just an update that i have this all working perfectly now. I'm happy with the purchase of the 6909. Amazing Card... in tvheadend - set each even tuner as a slave to the previous card. but, you must also disable OTA EPG for the slave tuners, as if they are doing an epggrab, tvheadend won't override t...

it seems the card doesn't not work in ESXI with the opensource driver. I hope this can be fixed. For now i have got it working in mode 1 on a physcial machine (the same one i was using with ESXI). Thanks to support for their patience. There is some problems with mode 0 but i believe this are softwar...

Thanks Steven, it's the identical problem as with the previous card. is anyone else using ubuntu 14.04 with this card? - (i'm andy from emails) here is the message received from you last time when i provided remote ssh from your IP. "Already login in and checked reinstall the latest open soure ...

ignoring my previous threads - and starting a fresh.. I'm on my second card as it was assumed the first one was faulty. i currently use a tbs twin tuner and a single tuner in a VM in ESXI. Using PCI Passthrough. Works fine. I decided to get a cheaper power efficient T20 dell server with quad core xe...

In Canada/USA there are about five commonly used types of LNBs. The three types I use are the C-band lnb (3 metre dishs), ku 10750 lnb (1.0 metre dishes...

Interesting! In your log it looks correct but your system does not see a satellite signal. Using your set-up, I get the same log output and I know Astra satellite is not on my side of planet earth. My next step would be to focus on receiving one vertical TP that you know is "Free to Air" ...

thanks for the reply. the cabling is fine, i've been using it with 2 other tuners. As a test, today i've reconfigured my setup with new cabling (took all day). I've now got an octo lnb for 28.2e and have put 4 of the inputs to the 6909 in Mode 1.... so i can use each tuner independently (all 8) and ...

i've been doing this on an esxi server without luck at all (using passthrough as ive done with my previous cards). to eliminate esxi as the problem i've installed a fresh ubuntu 14.04 on a physical pc done updates installed 6909 driver set mode=0 in tbs.conf installed latest tvheadend (unstable trus...
