Post subject: | hdhomerun firmware |
I need to upgrade my firmware, but am having troubles actually getting the firmware. How do I download it? When I run: hdhomerun_config <my device id> upgrade 20070512 It tells me "unable to open file 20070512". So my first guess was that the file wasn't there, so I tried to download through knoppmyth but have been unsuccessful. What do I need to do? Thanks! |

Did you download the firmware file first? http://www.silicondust.com/trac.fcgi/wi ... re_upgrade http://www.silicondust.com/trac.fcgi/wiki/downloads EDIT: Hit "Submit" too quick. You'll need to wget the firmware first, then supply the full filename (and probably the path to the file) /EDIT |

Using R5F1. I can play DVDs, sound works, everything else seems good except for the actual tv part. |

Off the top of my head I would double-check my labs.zap2it.com settings, as well as the Capture Card and Video Inputs settings in mythtv-setup. I know Martian has (had?) an HDHomeRun, as do others on these forums, so hopefully someone can help you out.

I'm pretty sure I've got all of that set up correctly. I haven't been able to find out too much about this problem, but what I have found seems to point to a software issue. I'm hoping I just missed something. Is there a way to manually enter the channels? Can I modify the channels.conf myself? |

Are you using QAM or ATSC? You find these directions? http://www.silicondust.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2317 With R5F1 will be able to skip a few steps because the HDHR is automatically detected and tuner/listing added during install. I used my Windows XP laptop to verify HDHR worked and install firmware, but I would assume the firware upgrade on Linux would require the file extension too? Code: hdhomerun_config <my device id> upgrade 20070512.bin

OTA ATSC as one input and Cox cable as the other. Yeah I followed those directions when I was setting it up. R5F1 found the HDHomerun on it's own and recognized it. If I run the dvb scan from a terminal I can get all the channels at 99%. So it finds them fine. But when I do a scan through mythtv-setup I get the "Timeout Scanning ATSC Channel ## - no tables" message. |

errors when scanning channels. Code: Timeout Scanning ATSC Channel ## -- no tables For what channel numbers? I get a whole slew of lines like that for channels above the highest allowed UHF channel (69). Apparently, MythTV tries to scan a bunch of illegal channels. At one point in history, UHF TV channels used to go up to 83, but channels 70-83 were reallocated to other uses many years ago. MythTV apparently doesn't know that. I just ignored the messages, and my HDHR seems to be working fine. |

I get them for every channel, OTA and cable. What exactly does the "no tables" mean? Is there some disconnect between the channels and the database? |

Oh God, Please solve this!!! I got my HDHOMERUN for Christmas, but have yet to record or watch a single thing on it. I've watched a few minutes via VLC before the HDHOMERUN stops streaming and needs to be retargeted. I've tried debugging it with the assistance of Nick/Jafa but to this day... no HD. It's really sad. My wife is BEGGING for a TiVo. |

Well right now I'm looking into manually creating the channels.conf. I've been trying to run the dvb scan script, but I'm getting this error: FATAL: failed to open '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0': 2 No such file or directory I feel like I'm so close to getting everything to work, yet so far! I guess the good thing is I'm learning a lot. But I'd sure like to be able to watch tv. |
