That makes a lot of sense. I had the same issue initially with the plus, where I would only receive signals if the antenna was near the window.

The trick was with bad reception indoors.
I went testing to the balcony and framedrop dissapeared,
and I get a clear picture.
It seems that the Antenna is too weak in my apartment
to have a clear signal.

Kind regards,

Hello Oliver,

Thank you for your hint.

I have written up a WIKI page for this device, which hasn't been
written earlier.
I am willing to test the device further, if any of the devs can give
me further hints
for that. It's still not in a full working mode. I mean video is
somehow partially visible
with VLC, but I am no expert in fine-tuning the device.

The wiki page is located at
http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/ASUS_My_Cinema-U3100_Mini

I will update the information there, if I will receive any further hints.

Kind regards,
Jan

Unfortunatly I am not familiar with the dib0700 device, so not sure if you
need firmware (I assume so, check linuxtv wiki on any dib0700 device.

To test the device in its most basic level, I think w_scan is the best bet,
as it works without any other extra files.

Hi Oliver !

Thank you for your quick response.

I assume that mine is a non-plus version.
Do you know how I could proceed tuning the channel list,
which I could then use in the combination with MPlayer ?

Kind regards,
Jan

Hi Jan,

That page is probably not supported by linux-media and shows support
(currently not working afaik) forthe U3100 mini PLUS. yes, minor
difference
in name, huge difference inside. The non-plus is a dib0700 based device,
whereas the Plus is a af9035 based device. The non-plus should work out
of
the box on most distro's.

Hi !

I have ASUS U3100 Mini USB Dongle and I would like to watch DVB-T
TV streams with it on Debian. The dongle when its plugged in lights with
the green light. Performing "(dvb)scan" segfaults.

I (partially) followed these guides:

http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Asus_U3100_Mini_plus_DVB-T

I am using debian testing and it seems the device gets somehow
recognised:

After this I used the guide at:

Which resulted into:

So I seem to be stuck here.

I please for some guidance here, thank you !
