DVB-T2/T or DVB-C PCIe Twin Tuner card from DVBSky. Drivers in kernel 3.19.

Features

  • Dual/Twin Tuner input, Belling Lee Connector (Cable or Antenna)
  • PCIe x1
  • Low power
  • Si2168-A20 demodulator
  • Si2158-A20 tuner
  • Conexant CX23885 PCIe bridge

Driver and more

  • Kernel 3.19 contains the open-source driver. Use media_build to build it for the earlier kernels.
  • See DVBSky wiki page for closed source driver. Execute build_{x86|x64}_dvbc.sh for DVB-C driver!

Firmware

The open source driver requires firmware for both demod and tuner.

The easiest option is to download them from the OpenELEC firmware collection using the links below.

Place the firmware files under /lib/firmware.
