hi, i have a happauge HVR4000 and all works fine, analogue TV and DVB-S was tested by me so, all would be fine except the fact, that there is DVB-S2 support noted on the wiki http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-HVR-4000 site. so basically my question is, what makes you think, that HVR4000 is able to play DVB-S2 streams when it doesn't?! so I have tried this out, run w_scan which printed me also all the DVB-S2 channels out and provided me a tuning list (channels.conf) and then I tried to tune in w/ "szap-s2 -S 1 -c ~/.mplayer/channels.conf ZDFHD" the output is: -------------- zapping to 1 'ZDFHD': delivery DVB-S2, modulation 8PSK (i tried QPSK as well) sat 0, frequency 11361 MHz H, symbolrate 22000000, coderate auto, rolloff 0.35 vpid 0x17de, apid 0x17e8, sid 0x2b66 using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' status 01 | signal dbc0 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | status 03 | signal db40 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | status 01 | signal dbc0 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | status 01 | signal dbc0 | snr 0000 | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | -------------- so, and that is basically the same as w/ my old NOVA-S CL. the fact, that he is not able to get a lock tells me, that there is no DVB-S2 kind of thing on this HVR4000 and I bought my card for nothing, except that now I have a newer card, w/ FM and analog TV, maybe DVB-T as well, but i tested that one as well and it doesn't work as well, so I wouldn't say that that card is able to do DVB-T as well. there are USB sticks, like my VOLAR-HD or my Equinox Tube, that ones do DVB-T really, but not this HVR4000, so it is a 3in1 card w/ DVB-S, analog TV and FM, at best, as long as I don't know if FM works. here some data (first lspci -v and then dmesg): 05:02.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc.
