    sundtek developed for their DVB-C/T-Stick a kernel module called "usbkhelper". It's open source and google will find it for you :smiling_face:


    Reduces the load on my 800se from >1 to around <0.3 as without an usb-tuner. At the DM800 the effect should be much higher... But I don't know if it works with other sticks too :confused_face:


    Edit: khelper can be found there: http://www.sundtek.com/support/


    Thank you very much



    i have seen this tool either in sundtek forum and ihad too, but i thought it was independent from vtuner acceleration support. Did you find this load difference only with drivers from 08 dec 2010 or with older version? This usbkhelper works with older drivers too?


    this bacuase usbkheler was about summer 2010, while Dmm drivers was 08 dec 2010, maybe Dmm vtuner acceleration does something else...




    thanks

    Hi to all


    i have seen there are some updates in DMM drivers from dec 2010 about Vtuner acceleration support.
    I' using a dm800 with external usb dvb-t receiver with 3rd party tool to use it with E2, but i have not notice any improvment with newer drivers



    (i'm using extuner from Sif , link here..)
    http://code.google.com/p/opene…/trunk/extuner/src/main.c


    similar tool is used by openpli


    i'd like to ask to devs is there are some hints how this acceleration works or about activate it.


    Thanks

    Hi


    i have made some tests about a usb dvb-t device in my dm800. Either with OE 1.5 and OE 1.6 i can get an accettable use with vtuner interface.
    there are some bugs in the different usb device's backported drivers but nothing major.
    BTW, I have noticed a common issue with dvb-t HD channels, using the Homey's usbtuner (patched for dvb-t/c standard), the CPU load is about 30/40% making enigma2 unstable (maybe you can watch an HD channel but if you open some GUI menu or try to make an HDD recording enigma2 hangs).
    with SD channels the usbtuner cpu load is about 3/6%.
    I think the high cpu load is due by ioctl calls to transer by usb the HD ts.


    i attach the usbtuner sources:




    playing with the buffer's value (lines 246-247) seems to change cpu load. with some devices works ok with 512*512 or 1024*1024, some others requires highest values.
    higher values seems to reduce cpu laod, but make enigma2 unstable.
    Do you have some hints to optimize this values and code?


    Thanks a lot.

    Hi to all


    i have made some tests with a usb dvb-t tuner (cinergy t2) which is supported by dm800 kernel (2.6.12)


    i have loaded the module, and i found an adapeter1 under /dev/dvb


    using usbtuner from Homey i get this output with cat /proc/bus/nim_sockets


    root@dm800:/usr/bin# cat /proc/bus/nim_sockets
    NIM Socket 0:
    Type: DVB-S2
    Name: Alps BSBE2
    Has_Outputs: yes
    NIM Socket 1:
    Type: DVB-T
    Name: USB-Tuner
    Has_Outputs: no



    but enigma2 doesn't recognized this tuner, only tuner a (alps dvb-s2).
    there is a way to get this usb tuner recognized by enigma2?



    thanks a lot :smiling_face:

    Please provide some information about the hard- and software used.


    Box type: dm600
    GUI (enigma1/enigma2): enigma1
    Firmware version:


    your question


    i can't format the hd into the dm600
    the hd is recognized (but some letters are different fijitsu...is funwisu, etc)


    i can't format...the box try to begin format but after some seconds come back the the hd setup, and the hd is still in "not inizialized" status.




    what can i do? i have tried several hd with different brand and size...maybe the dm600 is defective?


    thanks

    Please provide some information about the hard- and software used.

    your question



    Hi to all...


    i have a dreambox dm500s with a gemini image 3.10 installed in flash



    i have installed on my pc the server unix facilities and i get it working with my dm500 in sharing an hdd in my pc by NFS...now i can record and play by the PC's hdd...



    now i have tried to install a multibbot image in the shared hard disk to make some tries to test other images....but i can't get the multibooy working good..


    i used the flashwizard pro softaware by musicbob to install in the hdd som images...i can do this and i can recognize these images by the multiboot menu on the dm500 but i can't boot up these image...



    anyone ha some ideas? I wrong something?


    Thanks
