[VU+ Duo] PCTV Nano Stick 290e T2

[rte]

Got my DVB T,T2,C internal tuner and installed it in my Vu+Ultimo.
Scanning channels doesn't spot T2/HD-channels in Sweden. I wonder if it really is T2-tuner in spite of its marking or do I need a special driver for it?

My joy was shortlived. I managed to scan the T2-channels only once and they were loud and clear. But when I started my Vu+Duo next day, channels where not visible any more and scanning didn't spot them. The first scanning results are still listed, but they show signal 0 and no pic. However, the channel program information is visible. Sometimes it gives a message like "wrong parameters". I'm puzzled. The T-channels ar ok, signal over 80%.
The link mast distance is 7 km over the lake.

I've had all kinds of problems with these sticks in numerous setups (Windows, TVHeadend, TV streamer running on my NAS) when plugged directly in to the USB port. Basically they can't draw enough power to keep a good quality T2 signal going. Try getting one of these (or any other powered hub which gives at least 1A per port) http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00E0NH9FC

I'm about to try setting this up with the Duo+ ... just plugged in but not recognised, time to go look for drivers. Wish me luck!
