Is Raspberry Pi (ARM) supported?

[orekhovav]

Hello.
I use TBS6220 tuner under linux (with patches from CrazyCat for multiPLP support).
But i want USB DVB-T2 tuner for my Raspberry Pi. Is it possible?
Your MOI box just for DVB-S, not for DVB-T2
And one more question: when you can release official linux drivers with MultiPLP support???

[crazycat]

Look like 5280 not have support in linux drivers, only 5880 (same NIM as used in 6220). My patches also replace binary frontend driver with open-source TDA18212/CXD2820r with MultiPLP support. I thinks possible compile 5880 driver for ARM.

P.S. My patches updated for latest TBS V4L drivers(+ fixed support for dual NIM in 6280, 6284).

Thanks, CrazyCat. Now i focused to 5880 And cubieboard

Hello, CrazyCat.

Patched and compiled all without problems, but drivers won't work

Compiled and tested on amd64.

What may be wrong?

[updatelee]

You've got the old drivers mixed in with the new drivers.

Usually a sudo make rminstall before the install and reboot will fix it. If the folder layout is different then singles you'll need to move or rename the lib modules media folder then make install

after removing media from lib/modules/(uname -r) and make install all works fine, thanks.

One more qustion, updatelee:
What about multiPLP support in official drivers?

[crazycat]

First need update TBS V4L to current official V4L Next implement MultiPLP in precompiled binaries or better replace with open-source TDA18212/CXD2820R drivers.

P.S. My BitBucket repository with patched linux-tbs-drivers with integrated firmware install (TBS, TT, Technisat and popular demod firmwares)/.

Sounds like "five, may be six years"

Thanks for patches.

Hi there

I am new to all this, and just trying to migrate my MythTV Backend onto Raspberry Pi after making a Frontend on a different Pi.

The problem appears to be that the driver.o file shipped by Turbosight is ELF format, and won't work for ARM.

Is it possible that the source code can be made available so the ARM processors can have a compile attempted for them? I appreciate that this is proprietary code, but a raspberry pi would just be SUCH an elegant solution - imagine how many TBS5280's you'd sell if the entry point hardware for a media centre was £35...

Go on....
