Vu+Duo and USB DTT

[grtmoby]

Hi all, my first post here, and I am currently holding on to the late DE 1.3.3 because of the USB DTT tuner. Sync is an issue only on HD dtt channels, and even that can easily be cured with a 2 secs timeshift. I would love to try your image, except I am afraid I will lose my current setup, which is something I can't risk. I really hope you will add DTT support soon.
Also, I would appreciate some1 to guide me through the process of making a total backup of my current DE image & setup. I am a programmer myself and have been for 30 years now, but not a Linux one: I am a newbie here.

Thank'you very much for your effort

hello and :welcome: on board m8


doing a full image backup to be restored later if needed is pretty easy.

have a look here
or u can use the attachement

same results at the end...

To be fair, teams out there with years of experience both with Dreambox and Vu+ such as PLI haven't been able to implement DTT. Why would you expect a relatively novice team to be able to do this with a bugfix revision of their first image ?

If DTT support was so important to anyone then they should have bought a DM8000.

Not every Italian has 900 Euros to pull into some German producer's A@#} and their so-called "independent" image team, fighting each and everyone threatening their position as leading elitist dreambox image team. So with DE on hiatus, UK's novice team headed by a "Sicilian" is their last hope!
I guess we have to be patient but I am quite confident in the team's skills. As mentioned previously VU+ is quite popular in Italy and I imagine an implementation of DTT would boost this image's popularity.
I am somewhat dreaming but isn't it possible to establish a connection to Dream Elite's coders? What are they doing nowadays....

it shall be the best hope with a gorgeous outcoming

just a bit of time is needed.

If anyone has their contact details please feel free to send me a PM and I will contact them asking if they would be prepared to release their USB DBT-T drivers to us

I don't have the contact details for these guys but I suggest getting in touch with the people at the German Vu+ Support Forum ! Would be nice to see teams actually working together.They are/or at least used to be in contact with those guys at DE.

For a starter I suggest having a look at the latest DE Elite ( 1.33F afaik). The things you need should be there. The User DrData made a "Quick&Dirty DVB-T Hack" for the PLiImage using:

• /lib/modules (kernel modules)
• /lib/firmware
• /usr/bin/usbtuner
• /usr/bin/delitedtt.sh

If you need any help in exchanging between the two boards - even though I am very very new to Vu+ and just a simple user - I will be glad to help you out...

DE wont release any sources guys. I read on some other forum that two/three members of DE team worked 6 months on this and this in one of the reasons why they dont want to share.
Not everyone is like PLi team which is completely opensource.

To be honest, can understand why... But, it would be nice if someone had contact details for angelofsky and Dpeddi, and they wanted to join a new team, then that'd be good hehe (assuming they weren't the ones who were wanting to close the project the most...)

u can download the DE 133F from the forum DRAGO

without the support of the server online

Hi

Why ?

(basic addons server is not working..is not a good answer..please more detailed..so somebody may help You)

If it worked earlier with You then it must work still.

 

[DRAGO.NET]

If I put the DE; panel addons does not work.
If I put a hand drivers, either.
I have a Hauppage Win and the Nova-T Stick

 

[pooface]

From what I remember, when using a dtt, you needed to connect to the de server to download the dtt drivers... Of course, the de server is not up and running, so cannot download the drivers...

exactly!!!!

@ Drago, instead of keep asking, why don't you go and do some research on how to implement this feature, then come back and help us implement it

 

[DRAGO.NET]

I am asking on various forums where they are writing.

It seems that the DVB-T Duo + Vu is on a subject that nobody cares.
there are solutions only for the AVerTV HD Black fly.
If I allowed I can post the link for this solution, but the USB DVB-T antennas most commonly used are:
AVerTV Volar Black HD
Hauppage WinTV Nova-T Stick

For the second antenna nobody has a solution?

 

[Sicilian]

You can post the info but no links to other forums.

If it's on the german vuplus support site, we've already seen the posts there... As you state, not really any good just having the 1 supported device. Would be more useful to get the full array of devices like what de had...

That 's what I'm asking .....
Maybe I'm giving nuisance. Unfortunately I can not do it alone, to my knowledge there's not much. I do testers ...


I have a friend who Vu + Duo with the elite dream and installed Hauppage ...
if you want I can send you the backup of the image ..
If you can help .........
