I don't suppose there are any #LibreElec users on here who have had success getting the Hauppauge WinTV Nova S2 USB satellite tuner working? Specifically revision BBH9 with a USB ID of 2013:0264 - apparently also known as PCTV Systems PCTV 461
As I understand it this is a new chipset so the existing Linux support for a service of the same name doesn't work, but the firmware has been released and may even now be in upstream Linux kernels.
Big Country, The Crossing, 1983 on Mercury
Debut album by Scotland’s Big Country, which charted at number 18 in the US, and contains the song “In a Big Country.” Produced by Steve Lillywhite and recorded in London and Oxford.
The opening of that track – “In a Big Country” – is just indelibly etched in my early 80s memory. I’m sure they tired of the comparison of their guitar sound to bagpipes, but it certainly stood out and somehow felt Scottish to me.
My copy—via a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell MA—is a Hauppauge pressing (note the “53” at the beginning of the rim text) from 1983.

Well guess what, the package actually showed up today! Replaced an #Astrometa tuner with a #Hauppauge WinTV Dual.
Night and day difference! Same exact cable, no signal errors, no skips, and thanks to two tuners can watch two channels on two different frequencies at once.
All on a Raspberry Pi, stock Ubuntu 22.04.x kernel (needed the firmware package from their PPA however).
Don't know why I thought giving #Astrometa USB TV tuners another try was a good idea. Problematic 10 years ago, problematic now, even in newer revisions.
Feels like it doesn't amplify enough (if at all)? Real TV shows 100% signal strength and quality with zero hiccups, while Astrometa is all over the place. This is on cable (#DVB_C), with decent cabling, I would expect the signal to be stable.
Looking at #Hauppauge now, their dual-tuner model looks tempting…
Mute Swans are not native to New York, but they were popular on estates of the wealthy. Some escaped, while others were intentionally released. Today Mute Swans have made their home in parts of New York. Mute Swans out compete other birds including the native Trumpet Swans because of Mute Swan’s larger size, taller necks and aggressive / territorial nature. They also tend to uproot vegetation that they feed on causing further damage to the ecosystem.
Having said that it’s still awe inspiring to see these majestic birds in the wild. They’re not here for any fault of their own. I get excited like a child every time I spotted one at a distance.

I fixed a little bit of retro tech. Hope you like it! #repair #hauppauge
#Linux tinkerers, is a #Hauppauge WinTV Nova-T USB stick still of use? It does not seem to have full SDR capability needed for receiving satellite photos or ADS transponder signals. And since DVB-T is dead it cannot be used for it's main purpose anymore.
