Is your dvb tuner usb by chance? many people get started on linux with a Raspberry Pi, they are cheap and use Linux. its very risk free, if you complely mess something up, you just pull the micro sd card and rewrite it.

UDL

Including the capability of controling your lnb servo if you have one.

We are on the verge of releasing a new image just as soon as UDL does his final tweaks on his new updateDVB so it will be in the image.

Some shots in our new raspberry pi 2/3 image using UDL's updateDVB. Here I am using my atsc tuner.




I was able to install Lubuntu on my very old but yet reliable Dell Inspiron 710m and want to see if I will be able to load updateDVB.

Thanks for the info on the Raspberry pi 2/3 image . Where can I download such image from and what size SD card will be adequate to use the image and have enough space to use.

I just purchased a Raspberry 3 from Micro center and I can believe how compact and nice this device is. So would like to try the image to get it up and running.

Thank you in advance guys.
