Okay, thank you!

Interesting... thought they'd be the right drivers to get the device
working due to the (possibly outdated) information on it's wiki page...

Well, that seems to be some sort of problem. I found this site (and
several others during March, 14th)
http://lists-archives.org/video4linux/20835-extract-tool-for-xc3028-firmware.html
which shows how to extract the firmware file in question. It doesn't
seem to fit my card though... I've done it anyways though.

No error messages printed by the drivers anymore, just the normal output:

Here comes the interesting part, though: radio -s is finding no
stations (this is not critical for me, but indicates some misbehavior)
and dvbscan does only output "Unable to query frontend status" (Exit
code 1.)

After running dvbcan, dmesg grows by following messages:

[16485.369819] i2c-adapter i2c-4: firmware: requesting xc3028-v27.fw

I've also been curious about analog TV (which is my premier "want to
get it working" aim)... with no luck. tvtime-scanner scanned and
scanned and scanned without finding any station.

New messages after running tvtime-scanner:

[16491.995176] xc2028 4-0061: Loading firmware for type=D2633 DTV8
(210), id 0000000000000000.

[16492.080028] cx88[0]: Calling XC2028/3028 callback

So... I guess nothing is working sadly...

I'm really not sure whether the correct firmware is used. This HVR
firmware file is said to be "generic" (more or less), but your
firmware package for Pinnacle devices does include a lot of other
firmware files which seem not to include this "*-v27.fw" file either...

Thank you once again for helping out.

Best regards,


Mihai
