I just tried that. I couldn't get it to work. However, I also couldn't 
get the tuners that do work to work with VLC, so I must be doing 
something wrong. I'll look into that when I've got a bit of time.

Thanks for the VLC tip John. I didn't know about that. I'm sure there 
will be a tutorial online that will help me to get VLC playing the DVB-T 
channels, then I can try the DVB-T2 tuner again.
