What (UK FreeView) DVB-T Cards are Supported?

I would like to know which cards I can use here in the UK. Preferably under Windows & Linux?

Needs to be half height duel tuner card.


Thanks.

You'd be best posting in the uk forum, but I don't believe there are any low-profile dual dvbt tuners. Post in the uk forum, if it's available someone will know.

I've got a Nova-t 500 (dual freeview) The cards half height but the bracket is full height.

There are only two round holes in the bracket so it's probably replacable.

Hi pjwerdna

You say you have a Nova-t 500 card. Do you use this with sage and does it work OK. Was thinking of buying one myself but was not sure if it was supported in Sage.

I've only got the nova-t 500 on my test machine with 6.15 at the moment, but it seems to work quite well so far.

What doesnt work very well is the over the air program guide.

It only seems to pick up programs when recording something and only for the next couple of hours or so. This is a problem when there's nothing in the guide but "No Data".

Other than that recording works fine.

Thanks for that.

Not to concerned about the Over The Air EPG. I have the same problem with my TechnoTrend card.

I have been recommended a Black Gold twin tuner card, as being one of the best for quality of picture.

Anyone got any experience of this with sage?

It has standard BDV drivers available, so does this mean it should work ok?
