IIUC VIVI appears as an analogue adapter so will NOT work with newer versions of Tvheadend as the underlying code that supports analogue has been removed, however older versions 3.4/3.5 still have that code.
So if you're looking at having analogue input you need to use an older version.
No DVB/ATSC or even IPTV available?
