I defn agree, pcie/usb & linux is an incredibly powerful tool, but its not easy to get started in and is a steep learning curve. Id recommend a receiver as well and there are lots of incredibly knowledgable people here that can help with that. UDL

I don't know anything about that receiver. I don't use receivers, I only use computer tuners with Linux so I'm not the best to give advice about receivers. I'm sure someone else here could though UDL

Direct TV uses different frequencies and polarization. The dish and lnb won't work for fta I don't know the receiver so I can't comment on it. DVB-T2 is a European standard and isn't used in North America UDL

thats unfortunate :(

The windows driver doesnt support blindscan? I thought it did The linux driver defn doesnt, you need to enter the SR/system/modulation for it to lock. Im working on it though lol. That and a few other cards, only so much time in the day :) UDL

Thats great to hear ! you using windows or linux? The linux driver still needs more work, I have been away for the last few months and there is only so much I can do remotely. UDL

99w ku has ALOT of ACM/VCM, also ALOT of 16 and 32apsk. no DVB-S2x though I dont believe the 6528 supports ACM/VCM though, Im also under the impression that it only supports 16/32apsk in DVB-S2x not DVB-S2 but my box with it installed is currently offline so I cant confirm...

https://ubuntu-mate.org/raspberry-pi/ Support for wifi but no BT yet. I've always had excellent results with Ubuntu Mate images on my RPI. UDL

If you click on the service it does show the new price, just not on that page. It's an excellent device though. You won't get a better tuner for the price. UDL

It's showing $55.99 for me http://www.buydvb.net/tbs5980-usb-dvb-s2-tv-qbox-ci-p-25.html UDL

The TBS5980 is a much much better card and is currently on sale for $55USD which honestly is a crazy steel of a deal. UDL

Getting things into the mainline kernel isn't easy. It takes a lot of time. More then I've got :( so I just use a bitbucket repository, it's free and takes only a second, literally, to maintain. Others and myself are working very hard to get the state of Linux FTA and ATSC as good as windows...

If you are looking for a great card that supports everything up to ACM/vcm and only in some cases then I'd highly recommend the TBS 5980, USB, supported my TBS drivers and mine. Or the skystar 2 express hd, pcie, supported by my drivers. Neither are supported by the mainline kernel. They are...

try adding --depth 1 to the git clone command, it'll make it much smaller UDL

Looks like virtual box supports pcie sharing in most cases. The caviot that your motherboard and CPU both support vt-d is tricky to find a combo that does. UDL

Virtual box can use USB tuners, but not PCI or pcie cards. In Linux I use qemu to share pcie and PCI cards with the guest. You need to have a motherboard and CPU that support it though. So doesn't really help you. Not sure if there is a way to run a windows host and Linux guest and share a pcie...

The tbs 6983 drivers are almost there, but not quite. So close I can almost feel it, just need to find some more time lol UDL

Tune-s2 will move a motor from the command line. It requires my kernel but can be converted so it doesn't. If you are looking for something that is similar to tsreader and crazyscan all in one then you can use updatedvb with my kernel as well. UDL

I've always used spaun switches. I love them. But I wouldn't hesitate to buy anything titanium sells, he is known for bringing quality products to our hobby. He is also known for incredible customer service, r&d and genuinely supporting the fta hobby! UDL

Depends. Every bit helps when your working with 32apsk. My 1.8m pulls them in, but not with much buffer room UDL

99w ku has lots of acm/vcm short frames. I doubt it can lock those but it's worth a try. UDL

Awesome, thanks. Know the freq info? I'm currently in Saskatchewan forest fire fighting so I won't be able to tune in anytime soon lol. UDL

What satellite is it on? Their website honestly sucks. Broken links, old info, nothing concrete. UDL

I was wondering if that's the device bring referred to. I see it being sold as USB 3.0 compatible, even though it's a USB 2.0 interface chipset. All USB 2.0 devices are USB 3.0 compatible. UDL

What tuner is using USB 3.0? I haven't seen any yet, it's not required with the bandwidth satellite uses anyhow UDL
