List of suported devices?

P J

Is there a list of supported tuners?

Or is nothing supported and one is supposed to know linux to compile and install?

Hein Rigolo

all DVB tuners that are supported under linux are also supported by tvheadend.

You can see that list on linux.org

If you say so.

In fact, linuxtv.org is probably the more suitable place to look - here's a reasonable

starting point:

http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hardware_Device_Information

I have a couple of TBS PCIe cards (one sat, one terrestrial) and whilst their
drivers are good and frequently updated, they haven't used any sort of DKMS-style
auto-build when you update your kernel. This means, yep, you have to rebuild the
drivers every single time you update your kernel. It doesn't help that they have

some binary blobs in there too - see http://www.tbsdtv.com/download/

Once the drivers are in place though, tvheadend has no trouble picking them up, but
it seems to use the chip set name in its list without any numbers or letters to identify
multiple tuners on one card (so I edit the names to something like "Satellite tuner A"
(though to D for my quad tuner sat card) and also there is no way in tvheadend to delete
the config for one or more tuners on the device and have it rescan/relist
the tuners from scratch again :-(

Thank you for your reply.

I'm just a clueless enduser who saw the package show up on his NAS and thought it might be cool if it worked. But I have no idea how this works, and not time to become programmer and or developer. I guess I'll uninstall it and back off.

Thank you for your time.
