I'm using a DuoFlex with a DVB-C/T dual tuner modul. How to build the latest drivers is described here (german only): http://www.vdr-portal.de/board16-video-disk-recorder/board85-hdtv-dvb-s2/113367-aktuelle-treiber-f%C3%BCr-octopus-ddbridge-cines2-ngene-ddbridge-duoflex-s2-duoflex-ct-cinect-sowie-tt-s2-6400-teil-2/ If you'r using Ubuntu or yaVDR, there's the linux-media-dkms package with this driver included. My DVB-C/T card is working here for months with no problems. Second dual tuner is ordered... :) Lars. _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
