Hi

every time the kernel updated the error maybe different , usually do not need to update the kernel for kernel 5.4.x please use this package :'
# wget http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/document/linux/media_build-2020-09-23.tar.bz2
# sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/
#tar jxvf media_build-2020-09-23.tar.bz2
#cd media_build
#./install.sh
#reboot

Well I wasn't able to try it until this week because no new kernel update appeared before then, but this time it did work other than that when I ran ./install.sh as a user it failed, with several lines showing permissions errors right at the end. So I deleted the media_build directory and started over but this time did sudo ./install.sh and then it worked, although I saw a lot of warning and error messages in the output. I suspect the problem is that at the end it is trying to copy files to directories that are owned by root, which of course you can't do as a normal user in Linux. But anyway the tuners are working so I am happy about that, and thank you!

Quick question, this was using the file media_build-2020-09-23.tar.bz2, just in case that ever doesn't work after a future kernel update how would I find out if there is a more recent version of that file? I tried going to http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/document/linux to see if I could see a listing of the available files but it just said "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /download/document/linux/ on this server".

Thank you, steven!
