[Official] DVB-T2 USB/PCI-E/PCI TV Tuner Thread

Of course that's not what I meant but at the very least they should honour their warranty.

What is the use of a card that only works for a few hours when all 4 tuners are in use at the same time?

the seller said bo pai ma. How to settle?

I think sooner or later the card will be cooked. If you can't wait for that to happen, maybe you can think of a way to cook it faster...then it's really pai, no more argument

Do you mean pics? No problem with my Draco stb for both HD and SD channels (including those on T1).

For my Philips 32" with T2 tuner, no problem with HD channels too. U always display 4:3 although default was auto, have to do manual 16:9. The other SD channels on t1 display 4:3. No sure whether it was the same before as I never watch programmes on T1.


Maybe somehow your screen display format changed to 4:3?

Can work leh, me using this source for my T230, other then HD-5 the rest can receive.

You are mistaken. Your tuner receives DVB-C signal from Starhub, if plugged into the SCV wall point. DVB-T2 is the standard for terrestrial broadcast. DVB-C is the standard used by Starhub for cable transmission.

That I understand, the thing is if I select "Cable" under Tuner Type it doesn't work, must select "Terrestrial" in DVB Viewer Pro.

Anyway, it doesn't matter as long as it for me. Also why discuss about TV set tuning when this thread is not all about them?

There was a problem of communication when you said "Can work leh" in response to PoloBoiBoi's post. I took it to mean that you could receive dvb-t2 from SCV point.

One difficulty I can see is that these tuners meant for pc are not certified to sg standards, particularly DVB-T2. Claims are claims. Until they are verified or certified, then we can be assured of compatibility. Same goes for DVB-C tuners. Some TV sets and tuners for pc that claim DVB-C capabilities also prove to be unable to receive Starhub channels.

I don't think the line is so thin. After all, the other thread is also about tuning, reception and related issues.
