em28xx WinTV dualHD in Raspbian

[ps00de]

Hi there,

I am running an updated raspbian image with kernel 4.4.23-v7+, matching
linux-headers-4.4.23-v7+_4.4.23-v7+-2_armhf from here:
https://www.niksula.hut.fi/~mhiienka/Rpi/linux-headers-rpi/ and
dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw (see linuxtv-wiki).

Before the last apt-get upgrade this works great, but now, it ends up in
recognizing the device but not create /dev/dvb.

Before it stopped working, I have executed the apt upgrade, installed the
new kernel header and run 
git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git

No errors appeared.

What I am doing wrong? The last git clone was approx. in August.


2nd question: Is there anything new in supporting both tuners of the dualHD
stick?

Based on this log:

Oct 18 23:08:01 mediapi kernel: [ 7590.369200] em28xx_dvb: disagrees about version of symbol dvb_dmxdev_init
Oct 18 23:08:01 mediapi kernel: [ 7590.369228] em28xx_dvb: Unknown symbol dvb_dmxdev_init (err -22)

it seems you messed the modules install or you have the V4L2 stack
compiled builtin with a different version.

How to fix this?

- I reinstalled the current firmware and kernel on the raspberry.
- I installed the headers with sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers
- Then I have cloned, build and installed the modules:

git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git
cd media_build 
./build
sudo make install

But the same errors appear again.

Thanks,
Patrick

There are 3 options:

1) If the V4L core is builtin on your Kernel [1], then you'll
need recompile the Kernel yourself and be sure that V4L will be
disabled. Then, you can build V4L2 using the media_build tree.
You'll likely need to fix the DRM driver dependencies through,
by modifying the Kernel source code (actually, some Kconfig file).

2) To use the em28xx driver that came at the RPi Kernel,
instead of using media_build.git. You'll also need to recompile
the RPi proprietary Kernel from its sources;

3) use the upstream Kernel. If I remember correctly, the VC4 driver
(needed for GPU support) was added on Kernel 4.7. If you're not using
a camera sensor connected to your RPi, the VC4 driver should be enough
for your needs.

[1] If you're using the RPi proprietary Kernel, I bet you have the
V4L2 core built in. I remember I found the same issue last year, while
playing with RPi proprietary Kernel - part of their GPU driver was
depending  on CONFIG_MEDIA - I think - for no good reason. I used to 
have a patch fixing it somewhere, but I was unable to find it.

I gave up and compiled an 4.7 Kernel (Option 3) - now it works out of the
box.

Hopefully some driver expert can get the second tuner working, that would be
awesome

Thanks,
Patrick

What's the problem? I don't see it described in this discussion thread.

Re: em28xx WinTV dualHD in Raspbian

[Olli Salonen]

Hi Andrey,

When I submitted the original patch to add support for this device I
stated that it only supports the first tuner. The em28xx driver is not
built with dual-tuner support in mind and I had not enough interest to
start changing it (the driver supports like 100 devices and is quite
massive). There should not be many issues in using the second tuner
itself on this device, it's just another I2C bus...

Cheers,
-olli

Hi Andrey and Olli,

sorry, didn't described that, it's written down in the patch (here: https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/33811/).

I never have written drivers before so I think I shouldn't start with it now because I have to ask too many questions... So hopefully olli or someone else can rewrite the driver to support this device. If I can help with anything, just ask.

The dualHD is a great device to insert dvb signals in home environments because it's small and not very expensive. E.g. together with and RPI and SATPI you can put it in a wall-mounted media box if you have such one for your home network.

have you seen http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-media/msg105939.html?
The guy is offering USD$200 for working dual tuner support of the ATSC
version. The ATSC version has different tuners, but maybe it is no big
deal. Would that be a little motivation for you? Or what could motivate
you? Do you like German beer? ;-)

Dual tuner support would be awesome. The device is perfect for building
a low-power VDR client or streaming server using a Raspberry Pi/Banana Pi.

Best,
Christian

AW: em28xx WinTV dualHD in Raspbian

[ps00de]

Wow, interesting offer from this guy! Hopefully this is a motivation for Olli. Maybe I also can offer beer or sth. else or help to test a new version of the driver.

With single tuner support it works great since june 24/7 (except my last upgrade of the rpi with mismatched modules...)

Cheers,
Patrick
