Linux Need advice on TV Tuner Card
#1
Hello folks,

I've been using Kodibuntu to run Kodi. Now I am looking to add a TV Tuner card and set up PVR.

I have a card in mind : 6281-SE Dual Terrestrial HD Low-profile PCIe TV Tuner Card DVB-T2

As per the fourth one down here : https://www.quietpc.com/tbs-tv-cards

Does anyone know if this card would work okay ?

I would like to stick with Kodibuntu and I am in the UK.

Many thanks.

Look in the wiki for linuxtv.org as it lists compatible devices and status of drivers since which Linux kernel version

That wiki is horribly outdated. TBS is generally fine but there are two sets of drivers, closed source and open source. The open source drivers are better as long as you can get them to compile.

I use Digital Devices myself, they have great hardware and great drivers.
