I doubt if it would work with SageTV as Sagetv cannot even Identify my dual tuner WinTV-dualHD TV Tuner it only Identifies it as 1 tuner. SageTV hardware support has not been updated in years.

One can never tell in tel one try it, But on up side of thing at lease there are linux drivers unlike with hauppauge which always seem to take for ever.

That's more a problem with how the dualHD identifies itself from driver to tuner interface as a single device that can be accessed more than once. Compared to how the PVR-500 and 2250 identified as two completely separate devices. Without knowing how this TBS device is structured, there's no way to guess if it'd work or not.

TBS quad dvb-t2 tuner shows as four tuners in SageTV which might offer some hope.

I believe this is more the way sageTV Identifies the tuners as WMC NEXTPVR and mediaportal have no problem Identifying both tuners.

So if the TBS6205 DVB-T2/T/C Quad TV Tuner works then there no reason why the TBS6704 ATSC/ Clear QAM Quad should also work

Money is tight, so I am afraid to spend the money for the experiment. Was hoping someone already had it. Maybe one day I'll give it a try.
