DVB-T USB - MCZ - 08-03-2016

Hi,

Finally got my Pine64 2GB !
Running Android and everything seems OK.

I heard that it is possible to watch and record TV using DVB-T USB Dongle but the Pine doesn't seem to work with the one I have.
Are there any suggestions for a dongle that does work ?
Maybe there's a driver I could install for the one I have ?

This is the one I got from eBay

Thanks,
Mcz

Hi MCZ,

I've never used a DVB-T dongle but have you tried using TVHeadend with kodi?

Ok I have no experience with Android nor with dvb-t tuners.
But from Google I got the following YouTube link

And there is a driver for your dvb-t in the playstore.

But u still need an app that uses this driver and I didn't look into it, but Maybe it is only for the radio part of your tuner. Please check it out.

Edit:
The driver is for software defined radio [SDR] so not useful for tv

Edit2:
Which app did you try?

First things first ... Linux or Android ....
I have quite some experience in linux (have the same dongle together with some dvb-s on an odroid c1 here) but wouldn't know the first thing about android and dvb
If you're using linux .... type 'dmesg' at a terminal right after you plugged the dongle in .... we should be to help you out
