I have tried new driver but they did not detect USB DVB-T tuner. :confused:

So i have removed device from Solo and
opened to see what chipset is made of.

From experience i know Chinese OEM products
are not always what they claim to be.
So, here are some Pictures from the VU+ Solo On screen info panel and
insides of USB DVB-T tuner.

I hope this is going to help you the most. :victory:
ATTENTION : The DVB-T tuner detection was made with drivers

I believe the AF9015A-N1 is the Chipset and
The TDA18218HN is the tuner.
Also I have noticed printed on the board SV3432-N V01
So if this is its true model This is Sinovideo Specifications Link.
I have Tested tuner again on PC works fine.
Regards.

Your device is an AF9015 compatible and you can try to use the "AverMedia Aver Volar Black HD A850/A850+" driver.

Hello.

First of all I have flashed receiver with new BlackHole V1.5

I have a OEM sinovideo SV-3420B USB DVB-T tuner and tried to installed today.
This device was purchased from ebay lately. Looks like this.
Same as most OEM sinovideo USB DVB-T tuners.

The manufacturers Specifications
With E3C EC168 chipset.
With Maxliner 5003s silicone tuner.

I have been using it on my computer for 1-2 weeks.
Installed driver on computer is AF9015 USB DVB-T tuner.
Channel scan works fine and everything is ok. :victory:

Today after reading the news about new BH 1.5 image native support for
USB DVB-T tuners (Single/Dual/etc.)
and already supports devices with AF9015 I thought to gived a try.
The driver i have installed at VU+ Solo is AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD/HD+ (A850)/(A850+)
The DVB-T tuner is recognized and activated as AF9015.
I have set it up as European DVB-T tuner.
I have removed the RF cable from TV and connected it to USB DVB-T tuner but
neither Auto-scan or manual-scan find any services.

Am I missing something ? :fie:
Please Advise me.

Regards.

You should do:
2x Blue
select USB Tuner Panel
1x Red
select "Mono tuner"
select driver you need
confirm installation
1x Green to enable tuner and the question about restart E2 come to you :)

Thanks Angelsky - I had undertaken that but the dongle is not found?

I selected the EC168 driver, downloaded it, restarted enigma 2 and then enabled the device from the panal.

It reports "no device found"

Does it matter which usb port you use? I have tried both front and rear and problem is same my friend?

I recall on the pc, when the dongle became active, a blue light was on - not when plugged into vu?

I also tried another driver A850 i think, but problem is same.

How do i get the dongle to work?

Thanks m8

Angelsky,

I have tried an old sv 3240 dvb-t dongle i found. (like the one in sakisdvb post above)

I tried the same EC168 driver and it seemed to install.

I rebooted, enabled it and scanned.

The usb stick is a single tuner but in tuners i now have an additional two (tuner c & d). I have made sure both are set for Europe.

When i scan on either of these tuners, i get a "scanning for channels" then after its scan it reports - no services found?

I am using a tested tv cable that normally receives all terrestrial broadcasts.

Is it something you are aware off m8? Can you offer a "fix"

thansk again:)

For each device you should report these infos after a box reboot with device connected:
- dmesg
- content of /proc/bus/usb/devices

Hello.
The Dongle I have, found out it was AF9015 not EC168.
I had to open it and see the ICs (see preview posts).

The commands you should issue on a telnet session on your box are:

Code: 
dmesg > /tmp/dmesg.txt
cat /proc/bus/usb/devices > /tmp/usb.txt

Then retreive the two files with FTP (/tmp/dmesg.txt and /tmp/usb.txt) and upload on the Board :)
