I have a technotrend dvb-c rev 2.1 card and I have had lots of problems. I don't know if the dvb-s cards is anything like mine or not. I had lots of problem with bad reception, after lots of trouble with it and trying to find the cause of the problems, I got a lot better reception after I switched the powersupply. So it seems atleast my dvb-c card was extra sensitive to bad power supply. > > How is the interface to the mpeg2 decoder? is it possible to > decode any > mpeg2 stream or does it only accept data from the card itself? I can play mpeg1 and 2 files with test_av_play that comes with dvb-apps package and have them outputed via the video and audio outputs from the dvb card.
