I have a problem with my VDR setup (c't VDR 6): I currently use a DVB-S TT 2.3 card as output device (no dish/LNB attached) and a DVB-T Nova-T as input device for UK freeview channels. That works just fine.
Now I want to add a second Nova-T so I can record and watch something else at the same time.
But as soon as the second DVB-T card is inside the machine, I cannot record anything anymore.
Strange... I've not noticed any problems with three devices on the occasions when I've started VDR with all three present; OTOH, they're all DVB-T, though one's connected via USB.
I think there's two problems:
- I am trying to use the antenna out on one Nova-T to pass the signal through to the second.
Ignore the outputs. You should connect both inputs to an amplifier; tune to and monitor one of the QAM64 muxes to check that the wiring is good.
(It's possible that you may be able to get away with a splitter, but you'd need to be close to the transmitter or have a good aerial.)
