Public bug reported: This bug is essentially the same as bug 460636, which was closed some years ago because the reporter's device got corrupted.
I happen to have the same device, and it doesn't work in 14.04 or 15.10. The kernel logs are the same: ============ Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev kernel: [ 187.576297] usb 1-1: new high-speed USB device number 2 using ehci-pci Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev kernel: [ 187.733736] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0ccd, idProduct=0043 Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev kernel: [ 187.733749] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=2, Product=1, SerialNumber=0 Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev kernel: [ 187.733758] usb 1-1: Product: Cinergy T USB XS Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev kernel: [ 187.733766] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: TerraTec Electronic GmbH Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev mtp-probe: checking bus 1, device 2: "/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:0b.0/usb1/1-1" Oct 20 12:49:39 Dev mtp-probe: bus: 1, device: 2 was not an MTP device Oct 20 12:49:40 Dev kernel: [ 188.784801] media: Linux media interface: v0.10 Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 188.810729] Linux video capture interface: v2.00 Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 188.862205] em28xx: New device TerraTec Electronic GmbH Cinergy T USB XS @ 480 Mbps (0ccd:0043, interface 0, class 0) Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 188.862214] em28xx: Video interface 0 found: isoc Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 188.862219] em28xx: DVB interface 0 found: isoc Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 188.862919] em28xx: chip ID is em2870 Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 189.033518] em2870 #0: EEPROM ID = 1a eb 67 95, EEPROM hash = 0x084c44df Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 189.033529] em2870 #0: EEPROM info: Oct 20 12:49:41 Dev kernel: [ 189.033537] em2870 #0: No audio on board.

I found this old mail thread which hints that the card is not supported, but it might be in case someone gets to hack the driver a bit: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg11546.html ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1507976 Title: DVB-T device Terratec Cinergy T XS not working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1507976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
