Ho ho ho

It seems the 'lsdvb' is what made the device unusable after re/boot.
Of course this applies to kernel >= 3.19.x
The device has to be unplugged and after a minute or two plugged back to be usable again.

It seems the 'lsdvb' is what made the device unusable after re/boot.
Of course this applies to kernel >= 3.19.x
The device has to be unplugged and after a minute or two plugged back to be usable again.

... but I am pretty sure actual root of cause something else. Likely your second tuner chip is on reset/powered off and due to that it does not answer. I have almost similar device which works (DigitalNow TinyTwin).

Maybe I should try to test which are that tuner GPIO reset lines... but I am a bit lazy :/

Is a beer keg enough as bribe? :)
Just do not say that you drink juice.

After the reverting of all changes
http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/media_tree.git/log/drivers/media/tuners/mxl5007t.c

device now survives both, 'lsdvb' and rc kernels.

Besides, despite all this, this device is already not working at its full potential.
One of the tuners can withstand a few hours and then hangs.
After that, in the application e.g. vlc is needed to select the second tuner and so continue to use the device. So this is actually a "single-seater" as Formula 1.
Vroom vroom!

device now survives both, 'lsdvb' and rc kernels.
Besides, despite all this, this device is already not working at its full potential.
One of the tuners can withstand a few hours and then hangs.
After that, in the application e.g. vlc is needed to select the second tuner and so continue to use the device. So this is actually a "single-seater" as Formula 1.

Thanks.
For now, I have noticed, unlike before the EIT program data are updated in full and promptly.

I'll be back in a week.

No need to continue to test this patch because this is repeated:

Re: dvb_usb_af9015: command failed=1 _ kernel >= 4.1.x

If it is not taken into account the already known problem of unreliable operation of the first tuner of the two, the device works reliably within kernel 4.0.4 with mxl5007t.ko reverted to
http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/media_tree.git/commit/drivers/media/tuners/mxl5007t.c?id=ccae7af
that is in the same state as is in the longterm kernel - 3.18.14,
which is in correspondence with the aforementioned results.

This is the conclusion after extensive testing,
commitas 5. 4. and 2. produce:

mxl5007t_soft_reset: 521: failed!
mxl5007t_attach: error -121 on line 907

causing the device completely unusable - AF9015 DVB-T USB2.0 stick

Do you need a patch to revert to commita 3. or 1. - again for the third time, or you have a better solution?
