I have one of these devices running under kernel 2.6.18 with MythTV (Gentoo). I am seeing a lot of artefacts and picture jitter while watching live tv. I suspect this has something to do with speed of USB 1.1.
I am able to reboot into Windows and test the device with the original device drivers under ProgDVB. Under windows, I see no such artefacts or jitter and everything appears to work fine. One thing that I noticed though is that the LED on the front of the device changes to RED when watching a programme under Windows. Under Linux, the driver loads correctly, but the LED stays GREEN. I am battling to find any documentation with regard to what this means.
Does anyone have any experience with this device who can point me in the right direction? Have you had similar problems etc? Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Hi, I would like to buy the same card to receive DVB-C from Virgin Media in the UK. It seems that this is the only DVB-C USB card supported by Linux (and one of the very few existing). I've sent recently a couple of mails to the mailing list trying to get some info about it, but they went both unanswered. I've found the card on eBay for 80 EUR, but I would like to know whether (and how) it works before proceeding. Btw, which cable provider do you have?
