If you always have a good signal with your Nexus then the problem is not the lnb or cable. BTW, unfortunately the signal meter is unreliable for a lot of cards because they don't follow a standardized metric. It works for some cards, for others it's basically useless.

Other things to consider... Is the driver for your TeVii S464 known to be good/solid/stable? If not, the driver might be to blame. Is your card correctly detected by the driver or do you have to manually tell it which card you're using? Is the tuner on the card overheating? If the copper core wire was cut too short, it can cause inconsistent signal with some connectors, or no signal at all even if it works fine with a different connector.

Basically there is not enough information to know the source of your issue. You've got to do further investigation.

Hi,

This is probably not a VDR problem, but I guess that here are people who could help perhaps.

I use the femon plugin to check the signal, and there is only some 20% of the first line (red), when I test my brand new TeVii S464, and no image.

When I replace the card with my old "Technotrend/Hauppauge WinTV Nexus-S rev2.X", I get green signals and an image, so it seems that everything is fine with my dish.

Is there some configuration issue, or is this new card just broken? Or do I need another LNB?

TIA for any hints,

Hi. 20% it's poor signal. To check lnb you can put your hand between dish and lnb, signal must to change. If not, the problem it's with lnb. Regards.

Hi,

The firmware has to be loaded (strange, the card is sold without firmware??): "cp dvb-fe-ds3000.fw /lib/firmware"

I've found the solution here: http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/TeVii_S464
