I purchased this card a few months ago, primarily for the few HD channels available in the UK.
It's worked on and off for the most part, with it locking up occasionally and just needing to reload the application to get it working again. Recently though, this does not suffice. I boot the application (trying TBSViewer and DVB Dream) and they both have the video lock up shortly afterwards. If I use media center it may work fine, but recording HD channels is no good if I want to transfer them to play on other devices due to DRM types from BBC's HD broadcasts.
I must also comment, the other week when I tried to use the card, no programs would pick up a signal, even media center which usually works with the least amount of issues.
My question is, why is it constantly locking up (currently updated to the latest 1.0.4.9 driver as of today with same problems, previously using 1.0.4.8 since installation) for what seems like no reason? And will I encounter further issues where it seems to fail to send any signal to any DVB software?
