There have been some postings on the linux-dvb Mailinglist that some versions of the AVerMedia DVB-T cards known as ''model 761'' (with Microtune DTF7072 tuner module) have serious sensitivity problems.

New card revisions called ''model 771'' and ''model 777'' are based on the [[Zarlink MT352|MT352]] Demodulator. These cards work well with the latest kernels (confirmed for at least Australia and Spain). The first few versions of the [[Zarlink MT352|MT352]] driver didn't work so well, so try upgrading if you have problems with tuning. The author (nathanh) has been using a 771 for many months under MythTV. Other autor (Klez) has been using a 777 in Spain with Xine without problems.

AVerMedia is a Taiwanese company that produces and sells many different analog and digital TV devices for personal computers.

Many AVerMedia devices are well supported under linux via drivers from the LinuxTV project. AVerMedia, themselves, do not provide direct support for their devices under Linux but for one exception (which itself is a case that is quite limited/constrained in scope). A dialogue with George Chen, AVerMedia Technologies S.L. director, outlines the company's current position in regards to Linux (Spanish).
