Intel CE9500 / CE6230 DVB-T Stick

[NumberFive]

Hi,

Just wondering has anyone experience of the Intel CE9500 DVB-T sticks. I bought one from ebay for £10, and as expected it was too good to be true. It's a DUTV005.

When first plugged in, it finds Intel BDA drivers from Windows Update. These don't work at all in GBPVR or ProgDVB, the channel scan just wizs through and doesn't detect any signal strength.

I cracked it open and found the chipset to be CE6230. I installed the CE6230 BDA drivers and now ProgDVB and GBPVR can detect signal strength, but are unable to detect any channels.

For £10, I'm willing to chalk it up as a waste of time. Just wondering on the off-chance has anyone got one and got it working? It looks like this:

Any recommendations for a cheap DVB-T stick. I have two Hauppauge ones, but the price of these seems to have gone way up. I know you get what you pay for, but I don't want to spend a lot of money .

Thanks

I'm told that it is a re-badged one of these ...

That looks a good price, especially for Maplin, king of rip-off components!

I have managed to get the DUTV005 working in GBPVR, although I will allow it to burn-in test for a few days before I'm convinced. If anyone wants the drivers, PM me and I'll email them.

Just got a PM asking me how I got on with this card (DUTV005), and does it work. In answer to the question, I did get it working and it seems stable. For £10, was a good buy.

You need to install the drivers from here http://uploading.com/files/YNI3QISI/CE62...s.zip.html

Then you need to add the following to BDA.ini in the GBPVR directory:

Code:

[Intel CE6230 (dodgy ebay USB stick)]
TUNING_TYPE=DVB-T
FILTER_TUNER=Ce6230 BDA Tuner Filter
FILTER_CAPTURE=Ce6230 BDA Capture Filter
PIN_TUNER_IN=Input0
PIN_TUNER_OUT=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_IN=MPEG2 Transport
PIN_CAPTURE_OUT=MPEG2 Transport

Good luck
