I can receive TV now, but there are many visible artifacts, so signal is too weak. Even with an active amplifier there are still errors. And i live in direct visual contact to the sender (15km away), so receiving should be optimal, and it is with two other PCI DVB cards and the same antenna (one card even has better signal without any antenna than this stick with antenna). So the afore mentioned driver works barely but signal is too weak. Either still hardware limitation or driver fault? Could your development driver do better?
