Re: v4l-dvb unsupported device: Conceptronic CTVDIGUSB2 1b80:d393 (Afatech) - possibly similar to CTVCTVDIGRCU v3.0?

Thank you; indeed I provided incomplete information (i forgot the v3.0 part). Is it possible to force the driver to treat my chipset as if it was an af9015 and try and see if it works? thanks m. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe linux-media in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I'll make a note of that on the wiki page. Is the CTVDIGRCU well supported by mainline? I think I can source these locally. Is the AF9015 driver stable? I've had very bad luck with 3 different devices now.

Matteo: If I read this well, CTVDIGUSB2 1b80:d393 (Afatech) is not at all similar to the CTVDIGRCU. The CTVDIGRCU has a Realtek RTL2831U decoder, and is NOT included in the standard dvb list. Conceptronic just packages sticks from other vendors. The fact that the device ID is recognized point towards the afatech driver, and not the Realtek RTL2831U driver. Fot background on the Realtek RTL2831U driver, see: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Realtek_RTL2831U matteo sisti sette wrote: Hi, I hope this is the right place for reporting this; if not, please forgive and redirect me. My DVB-T USB stick, a Conceptronic USB 2.0 Digital TV Receiver CTVDIGUSB2 doesn't work after succesfully compiling and installing v4l-dvb, and it seems it is not supported according to the device list. The ID is 1b80:d393 The name Conceptronic USB 2.0 is very similar to that of CTVDIGRCU, which _is_ supported and the chipset seems to be indeed an Afatech as the output of lsusb reports: Bus 002 Device 007: ID 1b80:d393 Afatech (or isn't that reliable?) So I wonder whether this is one of the cases where the following applies: The driver has to be aware that it's related to some hardware (typically through the subsystem ID from the USB ID or PCI ID). If the driver doesn't recognize/bind to your particular hardware, then the module will probably load but then proceed to not do anything. In other words, support for your device would have to be added to the driver. If I understand correctly (pleas correct me if I am wrong), IF that is the case (which may be not), then making it work should be just a matter of adding the id of the device to the source code of the driver somewhere and recompiling it and it would work?? If so, is it something I may try following some step-by-step guide?
