

"http://www.turnovfree.net/~stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/091207_RTL2832U_LINUX_Ver1.4.2.rar"

[telemako]

Cody Thanks for your help, I hope your news.

I add link with a similar problem to read.

[cody]

ok, i look at it and driver package for your other device here:

"http://www.turnovfree.net/~stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/091207_RTL2832U_LINUX_Ver1.4.2.rar"

is about 1 years old and thus it's better to teach you how to merge it to the Linux driver package for TBS 6981, which is always up-to-date.

here are the instructions how to do it:

1. get Linux driver package for TBS 6981 from here:

https://shop.tbsdtv.com/download2/TBS6981 ... 1.92.2.rar

2. after you have run:

# tar xjvf linux-s2api-tbs6981.tar.bz2

as the "README" file inside "linux-s2api-tbs6981_v1.92.2.rar" instructs do the following - get driver source code files "rtl2832u_files.tar.bz2" for your other device from here:

File name: rtl2832u_files.tar.bz2 File size: 111.11 KB

all those files i got from the package here:

"http://www.turnovfree.net/~stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/091207_RTL2832U_LINUX_Ver1.4.2.rar"

3. again, as the "README" file inside "linux-s2api-tbs6981_v1.92.2.rar" instructs:

# cd linux-s2api-tbs6981

4. copy "rtl2832u_files.tar.bz2" to "linux-s2api-tbs6981" directory:

# cp /path_to/rtl2832u_files.tar.bz2 ./

5. extract "rtl2832u_files.tar.bz2" archive, which also will place the files inside it in the proper directories under "linux-s2api-tbs6981" directory:

# tar xjvf rtl2832u_files.tar.bz2

6. open in your favorite text editor in Linux file:

./linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/Makefile

and add somewhere to it:

Code: Select All Code

dvb-usb-rtl2832u-objs = demod_rtl2832.o dvbt_demod_base.o dvbt_nim_base.o foundation.o math_mpi.o nim_rtl2832_mxl5007t.o nim_rtl2832_fc2580.o nim_rtl2832_mt2266.o rtl2832u.o rtl2832u_fe.o rtl2832u_io.o tuner_mxl5007t.o tuner_fc2580.o tuner_mt2266.o tuner_tua9001.o nim_rtl2832_tua9001.o tuner_fc0012.o nim_rtl2832_fc0012.o demod_rtl2836.o dtmb_demod_base.o dtmb_nim_base.o nim_rtl2836_fc2580.o nim_rtl2836_mxl5007t.o tuner_e4000.o nim_rtl2832_e4000.o
obj-$(CONFIG_DVB_USB_RTL2832U) += dvb-usb-rtl2832u.o

7. open in your favorite text editor in Linux file:

./linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/Kconfig

and add somewhere to it:

Code: Select All Code

config DVB_USB_RTL2832U
        tristate "Realtek RTL2832U DVB-T USB2.0 support"
        depends on DVB_USB
        help
          Realtek RTL2832U DVB-T driver.

8. that's all you have to do and just follow the "README" file inside "linux-s2api-tbs6981_v1.92.2.rar" to build and install TBS 6981 driver package, which now includes the driver for your other device too.

Hi, Cody I tested and works fine.

Thank you very much for your support....
