Phoenix reader with Gbox in linux

**marvin**

Heeelp..

I have a dual pheonix card reader with two serial ports, so each reader has only one port. One of these I have plugged into /dev/ttyS0, the other into /dev/ttyUSB0.

Newcs I have got working, but only on the USB cable, it doesn't seem to play on the real serial line. I'm willing to accept that the cable or port may be dodgy.

NewCS config

Code:

However, gbox just won't play..

I get:

(I like the use of F to use /dev/ttyUSB0 instead of /dev/ttyS1)
(the little red light flickers btw..)

Code:

# Option for VDR (Linux X86) only
# xx yy ; xx = dvb-s Card nummber
# xx yy ; yy = comport to use by that card
#V: { f0 30 }
W: { 00 00 }
F: { 44 } /dev/ttyUSB0

It's a Sky UK NDS FreeSat card I am testing with.

Gentoo Linux - Nexus-s, Linux VDR - 2 x ATSC HD cards, Hauppauge PVR 500 for analog US Cable, 3 x Hauppauge MVP's running Vomp on VDR, UK TV on IPTV.

Not a single sat dish at the moment. :-(

Try instead of ttyUSB0 ttyUSB1. Because I think both readers use port 1 and USB always precedes serial.

Not sure I can, I only have one dongle. It's handled by udev.

Ok, just linked /dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/ttyUSB1

and tried again.. No joy

Try instead of ttyUSB0 ttyUSB1

**marvin**

? I did... At least that's what the ln -s did..

My usb serial cable is configured by udev and forced to be /dev/ttyUSB0.. I can change the config to /dev/ttyUSB1, but it won't find anything as the device won't exist until plugged in.

Either way, it still isn't working.. :-(

This line enables all possebillities.However Ive tried in vain to get gbox working with a USB connected phoenix so I think youll only get the serial to work.There are gbox_cfgs with F: { 44 } /dev/ttyUSB0 lines but after searching high and low for confirmation that this works Ive com to the conclusion that gbox doesnt support USB connected phoenixies.I spent a couple of weeks trying to get it to work but gave up and baught a serial phoenix wich is working great.If someone has info on this please share that info.

**marvin**

I have a serial pheonix.. I just don't have a working serial port.. Oh well...

Maybe it's the cable... I will investigate a bit more.

**gfather**

well i think i know the answer .. pleas pm me or go to chat for further help ;)

Any news on this guys ?
I am facing similar problems with a viaccess card...:-(
Have you managed to get anywhere?

I am using USB port with a Prolific (PL-2303 chipset) adapter and
a serial Phoenix reader....

It's just driving me nuts....

Thanx,

**marvin**

Eureeka!!!

Code:

V: { F0 0A }

# set stay alive ping time in seconds (default is 300)
# F: { A0 } 300
F: { 43 } /dev/ttyUSB0
F: { 58 } 01 // nds 5.7

With the jumper set the opposite way to what newcs wants on the board itself...

Code:
