[QUOTE="LionHe, post: 1026003, member: 139237"] Hi everybody, I'm using mediaportal 1.3 on a windows 7 64bit on an intel i3220 p8h77m board with 8Gb RAM (4 dedicated to ramdisk) I'm having issues with a dvb-t stick which sometimes is not recognized by the system. Probably due to a loose antenna connector I sometimes have continuity error during registrations. As it is a chinese low cost product without support I'm looking for a replacement. As the antenna signal is probably low, I need a more sensitive tuner. I can easily get one of the following tuners (in increasing price order) hauppage wintv ministick (with a remote that i do not need) PCTV Dual DVB-T Pro 2000i DBG PCI. [SIZE=4][URL='http://www.hardwarepassion.it/terrestre-dvb-t-asus-my-cinema-u3000-hybrid-usb-dvb-t-telecomando-nero-bianco-.1.46.301.gp.26622.uw.aspx']Asus My Cinema-U3000 Hybrid[/URL] USB (which as an analog tuner that I do not need)[/SIZE] Hauppage HVR 900TV USB stick (which as an analog tuner that I do not need) Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-1700 MC PCIe (which as an analog tuner that I do not need) The specs do not state the tuner sensitivity. I fear that the low cost ones will still give me the same issues as the stick I already have. The price varies considerably, but I do not know if this is due to features that I do not need (such as the analog tuner) or to really better electronics. Can you give me some advice on tuner sensitivity, driver support, compatibility with mediaportal? Thank you for your attention, LionHe [/QUOTE]
