Hi Guys, I decided to move from a win7/mediaportal to a ubuntu/kodi environment, but the installation is driving me crazy. I hope someone can help me.
Last night, I finally got TVheadend and Kodi running after 4 hours struggling I finally could see watch SAT TV in KODI. This morning, after booting the pc and starting KODI--> TV, when I selected any channel I got the message that no adapter is available.
In the tvheadend configuration in the browser I see, that the tv card is updating the EPG, however, I cannot start the channel preview there, after Loading... for a while, I receive the message "an unknown error occurred" and when checking the TV adapter, in the configuration tab I discover, that for one of the 2 tuners of my twin card the line where I can select the unicable I SAT parameters has disappared!. I believe, the error message has to do with that? Can someone tell me first, how I can get the bloody entry tab back? I already had the same behaviour during the first installation yesterday. Re-installing the TV tuner drivers did not help at all. I solved the problem by re-installing Ubuntu completely, but I do not intend to re-install the operating system every day.
This installation is quite frustrating, but I hope that somebody can help me to get KODI running in a stable way...I wouldn't want to go back to Windows.
A couple of details about my environment:
TV-Tuner Digital Devices Cine S2 V7
Unicable/SCR LNB
Ubuntu 16.04
TVheadend 4.2.4.-3
KODI 17.4
I am quite a beginner with Linux guys...please "go easy with the explanations"
