diseqc: failed to set voltage (e=Resource temporarily unavailable)

robbie wigwam

I've got a dvbs-960 rigged up to a usb powered hub to a raspberry pi 2.

everytime i scan i get mux's failing due to "diseqc: failed to set voltage (e=Resource temporarily unavailable)"

i have had it working before but reinstalled.

any way to turn off attempting the diseqc??

I would guess - and it's genuinely that - at one of the following, in no particular order:

1. You don't have access to the tuners (video group membership or similar) - what user:group are you running as?

2. The tuner hasn't initialised correctly (firmware or driver) - what's in dmesg/syslog?

3. Could be a bug in tvh - does wscan/scan_s2/whatever have any better luck, or generate a more useful error message?

As I said, guesses only, as I have neither a Pi2 nor a diseqc switch... actually...

4. You do have a switch, don't you, and you're not configured to switch what isn't actually there?

1) top shows the tvheadend running as hts

2) looks like you are right i thought 3.18 kernel had it pre-loaded

3) not sure of the command to do this with Astra 28.8

4) no switch just straight cable to the lnb.

going to look for the firmware files now

we have a winner with the driver now.

Thank you for the suggestion :)
