I have now realised I am being stupid and should be trying to use Gennar1's new driver, in the way he says should work for PCs. Sorry for all the dumb posts.

For anyone interested, I have managed to get the Leadtek WinFast DTV2000DS PLUS working in Xubuntu 12.04 with 3.2 kernel using the github version of Ambrosa's driver. I didn't need the newer version from Gennar1. Details are on the linuxtv wiki. All I had to do was edit the header file to include the PID.

Please add "TerraTec Cinergy T Stick+", Device ID 0ccd:00d7 next time.

Not problem for me, I did add this manually and recompiled. Thanks for your good work!

I have one of these sticks, and it works fine for DVB-T reception. The question is, can I use it for DVB-C reception as well? How do I convince the driver that he is of the DVB-C type so that enigma2 recognises it as such?

The driver should report all the systems it supports (T, C).
When it does, e2 offers the possibility to switch between systems.

I see. What I do see is that e2 offers the possibility to select the DVB-C frequency range. However, even when I do that (and reboot after that), the driver still registers as DVB-T and does not allow me to tune to the same channels my built-in DVB-C tuner already knows.

Then I'm afraid the driver for your particular device does not advertise multiple DELSYS properly.

BTW, this is how I worked around a similar issue, for another frontend:

It's not a user-friendly procedure, especially for a linux newby, as it involves compiling the entire set of media drivers and replacing the current kernel modules on your system.

Anyway, this is the step-by-step guide:

1) download the dvb-usb-rtl2832_kernel_3.8.tar.gz file on your home directory;
2) unpack it:

tar xvzf dvb-usb-rtl2832_kernel_3.8.tar.gz

3) clone the media_build repo and compile it:

git clone git://linuxtv.org/media_build.git
cd media_build
./build


You may need to install the 'git' package (using your distribution package management tool) and also you will need the linux-headers package and maybe something else; the 'build' script will tell you which packages you need.

4) apply the patch and compile everything again:

cd linux
patch -p1 < ~/dvb-usb-rtl2832.patch
cd ..
make allmodconfig
make

You will need the 'patch' package to complete this step (install it as usual).

5) if you encountered no errors, you can install the new drivers on your system:

sudo make install

and you are ready to use your new device.

Are you sure your device supports DVB-C?
AFAIK, rtl2832 is a DVB-T demodulator only, and hybrid devices with DVB-C support have a second demodulator named rtl2840. It is supported by this driver, but I have no idea if it works with Enigma2.
Note that the dvb-usb-rtl2832 kernel module has a 'demod' parameter to select the delsys:

demod:Set default demod type(0=dvb-t, 1=dtmb, 2=dvb-c) (int)

I don't know how it is supposed to work, but you may play with this parameter to see if it has any effect.

This thread has some pointers for what you can do. Hope it helps you. http://www.vuplus-co...k-with-vu.9028/

In Ubuntu 13.04 the Cinergy TStick RC with the Realtek chipset stick works out of the box. On older versions of the OS read that wiki: http://wiki.ubuntuus...Cinergy_T_Stick

I've got a peak dvb-t usb stick, usb id 1b80:d395 Afatech, worked fine with the old kernel 3.0 driver but can't get it working with the new 3.8 version. compiles without errors, the only thing i've noticed is that dmesg gives

 

 
[ 7411.122103] usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=1b80, idProduct=d395
[ 7411.122114] usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[ 7411.122121] usb 1-2: Product: usbtv
[ 7411.122126] usb 1-2: Manufacturer: realtek
 
could the apparent inability to decide if it's realtek or afatech be the problem? and if so how do i fix it?
