Hello,
What is the most stable DVB-S2 PCI card?
I've read through the wiki DVB-2 PCI section, but am not confident after reading this what the answer is.
Running Fedora Core 10 at the moment, but am willing to upgrade to 11 or perform custom patches to get something going.
No need for CI or DiSEQ support, just highly stable/reliable DVB-2 tuning/reception under Linux.
Any recommendations would be most appreciated!
If you don't need the CI part, The TT S2-1600 is a 2nd generation DVB-S2 PCI
card with great performance (supports Symbol rates upto 60MSPS), with support
out of the box from the v4l-dvb tree.
Regards,
Manu
I think I will try that card. Is the card tested to be working by many?

I have four of them and they work perfectly, but not out of the box from
the v4l-dvb tree. If it's patched with the patches posted on this list a
few weeks ago by Andreas Regel (or used with his repo at
http://powarman.dyndns.org/hg/v4l-dvb) it locks perfectly on every
transonder on 1.0W, without them it does not. I also have an S2-3200 and
a NOVA-HD-S2 but they can't handle all transponders symbol rates so I
highly recommend the S2-1600. Bought them for <€50 in Germany.
