titooo1 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I got a dvb-t usb stick which allows me to watch tv on Windows and linux, and after some reading I'm sure that something could be done for Mac. When I first plugged the dvb-t to my computer it was recognized as a keyboard... But after I installed the Equinux Tubestick software, the system profiler seems to be correct. That's what it says: AF9015: Versión: 2.00 Bus Power (mA): 500 Speed: Hasta 480 Mb/s Manufacturer: Geniatech Device ID: 0x9016 Serial number: 010101010600001 Manufacturer ID: 0x15a4 I read here that it should work if I change the device id from 0x9016 to 0x9015. Does anyone how to do that? Some people with the original Equinux Tubestick card reports that on system profiler: DVB-T: Versión: 2.00 Potencia del bus (mA): 500 Velocidad: Hasta 480 Mb/s Fabricante: Afatech ID del producto: 0x9015 Número de serie: 010101010600001 ID del fabricante: 0x15a4 So after reading the site I linked on 1st post and this info I'm pretty sure my card could work if I replace 0x9016 for 0x9015 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/134740-how-to-change-the-id-of-a-dbv-t-usb/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

failo Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Hi! I have a DVB-T card with the same PID 0x9016, tried Equinux Tubestick with no luck. Although The Tube, starts up after pluging in the stick but it won't find any channels! Wrote Equinux and the stick I have isn't supported (MSI DigiVox II is mine and supported is MSI DigiVox III). The strange thing is that Equinux doesn't install any kexts, EYETV does install kexts and one very important I assume EyeTVAfaTechHidBlock.kext, in Info.plist I could find my PID but the stick still dosn't work, don't know what to do! Please help! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/134740-how-to-change-the-id-of-a-dbv-t-usb/#findComment-971118 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychoDad Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 I have Afatech 9016 dongle too and would love to get it working under Mac! Anyone know how to change device ID from 9016 to 9015? I believe this might help to get it working! Thanks in advance.
