Hi Audioniek,

I just installed atevio7500_Audioniek_enigma2_gst-epl3_USB_CDK-rev1347.tar.gz on my Octagon 1028 and it looks good at first glance. However, I have a problem with the SAT tuner (Availink avl2108): no matter which settings I choose in tuner regarding voltage (13V/18V/polarization), only horizontally polarized channels appear - scans for channels with vertical polarization does not yield any results. The same holds for rev1331 from December.

I did not find any logs - what can I do to investigate this error further?

A HDMU image from late 2017 works fine and does find the channels with vertical polarization.

Best,

I did not make any progress on this except that I found the following link from this board that mentions a "tuner 12V bug":

Could this be related? If I understand correctly, 12 V is the voltage used to select vertically polarized channels. Does anyone know how this bug was fixed?

After building a DEBUG version using Audioniek's build system (Enigma 2 from Jan. 28), I called dmesg and found that the kernel log was filled with errors of the kind

avl2108: ERROR: Could not get lock status!

like 10s of these messages in a row. Any ideas?

Hi Audoniek,

with the updated image atevio7500_Audioniek_enigma2_gst-epl3_USB_CDK-rev1364.zip from late March
the problem still persists: the tuner can't find any vertically polarized channels. The tuner is a Sony CXD2820R.

How can we approach this problem?

Sorry, the DVB-S tuner is an Availink AVM2108, see the output below. Sorry for coming with another report, but I also have challenges with the DVB-T/T2 tuner, which is a Samsung CXD2820. It is only recognized as a DVB-T (not T2) tuner (see below as well ) so that I cannot tune in to any channels that use the DVB-T2 standard. This problem is also present on the latest HDMU image 16228 enigma2 Git 581.

How can I force the system to treat Tuner 1 as a DVB-T2 instead of DVB-T tuner?

Regards,

mrspeccy

I already spotted that the Sony CXD2820 is a DVB-T tuner. The problem is the driver. For the this Fortis model two different DVB-T tuners were sold. The early model does not support DVB-T2. It has a Sony CXD2820 tuer and a Samsung 5SH1432 demodulator. Both the driver and the datasheet for the latter are confidential and for that reason are not part of the image I can offer. As far as I know a driver can be found in Bpanthers' Neutrino images, but this will not solve your problem, as only the later DVB-T tuner supports DVB-T2. At present I do not know which chips it is based on.

In the past I have started work on a driver for the older model, but my tuner module broke down while working on the driver. These tuner modules are hard to find, as the majority of the receivers were sold and used with 2x DVB-S(2) as tuners and this receiver model is slowly coming of age and re-/disgarded as obsolete, although it is my favourite Fortis model.

Hi Audieniek,

thank you for your fast reply. I just tried the original Octagon 1028P software from 2017 and found that it allows me to tune in to DVB-T2 channels! So I seems I have the "newer" variant of the Sony CXD2820 tuner - sometimes this is possibly referred to by CXD2820R (https://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Sony_CXD2820). The latter link also refers to open source Linux drivers but I'm not sure it helps. Do you have a link to Bpanther's Neutrino images?

(The situation is that I am located in Denmark where more and more channels are moved from the DVB-T to the DVB-T2 standard, so this is why I'm interested in receiving the DVB-T2 channels. In the worst case, I have to move back to the original Octagon software or buy a new receiver.)

The other issue I mentioned is that with your build of the atevio7500 image, the DVB-S tuner does not allow me to tune in to vertically polarized channels on Astra 19E - which works with the latest HDMU image, though. I know I am demanding a lot, but can you reproduce this issue with your DVB-S tuners on the Octagon/Fortis?

Hi
Can this file be used for hs 7420a hardware?
And has anyone been able to install this file on the device?
Do any of your friends have a file for this receiver model?
Thank you for giving it to me
