The SF8008 Supreme looks like it has a great blindscan until it is closely examined. The SF8008 Supreme is logging transponders in a blindscsan that it cannot solve.

61 West-Cband is a good example.

Good afternoon 'suedschwede' and thanks for the post and upload.

Myself, have seen no improvement using the 'New Driver for Test' x 2 files for the Octagon SUPREME model.

12620 V 890 managed a strong lock at 8.0ºw on the 'SUPREME', sadly the other two low SR's failed to secure........whilst the same three were locked on the earlier model with the Silabs Si2166D tuners.

At the mo not able to test the 'SUPREME' with software using a below lock .dB reading, may show something!........perhaps when time allows you can show what yourself and others are finding using the 'Test' files.

Again, your interest is appreciated. :Y

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

I noticed on Monday when swopping receivers over that Openeight firmware (6.8) has not been updated for a couple of weeks.
There is a separate section for the 8008M, which I assume is for the mini.

So, since the 8008 Supreme version has a different front end, do either of the OpenEight versions work on the new box ?

Openeight is supposed to be based on OpenPLi, and is part of OE Alliance. Openeight supplies their own enigma2 part of the image, and OE Alliance supplies almost everything else. What is needed to run a particular brand of receiver is in OE Alliance, and not in OpenEight.

The driver files for the SF8008 Supreme and the SF8008 are lumped into one package. Most likely this was done as convenience, but it seems to work well. Everything needed to run the SF8008 Supreme was added to OE Alliance and OpenPLi months ago. So any enigma2 SF8008 image made by Openeight within the last three months should also work on the Supreme.

Updates are the responsibility of the image group. There are OE Alliance updates and there are individual image group updates. Whoever makes the Openeight image is responsible for updating it. The Openeight image group may feel no updates are needed right now, or they may simply not have anything to add at the moment.

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

Thank you for clarifying.

I wasn't faulting the firmware as it stands but if OpenEight is being promoted as official partner for the latest 8008 receiver then the update delay may possibly be down to refining the later front end without losing integrity of the older version(s).

What tuner/demod is within the 8008 mini?

There was a thread about this a year or two ago on OpenPli. I had a similar issue with the ATSC usb tuner being recognized as DVB-C. This problem has existed in various forms since Octagon released the SF8008, and this is why I say Octagon does not have "In House" engineers.

You were given a set of drivers to test but you never bothered to reply back or even comment whether they worked. That was the best time to get your problem fixed because someone that knew how could fix it. You missed a good opportunity!

You could try getting the drivers from the OpenSpa image and installing them in the image of your choice. That option will probably work if the problem is indeed fixed in OpenSpa. OpenSpa is closed source, but they can't really hide the drivers.

Drivers or comments on how to solve the problem have never been available (including for tests).

Yes, OpenSPA works very well as DVB-T (ISDB-T), except crash when changing tuner ... but this can be fixed. The interesting thing is that we have lock and video/sound.

Where do I find these drivers at OpenSPA to replace and test on OpenATV and OpenPli?

/modules/extra?

Thanks.

After replace some media drivers don't recognize anymore my dvb usb (/media/usb/siano/smsusb.ko, media/common/siano/*. I need reinstall siano.

I found this folder dvbcore/spa-dvb-core.ko, mabye missing this driver to work on OpenAtv and OpenPli.

No problem.

That was the best time to get your problem fixed!

The correct path is: /lib/modules/4.4.35/extra
Try copying the entire extra folder from OpenSpa image to the image of your choice. Reboot.

I tried, but OpenPli always show gray channels (all my boxes) and now, OpenPli 9.0, show as S2x too. I think your drivers work only for ATSC. See:
