Dear Linux-DVBers,
I now own two USB DVB-T receivers (dongles): a Gigabyte U7000-RH and a
digitalNow tinyUSB2.
I use them on my Kubuntu 7.10 workstation.
I've had the digitalNow for a year or so and it has been working fine
(and easy to get going) with kaffeine except that I couldn't receive SBS
reliably (in Adelaide, Australia) although I was able to tune to it from
time to time. With the Tour de France starting next week (coverage
broadcast by SBS), I took a punt yesterday and bought a Gigabyte
U7000-RH and, yes, it too was easy to get going, and, luckily, receives
SBS nicely -but it can't tune to Channel 7 at all!
My kaffeine installation now has a channel list that covers all the
local terrestrial TV stations. If I connect the digitalNow device, I can
watch 2, 9, 7 & 10 and if I connect the Gigabyte device I can watch SBS,
2, 9 and 10.
I'm presuming that means that by channel tuning data is OK. I don't know
whether it's relevant, but I notice that SBS seems to be the highest
frequency local station and Channel Seven seems to be the lowest. There
seems to be a problem with both devices at the opposite ends of the
frequency range.
Any suggestions? (other the juggling the two devices!)
bye
