Help choosing the additional tuner dvb-s

  • Hello Forum, are new, a salute in particular administrators, I wanted to buy a tuner to be included in my dm8000hd, but I do not know what to buy.
    I wanted to know if these are fine tuners: Broadcom BCM4505 DVB-S2 or Alps REV M bsbe2-801a.
    The tuners used on the decoder a dm800hd or dm800hdse, are compatible?
    I await your kind reply, thanks.
    Best regards.

  • The Alps BSBE2 Tuner was used in the DM800 HD (not SE) and is not recommended to be used in the DM8000 due to high power consumption.


    You can use the Tuner of the DM800 HD se or DM7020 HD without any problems in your DM8000. This is the BCM Tuner. I think there are also two versions of the BCM tuner available. One has more features such as Blindscan I think. But not sure about that.

    so long

    Another question, you can, after you put all four tuners in dm8000hd, add a fifth USB (USB tuner DTT)? :question_mark:
    The operating system recognizes more than four tuners? :astonished_face:
    Thank you.
    Greetings.
