Is this a typo?

Happens when try to scroll up or down. I fix it by manually removing that last letter in line and now works as expected!

I built Neumo without issues with these packages installed. Thanks to @manzaba

typo indeed.

@deeptho,

Please check if you have T2-MI crashes with your card 6903X at 21.6E on 11402 V, 21900, 3/5, Pid 4095 PLP 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7.
When searching Blindscan, NeumoDVB finds and locks the signal, but when you have to lock the individual T2-MI streams, the app crashes every time, regardless of the PLP you use.
Only with the 4T2 Content Analyser can T2-MI services be locked and displayed, but with TSReader, not on this mux. Thanks.

Hello,

I installed neumodvb on a Manjaro system.

What are the first steps to test DVBS reception or please link to manual?

(TBS 5925 and 19E2 in Ku-Band)

Happy 2026

If you have installed neumoDVB and want to configure it to scan, work, and view TV/radio services, here is a how-to video for neumoDVB.

TBS5925 (STV090x demod) is not supported in neumodvb.

Indeed, Tuner 5925 USB is not supported by neumoDVB. However, the driver identifies it on the neumoDVB list of adapters-2.

But to test it with neumoDVB, I was able to obtain a spectrum, but it was terrestrial frequencies, which, of course, are not scalable.

Because the 5925 does not know how to scan with Neumo-tune, the only success so far has been to use tune-s2 and see the signal, which can be locked. That helped me stream DAB_Metropolitain in combination with Neumo-dmx, or Rai DAB+ stream.

Other combinations can likely be achieved with @deeptho's (partial for this adapter) driver. However, time does not allow me to do more tests and see what else works with 5925.

Just sharing this in case it's useful @deeptho

I've been trying to build and install the drivers on my system running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS (out of date, I need to upgrade when I get some time to work on the system properly!), and I was running into an issue where at the point in the install script where it tries to build solo6x10-v4l2-enc.o, it was running out of memory and giving a cc1 error.

I fixed this by copying the fix from this commit in the mainline drivers - Disable DVB_MMAP and VIDEO_SOLO6X10. · tbsdtv/media_build@f508ea4 (it seems like the fix is just to remove this module as unnecessary).

With that change in place, the drivers built fine without any issue.

Adam792 · Jan 19, 2026

With the modded drivers installed, it seems I can no longer use USALS with tune-s2, for example running -

Code:

tune-s2 11461 H 5780 -lnb UNIVERSAL -system DVB-S2 -usals -5.3 -lat 51.9 -long -2.1

does not move the dish any more. When I revert to the TBSDTV drivers, this works again as normal. I haven't been able to get the blindscan command line tools installed in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, the compatibility issues seem to mean that this just doesn't work properly.

I will update the system to a newer distribution, but I'd like to be sure that doing so will mean I can use USALS still? The server with the TBS6903X installed is headless, so my main use case would be using the command-line tools rather than neumoDVB itself. Remote desktop may be a possibility, but I will probably need to use something more fit for that purpose than Ubuntu.

I need an mpv/txt file. Can you upload it?

deeptho · Jan 29, 2026

I have just released neumodvb-2.2. Lots of bug fixes and a few gui improvements.
This release still works with the current neumo drivers. The next release will only work
with the new (not yet relased) neumo drivers.

Changes in version neumodvb-2.2

Enhancements

Updated libfmt.
Improved layout of service info on live channel screen.
Compact service info on live channel screen by not showing empty fields.
Show names of live channels on live channel screen.
Add epg update to live channel list and keep it updated.
Show sat_pos on live screen.
Debian installation instructions.
Use longer timeout for EIT P/F actual.
Improved logging of lof offset.
More informative debug message in jump.
Avoid showing yellow when mosaic panel is not fully filled with players (e.g. 3 mpv players on screen). Improved highlighting of mpv players.
On livescreen jump to start of list when pressing down key on last record and likewise for up on the first record.
Log full mux_id in epg records.
Preserve currently focused service when services are updated.
Add default epg to playback info.
Smaller font in info window.
Reduce subtitle font slightly.
Document trick play.

Bug fixes

Scan_target not properly initialized leadiing to EPG scanning sometimes not working.
Some H.265 streams not playing correctly.
Handle key change caused by tuning to nearby satellite.
Handle re-registration of the same pmt_pid, e.g. after loss of signal.
Incorrect assertion.
Stackstring: missing format_to causing corrupt debug message.
Calling stop_running hangs when task was not started, resulting in hangs when adapters are removed from the system (e.g., through driver unload).
Fix page down in live screen.
Incorrect display of live status.
Incorrect parsing of stream identifier.
Playback does not restart when switching to some h.264 channels (Altyn Asyr) if old timeshift buffer is present. This is due to incorrect parsing of h264 header.
Improved fix_mux for 52E pretending to be 53E.
Also run fix_mux on muxes from SDT.
Log messages instead of some python assertions.
DVB-C remove invalid assertions.
Ubuntu installation instructions.
Avoid assertion on !lock_state.locked_minimal.
Regression: blindscan fails, causing an assertion.
Show black frames before service change.
Cannot tune to other service if current service fails to decrypt.
Loading empty optional variable.
Reduce number of log messages when no valid key is present.
Do not try to connnect when softcam is disabled.
Properly detect and save empty softcam_server_port option.
Live_service not marked as no longer used at end of service.
Silence some debug messages.
Replace some error messages with debug messages.
Incorrect handling of mpv "end of file" when switching to different channel.
Incorrect reporting of pmt_change.
Include dmarkers in recording.
Fix absent dmarkers in legacy recordings.
Debug save code.
Improved return from reverse play; handle mpv_events.
Live_mpm: introduce dmarker and live_segment.
Introduce the concept of a livebuffer_segment to make mpv show the correct time even when stream discontinuities occur. Currently the only effect is that playback starts at the most recent tuning instead of at the start of the livebuffer.
Wait_for_updates changes.
Remove "mpv not ready" assertion.
Silence a warning on ComponentDescriptorTag.
Assertion after removing glcanvas.
Starting from LiveScreen, pressing E works the first time, but then pressing L and E shows live video overlayed in wrong position.
Correctly maintain focus on epg panel after switching live epg off and then on again.
Sometime live epg screen is filled with yellow background.
Do not create a 2nd mpv player when calling CmdTuneAdd if there if no service is active yet.
Subscription_id cleared when asking to play recording when service is being played.
When multiple subscriptions use the same service, then releasing one of those subscriptions erroneously stops the service and removes the live buffer.
Assertion when pressing enter on a recording on livescreen.
Fix 4/3 vs 16/9 aspect ratio detection code.
Avoid integer overflow in current_byte_pos.
Incorrect marker_offsets when writing to previously closed part.
Writing at incorrect place in stream buffer.
Remove assertion for ts_id==65535.
Simplify updating playback_info.
Incorrect assertions.
Make play_time always equal to relative start to first live buffer start.
Implement real_time_for_bytepos (not used as it updates slowly).
Improve move_to_live.
Improve get_play_time.
Fix set_audio_language.
Incorrect seeking to 0.
Playback hangs when reaching end of file.
Improved pmt handling during playback.
Sometimes audio languages not shown in toggle language dialog.
Live recording screen reacts to ch_order numeric entry and then backtraces.
Yellow background sometimes fills screen.
Debug timing.
Remove unneeded code.
Check for new recordings.
Oroperly set mm->livebuffer_start_time and mm->livebuffer_stream_time_start.
Allow language selection during playback. Partially works: playback stops, but selected language is remembered.
Recordings not showing on live screen.
Playback of recording not working with new mpm_cursor code.
Incorrect decoding of unicode DVB (e.g., RAI@5.0W).
Recording starting twice.
Incorrect num_bytes_safe_to_read leading to error after viewing for a long time.
Service restarted when viewing a service being recorded.
Avoid error messages on streams without subtitles.
Reduce verbosity.
Initial pmt set too many times.
Avoid some assertions.
Avoid stutter at startup due to trying to read too much data.
Ensure that initial_pmt is always noticed at playback; otherwise selecting audio and subtitle language may go wrong.
Compilation fix.
Crash when tuning fails.
Sometimes playback_speed message appears needlessly.

You probably have access to the EBU uhdSDR service(Ultra-High Definition Standard Dynamic Range) at 13.0E on 11631 H,9872. I would like to know if it is possible to get a clear picture from this mux.
I updated neumoDVB to v.2.2. Of course, it does not depend on updating the app to see this service clearly, but would it be possible to see this service clearly?
Thanks

deeptho · Jan 31, 2026

The stream seems to be corrupt (transport stream packet errors). The signal level should be "just enough",
so it may be the stream itself that is not right. I tried two different cards.

I believe it should have basic functions with v4l drivers, such as allowing tuning and DiSEqC protocols.
Thank you for your work and effort!

There were various old bugs that have now been fixed.

The reason to prefer not to install is a pragmatic one. It is explained in the readme
(but I fixed installation just in case).

You only need to update adn recompile the neumo-blindscan code.

Note that I do not use this very often and it is not well maintained.

Hi

I redownloaded and recompiled the neumo-drivers (updated about 15 hours ago according to github).
The blindscan repository doesn't seem to have been updated (github says the last update was 5 days ago).
I still get the "problem Setting rf_input ret=-1" error.

Indeed, master was not updated (my mistake). It should be ok now.
