    I've checked the source code of EC168 driver and seems linked with only MXL5005S tuner.
    If your device has this combination, this evening I will upload the driver to the server with you can make some tests.

    I have tried new driver but they did not detect USB DVB-T tuner. :confused:

    So i have removed device from Solo and
    opened to see what chipset is made of.

    From experience i know Chinese OEM products
    are not always what they claim to be.
    So, here are some Pictures from the VU+ Solo On screen info panel and
    insides of USB DVB-T tuner.

    I hope this is going to help you the most. :victory:
    ATTENTION : The DVB-T tuner detection was made with drivers
    AverMedia AVerTV Volar Black HD/HD+ (A850)/(A850+)

    I believe the AF9015A-N1 is the Chipset and
    The TDA18218HN is the tuner.
    Also I have noticed printed on the board SV3432-N V01
    So if this is its true model This is Sinovideo Specifications Link.
    I have Tested tuner again on PC works fine.
    Regards.

    Your device is an AF9015 compatible and you can try to use the "AverMedia Aver Volar Black HD A850/A850+" driver.

    Hello.
    I have done this From day One
    But when I scan I get 0 services.

    The problem can be into the tuner driver. We will try to fix it.

    Hi,
    I have the ATMT DVB-T dongle and with XP installed on pc, its driver is EC168.
    What is the correct procedure for installing this tuner within my vu+ duo, i have the latest BH image.

    Sakisdvb - did you manage to get yours working m8?

    thanks all
  13. angelofsky1980 BlackHole Drivers Coder

    You should do:
    2x Blue
    select USB Tuner Panel
    1x Red
    select "Mono tuner"
    select driver you need
    confirm installation
    1x Green to enable tuner and the question about restart E2 come to you :)
  14. silly_me Vu+ Newbie

    Thanks Angelsky - I had undertaken that but the dongle is not found?

    I selected the EC168 driver, downloaded it, restarted enigma 2 and then enabled the device from the panal.

    It reports "no device found"

    Does it matter which usb port you use? I have tried both front and rear and problem is same my friend?

    I recall on the pc, when the dongle became active, a blue light was on - not when plugged into vu?

    I also tried another driver A850 i think, but problem is same.

    How do i get the dongle to work?

    Thanks m8
  15. silly_me Vu+ Newbie

    Angelsky,

    I have tried an old sv 3240 dvb-t dongle i found. (like the one in sakisdvb post above)

    I tried the same EC168 driver and it seemed to install.

    I rebooted, enabled it and scanned.

    The usb stick is a single tuner but in tuners i now have an additional two (tuner c & d). I have made sure both are set for Europe.

    When i scan on either of these tuners, i get a "scanning for channels" then after its scan it reports - no services found?

    I am using a tested tv cable that normally receives all terrestrial broadcasts.

    Is it something you are aware off m8? Can you offer a "fix"

    thansk again:)

    For each device you should report these infos after a box reboot with device connected:
    - dmesg
    - content of /proc/bus/usb/devices
  17. sakisdvb BH Lover

    Hello.
    The Dongle I have, found out it was AF9015 not EC168.
    I had to open it and see the ICs (see preview posts).
    Regards
  18. angelofsky1980 BlackHole Drivers Coder

    For AF9015 you should use AverMedia Aver Volar Black HD A850/850+ drivers :)
  19. silly_me Vu+ Newbie

    angelofsky - how do i do:- dmesg
    - content of /proc/bus/usb/devices

    Do i use telnet

    i dont have a folder called /proc on my machine?

    sorry but im a newbie with linux, i tried dmesg | grep -i usb but it didnt work
  20. angelofsky1980 BlackHole Drivers Coder

    The commands you should issue on a telnet session on your box are:

    Code:
    dmesg > /tmp/dmesg.txt
    cat /proc/bus/usb/devices > /tmp/usb.txt
    
    Then retreive the two files with FTP (/tmp/dmesg.txt and /tmp/usb.txt) and upload on the Board :)
