I have been trying to get my nova-td-500 to work, but no matter what I try I get a substandard signal, with lots of errors. This is about the same as described elsewhere on this list. I tried this code (posted by Patrick Boettcher below), hoping it may be a little better but, so far, it has not improved things at all. I have even replaced the antenna on my roof, in the hope of getting a better signal, but I still get errors. I have tried the top, the bottom and both antenna connectors, but it does not seem to make much difference. Is there anything else I could try? I really want a working system again. (I replaced an old buggy card with this one, not knowing it would be such a problem) On Tue, 2009-08-18 at 10:54 +0200, Patrick Boettcher wrote: > Hi Paul, > > On Fri, 14 Aug 2009, Paul Menzel wrote: > >> I'll post a request for testing soon. > > > > I am looking forward to it. > > Can you please try the drivers from here: > http://linuxtv.org/hg/~pb/v4l-dvb/ > > In the best case they improve the situation for you.
