Geniatech HDStar v3 DVB-S2 Not Working?

Help and Support Raspberry Pi
21

Hi

Hopefully the issue is now addressed with the following commit:

I’d appreciate it if you could test this and provide feedback before we potentially release this as an update to other users. To test this update:

  1. Login via the command line
  2. Edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list
  3. Add the following line: deb http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main
  4. Run the following commands to update: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot
  5. Your system should have have received the update.

Please see if the issue is resolved.

I also recommend you edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and remove the line that you added after updating. This will return you to the normal update channel.

Thanks for the PR @marklam

Cheers

Sam

Also, if you’ve already done a scan with the non-working setup, you might need to delete everything from “Channel/EPG” and “Stream” tabs and go through the setup wizard again.

23

Installed the stretch-devel build over a stock Mar(02) install (thanks, @b3n_ja_m1n) and it works fine.

Really appreciate the patch @marklam :slightly_smiling_face:

Glad to hear its working with with testbuild i will give it a test near weekend.

Is the correct firmware installed with the test build or do i have to manually copy it in the firmware folder. I believe its the dvb-fe-ds3000.fw. There’s a few different versions going by this site.

Thanks again mark and cheers @sam_nazarko for the test build. :+1:

Its md5sum is a32d17910c4f370073f9346e71d34b80, the one marked as ‘commonly used’.

@marklam, @the_bo and @sam_nazarko I have just test two of the fw files and made the update “http://apt.osmc.tv stretch-devel main” as you describe and it doesn’t work.
Is there any kind of soultion or I have to follow the instructions described in:

https://bitbucket.org/updatelee/v4l-updatelee

27

The geniatech was added in the April update so you don’t need to update to stretch devel.

Did you place the firmware in correct folder. Think it’s in etc/lib/firmware if I remember.

Are you using tvheadend?

Can you run the command dmesg after reboot and paste output.

28

If course I do. I have an a DVBSky s960 working properly. But Tvheadend doesnt’ world with Geniatech and two months ago I tested a Terratec Cingergy S2 that didn’t work either.

29

Are you on the latest April update.

Plug in the geniatech then reboot and post output of dmesg so we can see if it’s finding the firmware correctly.

@the_bo , @sam_nazarko this dmesg output after copyright this file:

Into /libre/firmware and reboot

And this id the output of “uname -a”:

Linux osmc-habitacion 4.14.34-1-osmc #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 25 16:58:37 UTC
018 armv7l GNU/Linux

32

Is that the full output of dmesg?

It doesn’t show looking for firmware file. It should show something similar to waiting for firmware upload

Place firmware file in /lib/firmware folder. There shouldn’t be a libre folder there. Did you modify the system in anyway.

If you have a spare sd card you could try a reinstallation on it with the April update to see if it works to rule out any issues with your system.

33

Sorry @the_bo , It has been a transcription error. It has been placed in /lib/firmware

34

Hi All,

@the_bo, @sam_nazarko. This is the complete dmesg transcription after reinstall osmc, and copy fw file into /lib/firmware (common used and latest) checksum files and rebooting, again and again and there is no solution:

This is the version of osmc:
inux osmc 4.14.34-1-osmc #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 25 16:58:37 UTC 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux

Any suggestion?

35

I took the liberty of reformatting the dmesg output.

Are you using the original power adapter that came with the HDStar?

Try changing the USB cable.

So when you open tvheadend there is nothing displayed under DVB Inputs?

37

I have the same device and the same issues.
Was there any evolution on this @submarinu ?

[edit] I also have a pinnacle hauppauge wintv solo hd (dvb-c that works just fine).

As you can see, wintv is loaded fine (si2168 chipset), but geniatech (su3000hd) has no front end.

listing directories:

adapter 0 (geniatech):

osmc@osmc:~$ ls /dev/dvb/adapter0
demux0  dvr0  net0

adapter 1 (hauppauge wintv):

osmc@osmc:~$ ls /dev/dvb/adapter1
demux0  dvr0  frontend0  net0

again: no frontend for geniatech.

Does anyone knows how to enable frontend for geniatech hdstar v3 dvb-s2 (DS3000HD) ???

thanks

39

The patch I added to make this work got deleted here

40

This means I have to recompile the kernel to insert the patch ?
or was there any osmc kernel version compiled with that patch ?

thanks.
