TVHeadend doesn't find channels

Sven B

Hi!

I'm new here... I'm running a respberry PI 3 B+ and installed raspberrian OS.

Raspbian Stretch Lite Kernel 4.14

Second step, I installed tvheadend server using a DVB Sky 960 DVB-S module.

HTS Tvheadend 4.2.4-dmo1~bpo9+1~rpt1

I just completed the wizzard (Astra 19.2 East)... but it does not find a channel.

Scan result: FAIL

If I run that adapter on my windows 10 PC, it works.

I'm not posting screenshots because I did not change any value during the wizzard (just selecting the right satelite).

What further information do you need to help me?

Sorry for disturbing... that solved the issue

Hi,

You need to place dvb-demod-m88ds3103.fw in /lib/firmware via Terminal. Firmware can be downloaded from the official LinuxTV Wiki. Take a look here. https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVBSky
