Hauppage WinTV dualHD - no adapter shown in tvheadend

Hi,

I tried to connect a new Hauppage WinTV dualHD tuner to my Vero 4K+ but in tvheadend no adapters are shown.

From what I can see in dmesg the device seems to be identified correctly:

I found some post on the WinTV dualHD on the forum, but no real solution. Also I couldn’t really make sure, if the device is supported on the Vero 4K+ by now or not (it should be since kernel 4.7, I think).

Any ideas?

Yes there are several especially one that is talking about it on Vero4k, I suggest to jump on that thread to discuss.

General steps is:

  1. Ensure the driver is loaded lsmod
  2. Download latest Firmware and ensure it is in the right spot http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/Si2168/Si2168-B40/4.0.11/dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
