Signal strenght: which hardware/driver report correctly the percentage value?

Added by Stefano Dalbosco over 9 years ago

I tried 4 dvb-t tuner: all works good with Tvheadend 3.9.2496 but only one can show correctly the "signal strenght" in the "status" TAB (however the SNR is 0%).
Can you check if your hardware works better? Thanks in advance!

Chipset that I checked:

- Dibicom7000pc on a "Hauppauge Nova-T",
- Realtek RTL2832 on a "Trust" receiver
- Ite IT9135 on a "Terratec Cinergy T stick mini" (recognised as a Afatech AF9033)

These report signal always at 100% (or other strange codes) even without the antenna connected!

The only chip that report correctly now is an old and inexpensive Zarlink Zl10353 an anonymus chinese key.

PS: in the older version of Tvheadend I saw the signal strenght and "quality"

in the tab "multiplexes"... now those colums seem disappeared... I am right?
