@JohnLBergqvist i'm having a complete pc lockup no errors in the journal, not having the drivers installed for 2 weeks haven't locked up since.

its a 6 year old card maybe its just dying. :(

@deadite66 what are the errors you're seeing? I'm having a situation where midway through recording (DVB-S2 - TBS6982), I'll loose signal ayet the file will continue playback, but it'll all be corrupt. Future recordings will all do the exact same, just all being corrupt, until I restart the PC.

Update: Upstream updated, patch no longer needed. @hellios Thank you, I patched the PKGBUILD temporarily on my machine with your source for 6.10 and I got it working with my card. Patch below.

@besegok733 in the meantime you could use the following fork of linux_media: https://github.com/hellivan/linux_media In this fork I fixed all the compile errors so that I personally can use it until upstream gets updated. Up until now I'm not experiencing any problems with my tbs6522h. However I don't give any guaranties.

swearchnick commented on 2024-07-24 09:37 (UTC)

@besegok733 Same as last time, we need to wait for upstream to update for kernel 6.10.

besegok733 commented on 2024-07-23 12:03 (UTC)

It gives error with 6.10.0-arch1-2

error: too many arguments to function 'i2c_mux_add_adapter' 1483 | ret = i2c_mux_add_adapter(state->muxc, 0, 0, 0);

anyone noticed any instability recently with these drivers?, i've been having random total lockups but since i removed the drivers and started using my old 2x "PCTV Systems nanoStick T2 290e" its been fine.

had been using my "TBS 6205 QUAD" for 6 years without issue.
