The driver in linux kernel 2.6.24.2 for "Terratec Cinergy DT usb XS diversity" sets the reported bandwith outside the fe_bandwidth_t range. The value 0 (BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ) is replaced with 8000. Here is an example showing the problem...

Device: Terratec Cinergy DT usb xs diversity
Linux: 2.6.24.2 (modules: mt2266, dvb_usb_dib0700)
Firmware: dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw

Received event for frontend 0

Status for frontend 0 is now:
0 (no signal)

Reported parameters for frontend 0 are now:
Frequency: 714000000 Hz
Inversion: AUTO (2)
Bandwidth: 8 (0)
High priority stream code rate: AUTO (9)
Low priority stream code rate: AUTO (9)
Constellation: QAM64 (3)
Transmission mode: AUTO (2)
Guard interval: AUTO (4)
Hierarchy information: AUTO (4)

Received event for frontend 0

Status for frontend 0 is now:
FE_HAS_SIGNAL (found something above the noise level) FE_HAS_CARRIER (found a DVB signal) FE_HAS_VITERBI (FEC is stable)
FE_HAS_SYNC (found sync bytes)
FE_HAS_LOCK (everything's working)

Reported parameters for frontend 0 are now:
Frequency: 714000000 Hz

Hi Tero,

I also have a Terratec Cinergy DT XS diversity but can't get it working with the Cinergy CI usb, do you have any idea how I can make it work? By the way, they showed on CEBIT a EeePC with linux on it with the Cinergy XSS. They also said that they will release linux drivers for all of their tv tuners.

Regards

Hi Tero,

By the way, they showed on CEBIT a EeePC with linux on it with the Cinergy XSS. They also said that they will release linux drivers for all of their tv tuners.

This was an eeePC with a Terratec Hybrid XS FM (Analog TV, Radio, DVB-T), Pinnacle also had an eeePC with a Pinnacle 330e (Analog TV and DVB-T) both Empia em28xx based.

Here's the 3liner installation instruction:

Thank you very much Markus!!
Do you also have any idea how to get the Cinergy CI usb working? I live in Holland and most of the channels are encrypted, so I need to use the Cinergy CI usb but I can't find drivers/information anywhere.

I bought this in the firstplace for my playstation 3 with linux on it, I knew that support for CI was hard, but they said it would work with eyetv. So I thought, if it isn't working on linux it will on mac with eyetv. Everything works on my mac with eyetv except the CI usb :(

Regards,

Derk

there's no support for this CI device at this time.
