Sundtek Support Forum

The problem with dvb-t2 and Sundtek MediaTV Digital Home III is related to the driver.

I had no luck with dvb-t2 at my friends house either, so then I tested the oldest driver from your download page. And with that driver both dvb-t and dvb-t2 worked as it should.


Then I tested a selection of linux drivers to figure out which work with dvb-t2 and which drivers don't work with dvb-t2.

All linux drivers, of those I tested, including sundtek_installer_150224.045219 and older work with dvb-t2.

All linux drivers, of those I tested, including sundtek_installer_150228.114609 and newer don't work with dvb-t2.


Can you please correct the code in the drivers so that a any new driver you release will work with both dvb-t and dvb-t2 frequencies.

If the signal strength is to low, how come it works directly in my lcd tv and with the pctv nanostick 290e?

I get 12 frequencies but not the frequency which is broadcasting in dvb-t2.

If I connect a new LCD TV which is DVB-T2 compatible to the antenna, I perfectly fine receive channels on the dvb-t2 frequency.

If I swap usb tuner and connect a PCTV nanostick 290e usb stick to the same vuduo2 I perfectly fine find the DVB-T2 channels if I search and I can also watch them with no problem.

If I then try to watch the dvb-t2 channels with the sundtek usb tuner on my duo2 (channel search done by pctv 290e), I can't get any picture.

(When I test I only have one usb tuner connected.)

Bug in drivers? Problem with hardware?

Hi.

I am trying to get DVB-T2 to work with my Vu+ Duo2 and a Sundtek MediaTV Digital Home III dvb-c/t/t2 usb tuner.

The duo2 is equipped with 4 internal DVB-S2 tuners (2 dual tuners) and one usb MediaTV Digital Home III tuner. I have BlackHole 2.1.5 installed. The usb drivers in the duo2 is installed with Sundtek Software Installer. The usb tuner is configured as dvb-t2 in Sundtek Control Center.

If I search for terrestrial channels which are dvb-t and choose dvb-t as search setting, the usb tuner discovers channels and I am able to watch those channels on the duo2. If I try to search for dvb-t2 channels and choose dvb-t2 or dvb-t as search settings, nothing is found on the dvb-t2 frequency.

If I list the available tuners in the duo2 I get this:

NIM Socket 4 has not complete information. Does this indicate problems with the usb tuner?
