I would like to believe I have correctly updated the drivers for neumo-drivers(!?!) on Ubuntu 24.04 and Kernel 6.17.3.
On this occasion, I am also providing the bug_report.sh requested by our colleague to check whether their installation is correct.
On this occasion, I also updated neumodvb. That is the first time two versions are mentioned simultaneously during an update of neumoDVB. To what extent versions 2.1 and 2.2 are the ones I tested neumodVB with remains to be seen by @deeptho himself.
Satesco,
?? There are no versions 2.1 and 2.2
Your driver installation seems to be successful (latest version)
The drivers have not changed, so there will be no change in performance (not better/not worse). What you describe about 6983 is notI still have reservations about this new version, which I tested with four DVB cards (6909se, 6983, 6902se, 6590), and it corresponds to the one mentioned by @deeptho. I have had so many surprises in this regard over time, thinking that I was updating the announced version, only to find that it was something completely different.
I chose to test 6909x with neumoDVB on a satellite at 96.5E, with low elevation and an uneven signal. The result is as expected, i.e., good.
I tested the other TBS cards on a satellite with a DTH signal.
The best result of this test, as is natural, is with the 6909x card, because, as is already known, @deeptho invested time and considerable creative intelligence to make it perform well and highlight the extraordinary capabilities of the STiD135 chip. That leads me to believe that the new driver version for Neumo-drivers is also the result of this endeavour.
Regarding the tbs6983 card, I had a little hope that blindscan would improve and yield better results. Unfortunately, of the cards tested, the 6983 disappoints me. I would say "again," but I know this is an unfair judgment on my part because @deeptho does not have this card, and that it is from an older generation. The strange thing is that, although he is right, cards with the STV091X chip are also the most widely used by both amateurs and professionals alike.
an issue with the stv chip but with the tuner chip.
And the stv091x cards are nice, but impossible to buy.
These cards are supported to what is possible: No constellation display.With the 6902se (6904se) card, you can achieve good results with the latest version of neumoDVB, even though some demodulator functions are not supported. Blindscan is fantastic, just like on Windows.
Installation is correct. :->Maybe another search algorithm would give better results on blindscan for the 6590 card on Linux. I'm not sure about that.
I added a test neumoDVB with USB 5927. Excellent.
I presented the tests of four tbs cards to get feedback from @deeptho on the installation of neumo-drivers and neumoDVB, whether the new neumo drivers are installed correctly, and whether the tests with neumodVB are the latest versions.
There are probably other users in my situation who are asking the same questions.
