Hej,
I have a Mac Mini running Mac OS X Snow Leopard. In it installed the Sundtek USB stick and installed the latest Mac OS X drivers. I have enabled network mode and set it to DVB-T mode.
I have a Linux server on another machine in the same network. The Linux machine is virtual, running in a VirtualBox. I installed the latest stable Linux driver on it. I am able to see the IPTV server running on the Mac OS X server. I can also mount the driver to the IPTV server. Everything looks correct on both machines.
However, when I start a frequency scan on the Linux server it all goes haywire. The scan simply hangs. When I break the scanning process, and want to try again it hangs again and fails. I cannot even unmount the IPTV server, as that is also hanging.
When I look in the mediasrv.log file on the IPTV server (Mac OS X) it prints a line every second that looks like this:
xxxxxx: Auto Bandwidth Select
On the IPTV server, I cannot even shutdown the driver. It also hangs. I can of course kill the "mediasrv" process, and then start over again.
I also tried connecting via the network to my trusted Linux server (physical machine) running MythTV. The tuner is working very will on that machine. Of course I stopped the MythTV backend to ensure the DVB tuner was not in use. The same happens there, when I try to connect from the Linux server running in VirtualBox.
The next thing I will try is to connect to a server with the Sundtek tuner in network-mode from a physical Linux server. That should confirm whether or not I have misunderstood something or if the problem lies with a server running in VirtualBox. Or maybe I'm not able to scan frequencies through networking mode and need to tune straight into a channel?
Has anyone tried this setup or similar, who can shed some light on this?
Thanks in advance for your input.

Mac needs a driver update to be in sync with the Linux network support, however we are changing the driver to be more flexible for automatic mac updates in the future.
Best is to check back in a few days for a Mac update.

Hej,
Mmm... ok, sounds promising. which version of the linux driver is compatible with the current Mac driver? Just so I can do some experimenting to see if there is a problem elsewhere in my setup?

Just pick the same date from the driver archive.

Within the next days, it's being tested.
We're also changing the build system for MacOSX in order to release updates more often.

Updated Mac Diver will be updated on 9th July.

With a little bit delay the driver is updated now.
Networking from MacOSX to Linux/Mac/Windows works again.
