Tony,
What do you mean by "free to view scrambled" channels? Isn't it either free
to view (and thus in clear, not scrambled or encrypted) or requires some
payment (in which case the signal is scrambled and you need a card to
decrypt it).
If it's the latter, you need a DVB card that has a CAB in

Sorry to restart this thread, but I'm now wanting to have another crack
at getting my Nova-T working, after an enforced break due to pressures
of work. I've found a little time to play with DVB this weekend, and
scanned the list to see if there were any other tips I could try.

Hi Bruno,
You'll want to add '-qam 16 -cr 3_4' to both the dvbtune and dvbstream

Also 600 601 doesn't sound right, try 601 602 on 505833 (with -qam 16
