dont use with ubuntu 14.04 3.19 generic kernel
a lot of errors compile this drivers

Hi

I have some questions about this driver.

Will it need to be re-installed each time the kernel is updated like the closed source driver?

Does it support all the hardware, for instance the IR receiver?

Also, one or two people are saying it works better than the other driver. In what way is it better? And for that matter are there any ways in which it is worse?

Thanks

Rob

IR not supported for saa716x-based TBS PCI-E cards.
ECP3 FPGA based not have IR sensor.

All supported TBS USB have IR RC support. Old CX2388x-based also..

Aha! that is actually a bonus for me so please don't add support

I was unable to isolate the IR on my 6285 board via udev rules so I still get the odd occasion where the device nodes get mixed up with my mceusb transmitter (for STB channel changing), and means I have to quickly change my lirc config each time that happens.

btw, stable TVHeadend 4.0.x show only DVB-T and C nodes for si2168. But in MUX config possible select standard as annex A,B,C

and in cards like tbs6281, you can get dvb-t on tunner0, and dvb-c on tunner1, with only one cabe input, you just have to use a diplexer(i used a bad splitter ) to mix both signals on same cable.
the downside is is you lock dvb-c on adapter0, dvb-t on adapter0 should be unvavailable, and tvh reports available, so if you try to lock a freq it will give you bad signal.
other than that it works very well.

Hi everyone.
I'm trying to built the drivers but i'm getting errors.
Tried with 14.04 15.10 and 16.04 and always the same.
What am i missing?

Thanks Steven.
I pulled again and now it works. They might have fixed it in the meantime.
