Jurgen B. Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I have no access to a local DVB-T2 signal, but hope to pick up some during good weather conditions from UK or Sweden. I have a Noxon USB stick and was wondering if that actually can receive DVB-T2 signals. In this Terratec answer they say No. I don't know if it is because of h/w or s/w reasons? Has anyone tried DVB-T2 with this stick and DVBViewer? What other sticks can you recommend? Quote Link to comment
boborg Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Different tuner hardware is needed for DVB-T2. PCTV nanoStick T2 has DVB-T2 Quote Link to comment
Webturtle Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Hello, I have a TerraTec NOXON USB Stick too. It is made only for receiving DAB+ Radio (Digital Audio Broadcasting) not for DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting Terrestrial). You can use it with the TerraTec Software that came with the stick or with the new DAB Receiver you can find in the members area. For receiving DVB-T you need a DVB-T Stick (the ran Stick from TerraTec can recieve DVB-T and DAB). For DVB-T2 you need a special DVB-T Stick desifgned for DVB-T2. With many greetings Webturtle Quote Link to comment
Tjod Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 With old drivers the stick should work with DVB-T as well I don't know why TerraTec dropped the DVB-T support. (The Realtek RT2832U chip is able to receive a lot http://sdrsharp.com/ ) But for DVB-T2 you need a different stick. Quote Link to comment

Jurgen B. Posted September 13, 2012 Author Share Posted September 13, 2012 Thank you all for your answers ! My Noxon DAB/DAB+ stick also works nicely with DVB-T, after installing the original Realtek driver, the newer Terratec drivers have been blocked for DVB-T, surely for marketing reasons. A week ago I got Denmark (180km) mux with DR-HD, using H264. Worked excellent with DVBViewer after I got the proper codecs installed. Actually I recorded the entire stream, and found the codecs later after the reception faded away. With TSPlayer I can still replay that moment. Great Tool !! However I saw subtitle streams, these are not shown in TSPlayer. Is that correct? Quote Link to comment
