Freecom DVB-T USB Tuner

I've bought on of these the other week, and I'm quite happy with it. (Means I can watch F1 in the garden during the summer). But..

The softwares fairly naff....any suggestions?

Also, when I use it with my desktop, I wanna tune it into sky via the Co-ax I have upstairs, but it won't see it....and I can't manually tune it..

Any ideas again?

Thanks in advance.

For the software take a look at http://www.gbpvr.com/.

The coax input accepts a modulated (UHF) MPEG-2 stream, simply plugging the coax-out on the back of a Sky box won't work - for this you'd need an analogue TV tuner.

Any ideas how to get the drivers to unload to install the BDA drivers.

I've tried the instructions, and a different USB port, but no joy.

Hi,
Does the Freecom DVB-T USB now work with a sky Digi Box then?
