[QUOTE="intracube, post: 946280, member: 380516"] Quick update; I wrote a script to work out where new modules would overwrite existing system files - then skip the installation of those. But, it looks like the kernel doesn't like it when you mix and match drivers from different sources... In the end I just let the TBS install script do its thing. The card is now recognised fine and VLC plays SD/HD channels without a problem. The only difficulty was trying to understand the command-line tools that generate the channel lists. Some of them were out of date and didn't work with DVB-S2 transponders. In the end I downloaded the latest version of w_scan which can output a VLC formatted playlist in XML. [/QUOTE]
