I've been looking for ages for information regarding the QBox-S2 USB and Linux. TBS say it works but I've not read anything other than that really, maybe because it works without many issues!
I think that may be the box I'm going to get when I eventually sort a satellite out!
+1
sounds like this could do the job for me too, not too expensive either.

gururu Wrote:@ant_thomas, glad that helps
Exactly!
And I've tried DVBWorld DVB-S2 USB Adapter (With CI adapter), seems the driver's good, but it can not load the firmware witch I've downloaded from DVBWorld's website. I didn't figure that out in time, couse my friend took it back very soon.
Now I'm less convince, if you couldn't work it out then I've got no chance

Code:
grep "query RC" * -rand comment out where needed,, recompile, install and all is well..
Btw, i managed to get pvr.hts (Tvheadend) working, it was missing a addon.xml file.
while alwin is away and cannot update the repository, use the following addon.xml (normally under /usr/share/xbmc/addons/pvr.hts)
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Let me be clear:
DVBWorld S2 box has 2 diffrent version, one has CI&CA and the other one not, please check those links below:
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVBWorld_HD_2104_CA%2BCI_USB_Box
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVBWorld_HD_2104_FTA_USB2.0_Box
The one with CI not work for me for now(but it should work), the FTA one definitely works.
All DVBWOrld box are fully supported on Ubuntu 9.10 without any compling issues.
And, please note the CI one can recive higher symborate than FTA one (more than 30000).

l.capriotti Wrote:the only annoyance is that you have to compile the drivers yourself, and you have to repeat the process manually at every kernel upgrade.
Other than that, the box works quite well.
I'm glad you've told me that, I now know what to expect.

druggo Wrote:i have the same tuners as you, tvheadend is swapping very fast, are u using the drivers from tevii? they debug log some RC messages, but remove that and recompile them, thats what i did.
I'm a linux novice so will try and figure out what needs to be done to recompile them
what kernel do you have btw?
thanks

All,
I have created a deb package for you all.
http://rapidshare.com/files/404641204/linux-tevii_ds3000-1_i386.deb.html
you will need 2.6.32-23 however I made that a dependency
the only thing I have not figured out is the post scripts of packaging so you manually have to copy the firmware "cp *.fw /lib/firmware"http://rapidshare.com/files/404641644/TeVii-fw.tar.gz.html
Is a copy of just the .fw
gzip -dc TeVii-fw.tar.gz.html
sudo mv *.fw /lib/firmware
I will try and get the .dep to do this in the future, so we can have an updated build on every new kernel. I will also look at adding it to ppa.

Hi
Is realy this version from Gujs PPA support VDPAU ? I've tried a lot without success. Previosly I used pvr-testing-36~yavdr-karmic30871+6 form that PPA:https://launchpad.net/~henningpingel/+archive/xbmc and VDPAU worked very well on both MPEG2 and MPEG4 (h.264) stream on feature_C card (nVidia GT 220).
System->Video->Playback->Rendering.... is set up to Auto.
Could one point me what else shoud I check ?
Regards
Janusz
- Gujs - 2010-07-06
You need to enable VDPAU in System -> Video -> Playback -> Allow hardware Acceleration (VDPAU) must be set to enabled.
- janumix - 2010-07-06
Thanks Gujs - I got it - still without success.
Hm... please, as far as I know there was a problem with nvidia feature C like GT210, GT220 etc. abt. rev. 28000. Not sure but is it this case ?

problem with install - gurusurfer - 2010-07-07
hi guys. I did a install of tv head but it did not seem to install correctly.
when it got up to the part where you set your admin name and password. i only got the password window come up and now then i try to access the site i cant get in to it because i dont have a user name. after try a new reinstall. it will not even show the window for setting name and password. reinstalled it that many times its not funny.
is there a way to access the config to set password and user name up in terminal or a way to get the admin window to show to set user name or password again to fix this issue?
any help would be great. im using ubuntu 10.4
thank you
- mason - 2010-07-07
the access is stored in the homefolder of the hts user...
/home/hts/.hts/tvheadend/acesscontrol
try the following :
Code:
{
"enabled": 1,
"username": "*",
"password": "*",
"comment": "New entry",
"prefix": "0.0.0.0/0",
"streaming": 1,
"dvr": 1,
"webui": 1,
"admin": 1,
"id": "1"
}this would allow unrestricted access to tvheadend ....
- bmentink - 2010-07-08
You can also run tvheadend without username password by executing "tvheadend -C -f"
Cheers,
Bernie

The last version of tvheadend in the gujs ppa does not work very well for me. The image and sound is corrupted too often in some channels and sometimes the tvheadend crashes when this occurs.
It is not a problem with hardware, drivers or signal, because with kaffeine aplication works correctly. The video of the channels are encoded with mpeg-2 and i have disabled hardware acceleration.
Has someone else got the same problem?
If I install the 2.11 versión of tvheadend will I lose the PVR functionality of XBMC?
