Making it Work

UPDATE Febr 2014
with newest drivers http://www.dvbsky.net/download/linux/media_build-bst-140128.tar.gz

Ubuntu 13.10 kernel 3.13.2 it compiles good and after
sudo rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/
sudo make install
It loads alright, i assume all lower versions will work too


Feb 23, 2014

Using the instructions on the DVBSky Wiki mentioned above both DVB-T, DVB-S and DVB-S2 were tested and found to work under Kubuntu 13.10 64bit with Linux kernel 3.11.0. I'm now receiving FTA 28.2 (UK/Irish channels) on SAT and Irish terrestrial (Saorview) via antenna.


Cable Working for Ubuntu 12.04

Jan 2014 Upgraded Ubuntu 12.04 to kernel 3.11.1 and used the media_build_bst_130806 from dvbsky support compiled it as in the manual . Cable driver loaded and tested, works fine with tvheadend and XBMC. i use oscam and smargo for encrypted channels. more info pe63@quicknet.nl

will test it with Ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10

Please feel free to correct this.

Update:

Works

Today I test this card with both DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T in Timisoara - Romania (DVB-T signal from Hungary - Szentes). I try to receive DVB-T2 signal from Serbia (Avala or Crveni Cot) but I don't receive any signal, maybe card doesn't work with DVB-T2 or my antenna doesn't receive any signal. I use VDR 2.1.2 with streamdev as back-end and VLC to watch channels and work very well, both adapter. I try w_scan and work.

I use latest driver from dvbsky website.
