Try with other versions and with drivers that are shipped with the kernel. afaik tbs have closed source drivers which makes them suspect.

Yes, http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/dvblast/2.2/dvblast-2.2.tar.bz2 works perfect.
But I want to use latest git version, unfortunately I can't . Tried also with 12.04 and 14.04 Ubuntu.

Drivers comes from here
wget http://tbsdtv.com/download/document/common/tbs-linux-drivers_v140425.zip

when using closed source crapdrivers, you should ALWAYS build with THEIR headers.

CFLAGS="-I/path/to/tbsdiver-source/linux/include/uapi" make

EDIT: or

CFLAGS="-I/path/to/tbsdiver-source/linux/include" make

delends on dvb/frontend.h location.
