[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 799798, member: 82144"] Okay. "Auto" in DVBViewer is probably "not defined" or "not set". For the 3650 people have been recommending 1.0.2.20, but I don't have the tuner so I can't confirm. Other drivers might be better - most people would not have tried the drivers from the other resellers. Take the example of switching to SAT.1 in your logs.
