Well I won't worry about the numbers, then:-) > BER and UNC are 0, is something not working for you ? Yes, kind of. I thought 0 was good (I do get an occasional value for ber and unc, but they are very low and steady)? When I try to grab to a file using dvbstream I just get an empty file. I just read that I can grab to a file using tzap so I will try that tonight to test if my problem is with dvbstream. > Do not compare the "signal strength" with other cards (demodulators) > on your system. No problem yet - my HVR-1300 is lying around on the desk waiting for things to start working:-) Regards, Thomas > Patrick. > > On Wed, 27 Sep 2006, pontoppidan@xxxxxxx wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I finally got the drivers installed for this card thanks to you guys.
