In my experience the whole DVB driver situation on Another problem is that DVB really runs out of favor. It is not “cool anymore” as everyone uses streaming services nowadays and so less and less “spare time developers” still care about “TV”. This even seems to be visible in less and less DVB hardware still developed.
I’ve noticed this recently. Some of my family still likes to watch broadcast TV bit our DVB-S receiver is starting to get old and cranky. I started to look at computer based solutions for this, as media PCs were the hot thing for a while and I figured solutions would be fairly mature at this point. We are already suing Jellyfin for media playback so I figured it made sense to to look look for computer based TV as well.
Unfortunately it seems to have passed through maturity and is heading into obscurity. Tuners seem hard to find, drivers are poorly maintained and playback software is looking long in the tooth also.
Do you have any particular recommendations for DVB-S IP devices? I’d been looking at conventional tuners up until now.
