Moikka,

The reason is that Avermedia has programmed wrong tuner ID to device eeprom. For one IT9135BX device I have it is set 0x38 (whilst Windows driver programs 0x60), no idea how others. That same issues was for AF9015 too, where I added USB ID based overrides for certain Avermedia models. I think I will do same for AF9035 driver.

regards
Antti

Dear David,

The RF performance of ITE9137 BX + IE9133 dongle is a little worse than single 
tuner.
As our test resolut, the RF performances should be -80db and -82db for dual 
tuners and single tuner.
There is an issue in hardware design if the reception capability is too worse.

We don’t need to change the firmware for dual tuners. I think there are some 
problems in af9033 driver of kernel v3.15.

BRs,
Jason

Hey Jason,

Do we know if that RF problem exists in 3.14.5? Using the IT913X driver?

I have a Leadtek Winfast Dual Dongle (0413:6a05 - dual usb - ITE9137 BX + 
IE9133) which is being extremely painful (random signal locks, tzap reports ok 
signal strength for one tuner but poor for the other, random signal dropouts 
(ie working fine, then progressively getting more and more blips in 
visual/audio from stream)).

I dont think its signal strength related because 3x Leadtek Winfast Gold 
dongles (AF9013) all work (until they stop tuning and cold reboot is required)

I suspect something about the firmware is at fault, I have tried to talk to 
Antti - but he must be busy. I have tried three different dvb-usb-it9135-02.fw 
firmwares, and they don't seem to make a huge difference (newest doesn't create 
/dev/dvb bits)...

Does a BX (v2) 9137 require yet another firmware image?

If I use the AF9035 kernel driver it doesn't tune at all. But does detect the 
tuners...

Sorry to threadjack - but seeing your @ite.com.tw I thought I would ask while I 
can :)

Regards
David

There is a RF performance issue in the af9033 driver of kernel 3.15. It is no 
problem in the it913x driver of kernel 3.14.
There were some initial sequences not correct after the it913x driver was 
integrated into af9033 driver.

Subject: AF9033 / IT913X: Avermedia A835B(1835) only works
sporadically

Hello list,

I have an "Avermedia A835B(1835)" USB DVB-T stick (07ca:1835) which works only 
(very) sporadically. It's pure luck as far as I can see.
I can't reproduce how to get it working. There are no special steps that I can 
take to guarantee that it'll work once I plug it in.

I'd rate my chances of having the device actually working between 5
and
10 percent.

In the log everything looks fine, apart from the messages at the bottom about 
the device not being able to get a lock on a channel.

Reception here is really good, so there's no problem with signal strength. When 
loading the device in Windows 7 64 bit it always finds a lock.

Has anybody any idea? Thanks for any suggestions!
