Hey guys, starting to get sick of my recordings clashing with the wife's, can anyone advise me if there are any compatible USB tuners for my solo 2? I am running vix 742 cheers :)
 
Hmm anyone tried any other USB tuners on vu boxes?? The sundtek one is £80 bit pricy for me :(
 
I am using a hauppauge wintv (if that's the correct spelling) on a Duo (not Duo2). I am based in Ireland so not sure of comparability for your local.

Can check model number later if you like?

I have two usb dvb-t dual tuners (as per my signature below). The Hauppauge WinTV Nova TD (DIB0700 chipset drivers) works well with both the Duo and the Duo2. The Avermedia Twinstar (AF9035 chipset drivers) currently works well with the Duo but is not detected with the Duo2. I'm not sure why the Duo2 doesn't 'get on' with the Twinstar (the Duo2 firmware is still getting lots of changes?). These tuners do not support dvb-t2.

Cheers

Dunno about bubbles, but I personally use a Hauppauge pctv nanostick t2 tuner... Works perfectly fine using em28xx drivers...

One of these:

Not sure what sort of restriction your expecting? But I too am in the UK, as well as many others on here who have used one of these, and we have no problems...

I think it was the first that allowed dvb-t2 reception, so probably why it was so popular in UK, so we could all receive hd channels from freeview with it...

From feedback on amazoom..PCTV Systems DVB-T2 290e nanoStick HD TV Tuner - Watch, Pause & Record Digital Freeview Hi Definition and Standard Definition TV on your PC. Stream LIVE TV to your iPad, iPhone, PC. (Electronics)
Installed into rear USB slot on VU+ Duo2 receiver. Worked perfectly receiving all transmissions from my transmitter (DIVIS) in Belfast and ALSO RTE services via my aerial for Clermont Cairn in County Louth (Rep. of Ireland) some 40 miles away...!!
Perfect reception of both T & T2 (HD) transmissions.

There is one new for £42 on flea bay

Anybody got the AverMedia A867 working on Vix?
Click to expand...

I understand that the A867 works for the more established VU+ models under Vix. However, I would be surprised if it works with the Duo2, since my A825 (Twinstar dual usb dvb-t) which is also based on the AF9035 chip doesn't. However, I don't have an A867 to try out.
 
So has anyone got a dvb-s or s2 USB tuner running on Linux boxes? If so which box and what image cheers :)
