Making it Work
As of October 2013 it is not working with Kubuntu 13.10 and the media_build_bst_130806 Drivers from DVBSky according DVB-C.
The driver is loading and detecting the card, but more then a successful channel scan isn't possible.
No TV program can be watched. DVB-S/DVB-S2 and DVB-T/DVB-T2 wasn't tested by me.
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
Update 25jan2014

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.
