kernel is crashing..
Most probably paches from upstream required to make it work.
I am sorry but stick is not usable without extra patches.
Many thanks for Your time

Came across this post, the user was able to get the dvb-c part working. But not sure how much it applies to enigma2.

That looks very promising.!
I'm sure there is a lot of interest to get those working now. Especially with the recent role-out of dvbt2 in Germany.
As they only cost about $16, its a cheap alternative for an additional Dvb-T2/dvb-C tuner.
Also that RTL2832 chipset allows you to use it as a Software Defined Radio. (listen to police/aircraft radio)
Been playing around with that on a Windows machine, and thats pretty cool. https://github.com/cjcliffe/CubicSDR.

Using yesterdays update of meta-edision on osmini and osminiplus (4.6.3 kernel) I am able to use astrometa now with the rename frontend trick.

PS. Driver is still on staging and not enabled by default, it will go out of staging on 4.7 kernel.
While having a test with OpenATV6.0 (et8000) in noticed this:
Welcome to openATV for et8000
openatv 6.0 et8000
et8000 login: root
root@et8000:~# uname -r

Do you think its still worth persuing DVB-T2 QAM256 for UK tv or as cheap Cable tuner ?
Unfortunately I don't have my Astrometa USB to try out at the moment.

You can always give a try.
I never tested dvb-c part, only dvb-t.
@athoik Update.
I can confirm that DVB-T2 & DVB-C works good in the UK.on my et8000, with the frontend swap trick.with newer kernels (4.10.6) Open ATV6.0/6.1
Also I have found that after frontend swap via PC-Telnet, that just copy ( i use "Deambox Edit" plugin) /dev/dvb/adaptor1 to a local folder.
Full reboot returns adapters to normal, ie software update or pligin install.
So from remote (No PC needed) send/ftp modified /dev/dvb/adaptor1
Restrat E2
Tara Frontends swapped.

You can find firmware here: http://palosaari.fi/...are/MN88473/01/
But I needed kernel 4.10 to get it to work (et8000 SatDreamGR image).

Thanks. Actually if I insert the Usb dongle my box doesn't recognize the interface.. No dvb-t/t2 adapter recognized (if I insert my old RTL2832U adapter everything is ok)..
The firmware you posted is for DVB-t2? Basically what I should do? Copy firmware? And for kernel .ko? and anything more?
Thanks again
