Hi,

Tune chip is a Sil 216x tha seems compatble with new standard (HEVC main10).

Please, any suggestion ?

Thanks

Sab Tuner ->DVB-T2 (AVC H.264),

The new standard (HEVC h264 or h265?) does not work with the tuner (and receiver).
I would understand it that way.

DVB-T2 is h.265. It should work!

If you're sure it's going, why do you ask?
From my point of view it won't work, but obviously you have more info or different info (Tuner and Receiver) than me.

greetings

I have no problem with the SAB Alpha Triple with DVB-T2 in the UK, but it looks like they are using AVC-MPEG4-part10, which is H.264.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Pro (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

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.
