Hi Forum,
I am thinking about purchasing a new PCIe tuner card and these are my candidates:
Hauppauge WinTV-quadHD (DVB-T/T2/C) - LinuxTVWiki
Both most likely very nice cards, the TBS is more expansive and Hauppauge cheaper + advertises super short switching times.
If there's anyone using either one of the two, would be very interested in feedback how well they work.
CvH: If you're looking, i'd like to go for the one that makes less trouble for you 
Cheeers,

I am using Hauppauge_WinTV-quadHD_(ATSC_ClearQAM) on Ubuntu 20.04, works perfectly, never had an issue with it. Drivers are available in 5.4 kernels and later. Tvheadend has no problems recognizing it and serving it to Kodi on LibreELEC.
This is of course the ATSC version of the card you noted.
I am not 100% sure but the WinTV-quadHD should have perfect linux support out of the box at every Linux distribution.
The TBS one you need to manually install the drivers at every kernel update.
So choose if you like a out of the box working device or you want to maintain it yourself forever
Thanks to both of you guys, that's exactly what I needed to know!
I am a couch potatoe and need things to work right out of the gate.
Had an analog hauppauge that still served me well after many years on another mediacenter distri, but these days I am totally down with LibreElec ! You guys do an awesome job really !
CvH, beer's on me tonight
Cheers
Hauppague made a big effort to upstream their drivers in recent times, which reflects in ease of support. TBS are still in the raised middle-finger zone.
frakkin64 Have you upgraded to LibreELEC 12 Beta 2? I just installed the Hauppauge WinTV-quadHD PCIe into my system and it is not creating /dev/dvb.
Maybe I could try a previous build and see if this stopped working on a specific build?
