@septigation As @Sunday pointed out, the package installs the TBS drivers and firmware in such a way they they do work in current ArchLinux. However, depending on your specific TBS hardware and application, this might not mean that everything just works. 1) Some TBS hardware, especially some USB types which require firmware, don't get detected well by udev and need to be modprobed manually. 2) Do you have v4l-utils installed? Some apps, such as older versions of VDR, need the v4l-utils package to get the hardware to work properly. 3) Try running a simple "sudo depmod" manually outside of the install script and see if this makes a difference.

I disagree: [root@bigbrain alex]# uname -a Linux bigbrain 3.16.4-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Oct 6 08:22:27 CEST 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@bigbrain alex]# lsmod | grep tbs rc_tbs_nec 12396 0 saa716x_tbs_dvb 71088 1 tbs6618fe 17177 1 saa716x_tbs_dvb [...] And the card works just fine...

Bad news: Driver package v140707 is incompatible with 3.16 kernel tuner-types have been merged into V4l tree so TBS will have to update their V4L lib's. If you want to use linux 3.16 either wait for a new TBS driver package or try: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tbs-unofficial-dvb-drivers-git/
