Like Glenn, I can report that the nanostick has been stable over the<br>
past few days, making a dozen or so recordings, including a number of<br>
simultaneous recordings across two channels and simultaneous,<br>
overlapping recordings on the same channel, with both DVB-T1 and<br>
DVB-T2.<br>
<br>
I haven't noticed the audio problems others refers to, but I haven't<br>
done much watching yet (the box has been running headless). I've just<br>
bought a new HD television so now I've got a way to start watching.<br>
<br>
My initial scanning problems were to do with broadcast signal<br>
strength. With the supplied wire antenna the DVB-T1 channels scanned<br>
but not the HD multiplex (signal too weak?). When plugged into the<br>
coax splitter from my roof aerial the HD channels were picked up but<br>
the SD ones were lost. (signal too strong, I presume).<br>
<br>
The coax splitter that I have provides a non-adjustable gain, which<br>
has always produced too strong a signal for the analog aerial input to<br>
my CRT TV, but was OK for my two PCI Nova-T cards, and is also OK for<br>
the DVB tuner in my new TV. However, it is apparently too strong for<br>
the nanostick T2 290e.<br>
<br>
With the output from the coax splitter running through an attenuator,<br>
the nanostick receives both DVB-T1 and DVB-T2 signals fine.<br>

</div></div></blockquote></div><br><div>I have had similar signal problems with DVB-T tuners. I have 1 of each variant of the Hauppauge DVB-Nova-TD USB sticks. One required the signal booster but this meant the other was swamped and received nothing. Ended up with a similar setup with the multiple output booster then feeding into a variable attenuator for the other USB stick and all work fine.</div>
