[QUOTE="huve, post: 957411, member: 389517"] I would check what is the situation of linux drivers for Astrometa stick. When it came to market it worked in linux only in dvb-t, not in C or T2. It has two demodulators, a RTL2832 for dvb-t (and sdr) and a Panasonic for C and T2. The stick works fine Windows. There is a german/english discussion about this stick in dxtv.de, but you might need register to see the pictures.
