Hi,

I bought a dvb-T tv card thinking I would get freeview channels. I actually get some digital channels, but they're not part of the freeview list (I have sky news, e4+, uk history and a bunch of other crappy channels).
Any idea why I can't get freeview channels with my card (avermedia Hybrid+FM cardbus).

Thanks

Actually I was wrong !!
I just checked freeview website and the channels I have are part of the freeview package.
The only problem is I don't get all the freeview channels with my card... could it be because of my antenna? I'm using an indoor (crappy I guess antenna).
Anybody experienced the same issue?

    Almost certainly due to your indoor antenna - DVB-T requires a good signal, otherwise you will get nothing at all. I assume that you cannot view these "missing" channels with the Avermedia TV application either?

    Well so far I was unable to use my tv-card with mediaPortal... will have to look into this problem soon.
    So yes I was unable to view the missing freeview channels with the avermedia tv application.
    I will try my outdoor antenna to see if it's better.
