I' m looking for a tuner which can also capture the analog cable channels provided by Telenet cable here in Belgium.
I'm using an XTrend9500 with OpenPli3.0
Anyone here has experience with this?
thanks

I don't think an analog tuner is possible in a digital receiver. It lacks the hardware for digitizing the analog input.

I have been looking a bit further and I came across this device:I don't think an analog tuner is possible in a digital receiver. It lacks the hardware for digitizing the analog input.
elgato eyetv hybrid receiver
Could this work with an XTrend9500?

There are linux drivers available for this receiver, so if someone can make them work, you may have a chance.
Whether or not it will work greatly depends on these drivers, and where the analog -> digital conversion takes place. If that is software, then you can forget it, an STB doesn't have the CPU power for it.

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Since it is a USB receiver the AD conversion will have to take place in the stick.
