…in my memory, this is a USB card and has nothing to do with this Tread…
The company who created vtv-Tuner can also deliever Dvb-s2x Tuners…it is only a thing of order quantities…2 solution can be chosen,the Availink 6261c(well known from Edision 4k Stb) or the Montage M88RS6060 demod…problem is, for both demods are no linux driver available at moment…another tuner to abuse…,it have no Dvb-S2x,but support,all other things like 32Apsk,Acm,Vcm ,low Sr ,Multistream and PLS can be received .Open source drivers for Stv91x and Stv6120 are still available and this NIM is also a twin tuner…https://wiki.batc.org.uk/Serit_tuner

This is good news.
I just bought usb TBS5520SE because of the X extension.
It has terrestrial ISDB-T for my country.
But I’m not out of this. @Dvb-Freak
It is possible to leave here the specifications of the models available for sale, all details, as values. Or maybe create a new topic.
Thank you.

CoreELEC:~ #
Tvheandend sees vtv, but there is no picture. Please help. Corelelec latest nightly.
I managed it myself
At first read How to report an issue you’re having with CoreELEC.
Partial logs are in most cases useless.
Use recommended dtb (g12b_a311d_odroid_n2_dvb.dtb).
Double check wiring. Wiring for I2C is correct as VTV board was detected, but for transfering stream have to be correctly connected DVB_D0, DVB_CLK, DVB_SYNC and DVB_VALID pins.
What does mean ‘no picture’?
Have you tried scan channels in TVHeadend?

problem is out of date
No, the N2 doesn’t have a PCI-E slot.

N2 have no PCIe, but similar Khadas VIM3 have a M2 connector with one Pcie lane…
you need to use an adapter for PCIe cards,but don t know if that would work…
BTW: many WinTv cards are supported by linux kernel…see here:

Hi, I have Wetek play 2 tuner. Please give me detailed photos. What I don’t understand is 12v connection to tuner. I didn’t see any battery or power input. Where does the cable connected to pin 14 go? Sorry my english.
I don’t want to deal with much solder. I want to use it. It has four pins. Will the input GND remain empty? Asking not to make it wrong.
Thanks. I get it now.
12V power is necessary for dvb-s/s2. GND input and GND output on 1V2 board are short connected. One of them is enough to connect.

Please tell me.
What 2 cheap tuners can I buy for N2 and how to connect these 2 tuners (schem)?
Thank you
Even if it did, these old cards generally fall off a cliff of support after a finite time.
Shoog
A SAT>IP box is about the cheapest way to get two tuners. These are far more reliably supported than many of the cheaper USB tuners they are up against.
There is also a two tuner version, but it doesn’t fully support the SAT>IP protocol which can make detection erratic.
Cost wise there is no other option which will get you 2 tuners for €74.00
The real beauty of SAT > IP is it is platform agnostic, just so long as TVHeadend supports the protocol it will work on any hardware.

Good @Shoog your statement is great.
More Here in Brazil we have DVB-C / ISDB-T / DVB-S2
If I am mistaken please can fix, Telestar and just DVB-S?
So I will be limited, correct.
I bought a usb TBS5520SE and it works with CoreELEC.
@afl1 has support for it! TBS5520SE 
@blackride For sure and a good option.
TBS5520SE DVB-S2X/S2/S, DVB-T2/T, DVB-C2/C, ISDB-T
https://www.ebay.com/itm/TBS5520SE-Multi-standard-Universal-USB-Digital-TV-Tuner-Box-For-IPTV-Streaming-/232841429448
Here the same in operation.
The Digibits do both S and S2. Its extremely rare for a tuner to also support terrestrial, but terrestrial USB tuners are cheap as chips.
