NovaT500.jpg

Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-T-500 is a TV tuner card for digital terrestrial television (DVB-T). The card uses a dual tuner, allowing the user to watch one DVB-T digital TV channel while recording another or record two digital TV programmes at once under MythTV or with VDR record all the channels on either of two Mux's (Multiplex of channels) while watching any channel on either Mux.

The 'Diversity' variant of the T500 should be avoided as there are no drivers for this model.

If your card is working with no driver compilation, don't forget to add this option in /etc/modprobe.d/options:

options dvb-usb-dib0700 force_lna_activation=1

This turn on the onboard amplifier and give you a better signal strength.
