list of tv tuners

[1mile]

Hey Guys,

is there a list of tv tuners that work with live tv on xbmc ? I'm in canada we use bell satelite and want to make sure I can connect it. Anyone help

Not yet, can you choose an adapter (I prefer from here: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-C_USB_Devices). Then I will check if the driver is included.

Is the tv tuner Hauptauge930c (Not 930 c hd) supported?

[Koenkk]

That one is not supported yet, but if you want we can add support for it (http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-930C )

That will be very friendly if you can support this one....


How long do I need to wait? or give me a rough explanation how can I do it by myself ! Thanks in advance, I'm new in the Linux topic

An other question which USB DVB-C reciever is supported yet?!

[Koenkk]

@CurlyMo, can you conpile the firmware? Instructions are on the bottom of this page:
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-930C )

@koerli All you can find on http://www.linuxtv.org will probably work (if not, there is a high chance we can make them work). People still need to commit their working DVB-C adapters to http://wiki.xbian.org/view/Recommended_and_supported_hardware (as currently non are listed there).

Done: https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/commit/a9b0618ac59daa9fa2ed30acff423aaecdb36d2f

One downside, it increased the size of the kernel modules + firmware with a whopping 75mb.

How do I integrate the new kernel modules + firmware into my xbian1.0Alpha5 ?! Can you explain this to me?

75mb is too much to include this by default

[CurlyMo]

Depends on what we support with it.

[Koenkk]

Seems that it includes a LOT of dvb-c modules so maybe it's not that bad

[koerli]

How do i install xbian altest with the new modules, please help me.

First I've istalled the normal rasbian image and followed your instruction with finish.

After that I typed.

Code:

wget https://github.com/xbianonpi/xbian/wiki/Setup-XBian-(Latest)

and than

Code:

./Setup-XBian-(Latest)

and than

Code:

exit and pressed return

was this correct?

Thanks in advance.

This is not a complete list. It lists only specific manufacturers or cards with specific features that are not supported with all cards of the same type.

@manal18

I always advise the users to follow linuxTV portal. as XBian is using standard linux kernel tree and on request we can include out-of-tree drivers as well, this will provide the requestor with most up-to-date and relevant info.

by default XBian comes with almost ALL AVAILABLE modules as compiled. So what is supported by std linux kernel is as module with XBian.
