AW: Terratec Cinergy T PCIe Dual

Hi,
I've just bought the card a few days ago because there was just one slot left on my board.
Changing channels is really fast and the quality is great for hd channels as well as sd.

I can really recommend it and using it with Mepo takes me 5 minutes (just mapping the channels from the already existing card to the Terratec).

But:
It is a Dual Tuner only for DVB-T. I first thought this will also work with DVB-C but this was a missunderstanding from there ambiguous specification. With DVB-C you've just got one tuner and not a "dual" one.

Thanks MM for welcoming and the nice answer!

As you can see I'm not a profession at digital media. I used an analog tuner long time ago, and it was HW dependent which resolution it can record (I think).
As for the PCIe x16: I think I rather buy a mATX mobo instead of mITX, so I will have a PCIe x1 for the card!

It's not a dual C tuner?!
Oh, my... your post worth a fortune! I need a dual C tuner, than this means I have no other choice left but DD Cine V6. Buying 2 Terra would be more expensive I think.

Girls and guys thank you!

Hi again,

It's not a dual C tuner?!

You're right! It isn't a dual DVB-C tuner. Just DVB-T is dual and not! DVB-C.

I have no other choice left but DD Cine V6

I've also read about this one (and it seems to work well and is a little bit cheaper):
TBS 6280 DVB-C & DVB-T2 PCIe FTA Twin, Low Profile PCI: Amazon.de: Computer & Zubehör

Thanks items for the suggestion. I still rather choose DD, it looks better for me. It's very, very expensive indeed...

The best tuner i ever seen was from digital devices, but prices are 130-170 euros for dvb-c tuners.
DD Cine V6 is best money can buy.
Some users report problems with TBS tuners.

Are you sure that this Terratec is not dual on dvb-c? Because terratec told me so.

It somehow sound weird anyways that the card can tune on two DVB-T tuners bu not on DVB-C...should make no difference from the technical perspextive.

Yes I am. I've installed the driver and there's just one DVB-C Tuner to be selected but two DVB-T. Thats also what Terratec told me when I asked them about that.

Ok, I finally bought this card. I also confirm that it has 2x DVB-T and 1x DVB-C tuner.
Not worth to use the CD, because it has an older driver on it, which does not support the DVB-C tuner, so download the latest!

I was able to record all TV stations on one transponder frequency! And watch one of them of course! This is good news. I think I'll buy another one or a C PCI HD.
