I couldn’t find a r/linuxhardware alternative community, so I decided to ask here.
I have a TBS5530 DVB-S/T/C USB device and I am not happy with it due to https://github.com/tbsdtv/linux_media/issues/193
I don’t want to recompile kernel or use out-of-tree media_builds everytime I upgrade my kernel (ubuntu22.04).
Therefore I am looking for a device that has built-in kernel driver or simply loadable one with apt install linux-modules-XXX .
I prefer USB devices since I use it with both my desktop & laptop.
Does anyone know such hardware available to buy ?
Note to myself: seems I am 175th subscriber and this is my 1st post. yay !
I’m not sure exactly what you’re hooking it up to, but I had good success with this Hauppauge USB tuner hooked up to one of those flat antennas. I used it on Ubuntu Server 20.04 if I recall correctly, and they have a PPA as well as fairly helpful Linux instructions. Some of their other products might do the satellite and cable channels as well as over the air, but I have no experience with it, so your mileage may vary.
