Hey!
Success! RPi package looks like useless with Rockchip based devies (standard offline package is x86 only), so i tried to build new drivers from sources. It's not easy, under ARM, but with big help of Google I was able to build my own driver
Some info for other people:
HW setup:
- Pine 64 RockPro64, 4GB RAM, 6core RK3399, PCIe x4,...
- 32GB eMMC
- Tuner TBS 6205 (PCI based quad DVB-T/T2/C)
- Noname 12@4A wall adaptor
SW setup:
- Armbian Buster 21.02.3 - for Rockpro64 kernel 5.10.21
- Open Source drivers
* - Armbian with 4.x kernel isn't able to boot with this TV tuner in slot..
Building process is very simillar to "standard" process described in
Git Wiki.
In my case step
"make -j4" failed with two errors about missing file
rkisp1-config.h. This file isn't in
media_build/linux/include/uapi/linux, but in
/home/scritch/tbsdtv/media/include/uapi/linux/Tried to copy this file to right folder with:
cp media/include/uapi/linux/rkisp1-config.h media_build/linux/include/uapi/linuxbut without succes (I dont know why this failed) - so i copy this file step by step like
cp media/include/uapi/linux/rkisp1-config.h ../ to the "/" folder and from here again step by step to right folder.
From now - command
"make -j4" can finish his job without error
NOTE: compiling is soo sloooow and CPU get soo hot! Don't forget about cooling!

From now i have nice, powerfull (but energy efficient) TV -> LAN straming server for my living home. TV Headend based. With much better image quality compared to my previous USB-based tuners server. Power consumption in idle is less than 7W (minimum what can my wall plug measure), 8-10W with one FHD channel streaming.
Sorry for ground picture - short cables
