> The only other issue I have now is I cannot scan properly. I have dvb juice from a local cable provider. It is unencrypted. I believe it means I should use DVB-C configuration, but my card presents itself in MythTV capture card list as "Frontend ID: TurboSight TBS-6281 DVB-T/T2/C Subtype: DVB-T2". I've read the old drivers needed some extra tuning during compilation to enable DVB-C, but the new ones seem to be generic. How can I switch the card to DVB-C mode?

Hi Greg,

I suggest to upgrade to the current master version (pre-31) of MythTV.
You also need to upgrade your Ubuntu to at least 18.04 for this.
How to do the channel scanning for version 31 is described in the
MythTV Wiki, page https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Channel_Scanning.
Previous versions of MythTV cannot configure the delivery system
(DVB-T2 or DVB-C etc) of cards that do support multiple delivery
systems.

Kind regards,
Klaas.
