Hauppauge WinTV-Dual DVB-T2. Any issues? - MrBfJohn - 2016-12-28
I currently have the August DVB-T210 usb Freeview HD tuner, and I'm getting really sick of how frequently it decides it's not going to work. Apparently it's a very common driver issue, so I've decided to upgrade. So far the best option seems to be the Hauppauge WinTV dual DVB-T2.
I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this tuner?
If it helps it'll be connected to an Intel NUC 2820, running the current MVC build from Afedchin on Windows 10.
Cheers in advance
John

There are several Hauppauge dual dvb-t2 tuners, so it isn't clear which you are considering.
I have one of these

and it works well with Windows 10 64 bit in a low power PC.

That's the exact one I was looking at. Cheers for the feedback.

In case it matters, I use the MediaPortal TV server. I also have a PCI-e TBS dual DVB-T2 tuner, so 4 tuners and working really well.
Motherboard is GigByte E350, so really low performance, and working great!

I'm also using Mediaportal. Other than the dodgy August USB stick it's been great once I sorted out my timeshift and recording folder permissions. I also had to add a "Thumbs" folder so that I could delete recordings which was a little strange, but easily fixed. Anyway, the Hauppauge is being delivered tomorrow.
Cheers again
