the signal level in Linux is closer to the real one, not the one in Windows. in fact no signal statistics in percentage can be real, because the hardware measures that in dB and dBm and there is no such thing as dB and dBm to percentage conversion. that is also why you see those different levels - b...

nothing is damaged, you cannot compare "percentage" of the signal and snr, between 2 DVB cards with different hardware design, because neither signal, nor snr are measured in percentage in hardware and thus each has its own scale. on top of that currently the driver for 6909 has no any sup...

what you set as recoding type in your TVH? in any way, i suggest for test purposes and investigation of the problem to set it to TS. then if when you play that TS the problem you described has occurred, you can try something like: dd if=capture.ts of=output.ts bs=188*8*1024 skip=1 count=1 which will...

@marcosab

please, provide exact way how you're trying to scan. most likely there is some mistake there? are you sure there is signal to the adapter you're trying to use on your scan?

yes, exactly starts on line 189. the warning you get is harmless, just when you delete those lines the "buf" is not longer used, which is fine. however, i don't understand how that change can affect what you said on the message you sent me, i.e. the change makes the stick not working at al...

we're running some tests and we believe the IR receiver of the device (in some environments when it picks up other signals) can cause those problems. we will release update firmware that should fix the IR problem we found. in the mean time (that's for the Linux users, but there will be Windows drive...

i cannot comment for Windows - please, the Windows users to contact the support emails, if they didn't - that way they can get drivers with similar changes i suggested here. so, for the Linux users: if i understand correct there are 2 users with the problem and reducing the access speed seems to inc...

maybe, access speed is too high in some environment and triggers the problem. despite, you found few other cases, at least no other such complains reached me. anyway, please, try the following: open "linux-tbs-drivers/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/tbs5220.c" in any text editor and fine t...

Mark, the easy way is to patch TBS driver package to add support for that Terratec card - the changes are really minimal - you can find details here: http://www.tbsdtv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=8591 however, my attempt above failed according to the old user with such request and i still can...

the error messages means almost literal what it says - transactions between tuner chip on the device and the driver fail. also, obviously it doesn't recover from the condition, because the error happens over and over again and it needs reload/restart. so, no other 5220 users complained and that's wh...
