Hi Greg,
Do you have the possibility to try the device with the Hauppauge Windows
driver?
The linux driver is maybe not configuring the device optimally, because it
is more generic, whereas the manufacturer's driver is specifically for
this particular device.
There have been some updates some time ago to improve the sensitivity. Can
you try a more recent driver (v4l-dvb from hg or 2.6.25).
THe reported SNR of zero is expected: the driver does not set the
indicator to something useful.

If I follow the "Testing your DVB device" Wiki page, it works fine for
muxes 2 & 4 (the higher power ones), but can find no channels at all
on the other muxes - whilst my cheap £20 supermarket DVB-T STB works
just fine. Is it that
(a) USB DVB-T sticks are just less sensitive than an STB,
(b) The NOVA-TD is just less sensitive than normal for a USB stick, or
(c) Something else I'm completely missing.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'm kind of new at all this!
Also, I noticed that tzap always reports the snr as 0000 for those
channels it can find; that seems a little unlikely at best, to me!
Thanks,
Greg
