What this means is that you can select and configure the adapter, but when you attempt to play or stream a channel, you will receive an error from the Tvheadend HTSP client stating “signal not found.” The big takeaway from my troubleshooting is that, although Tvheadend correctly identifies the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-850 USB TV tuner, only the USB bridge and decoding driver are included in the default build of OSMC. Details regarding those procedures can be found at numerous other sites/forums. This is provided that you have already scanned and added Muxes, then configured Services and Channels. All that needs to be done is enable each tuner and select a user defined network in the Tvheadend web config. Sudo wget -O /lib/firmware/dvb-fe-xc5000-1.6.114.fw Īfter a restart, both tuners should be available.

Rather than use the firmware-linux-nonfree Debian package, it is best to install the model specific firmware to /lib/firmware via shell: Tvheadend identifies it as Auvitek AU8522 QAM/8VSB Frontend : ATSC #0. The 850 requires firmware to be installed. Tvheadend DVB Inputs – TV Adapters recognizes it as LG Electronics LGDT3306A VSB/QAM Frontend : ATSC #0.

The 950Q works out of the box, drivers and firmware are included in the default OSMC build. Since I did not find any postings on the HVR-850, I thought I would share my experience. Presumably this will apply to all current and future builds of OSMC. Just a brief HowTo for configuring a multi USB tuner setup on the Raspberry Pi3 running OSMC version osmc-rpi3 4.4.27-7-osmc.
