> Can I ask you a few questions about the TD stick, > > 1. How is reception compared to the nova-t 500 I think it is pretty similar, though I don't have any exact numbers to give you at this time. I'm going to do an overhaul of my cabling (with a better quality amplifier and splitter); I've got a small aerial antenna which is partially blocked by trees that feeds my four inputs and the current splitters and amplifier are pretty tacky, so any differences in reception is likely to be more dependent on the cabling than the tuners. I'll try to get back with better numbers when I have better surrounding equipment. That being said, depending on which multiplex I tune to I have very varying reception on the Nova-T 500. My reception on mux 1 (with SVT channels) is usually between 70-80% according to MythTV (with the internal LNA enabled), while mux 5 (with the local channels) is varying from 40 to 60%. > 2. What firmware do you use for it I now use the 1.10 firmware. Using the 03-pre1 firmware I had similar problems to yours; dvbscan found plenty of channels but MythTV failed to get a lock. // J _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
