either si2165 or si2168
they are both in OSMC, but i can’t finde your hardware id in the source… lets see when we update to 4.1 linux kernel let me know…
Hi, yes it is definitely the one in the picture in the first wiki article ie the August DVB-T210 (V2.0).
I notice that in the wiki article the ID for this stick (and the other one referred to) is the same as is shown in my lsusb output ie
“ID 0572:c688 Conexant Systems (Rockwell), Inc.”
…except, that in the Wiki article it also has the words “Geniatech T230 DVB-T2 TV Stick” afterwards.
There is one apparent inconsistency in the article, though: it describes the other stick as being “the same” as the August one, and having various types of DVB in addition to DVBT and DVB2. However, the August stick is definitly only DVB-T and DVB-T2 - or at least that is how it is sold.
Did you ever get anywhere with this, I have exactly the same card / issue. it doesn’t seem like OSMC even discovers the card, as can’t find anything useful in dmesg (was expecting it to show something, even if it stated firmware wasn’t loaded)
Should mention I’m actually trying to get it to work on Apple TV hardware running the January 2016 OSMC build
Thats really strange as lsusb finds it Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0572:c688 Conexant Systems (Rockwell), Inc
But nothing in the kernel messages. Unfortunately I don’t have a apple TV so no idea how it should be.
Just to check do you have the USB Hub powered externally?
In the meantime maybe post output of lsusb -v | paste-log
Yes that was my thoughts too, with regards to the Kernel messages.
I’ve run the command, not sure how much will be in there though as it generated a number of errors:-
Couldn’t open device, some information will be missing
Couldn’t open device, some information will be missing
Couldn’t open device, some information will be missing

No its plugged directly into the Apple TV, not via a powered hub
That’s looks ok and generally the Apple TV should be able to power it (while you never know).
Have you tried the stick with another PC?
As mentioned don’t have a ATV 1 so not much I can help.
I’ve used it successfully on a RPi running raspbian, but was trying to see if I could consolidate TVHeadEnd onto the AppleTV (freeing up the RPI for another room)
I have OSMC installed on a SD card on the Pi, I’ll attach it to that to see what the outputs are, finally, I’ll try and plug it into a powered USB hub.
Unfortunately I don’t have anything to suggest… Other than to connect the DVB stick directly in BOTH cases.
(or use the hub in both cases)
That way you are comparing the results, with them connected in the same way,
Unless the kernel+modules (or something else) are configured differently in OSMC on the ATV1, if the DVB stick works on the Pi, I assume there is no reason why it won’t work on the ATV1 hardware. @sam_nazarko would know the details in that regard.
full disclousure: I’ve never had the pleasure of setting up a DVB stick,on any device
So tried booting OpenElec on the AppleTV to see whether it has similar issues, and it is picked up by dmesg without issue, so not a hardware compatibility issue, must be something in the ATV kernel config??
I pulled the full dmesg in case it was of use (but not sure how to attach it?)
