Hi all - TBS5925 is it worth upgrading?

The card is suitable for finding feeds, no upgrade is needed.

Im Augenblick sind die S2X Transponder (noch) sehr wenig, meist sind es Daten.
Mit der 6903x (PCIe) habe ich eine Art "Hass-Liebe".
Sie ist mir unter Windows zu langsam, wertet aber die Daten am Besten aus, wo andere Modelle doch gelegentlich falsche Werte liefern (betrifft meist die FEC).

Nicht mehr lieferbare 6983/6903/6908 Karten spricht auch nicht für TBS.

Sofern deine USB-Karte keine technischen Probleme zeigt, würde ich sie weiter nutzen.
Mit steigenden S2X Aufkommen steigen vielleicht unsere Chancen wieder einmal eine gute Serie zu erleben.

At the moment there are (still) very few S2X transponders, mostly they are data.
I have a kind of “love-hate” relationship with the 6903x (PCIe).
It is too slow for me under Windows, but it evaluates the data best, where other models occasionally provide incorrect values (usually affects the FEC).

The fact that 6983/6903/6908 cards are no longer available does not speak for TBS either.

Unless your USB card shows any technical problems, I would continue to use it.
With increasing S2X volumes, our chances of experiencing a good series again may increase.

Al momento ci sono (ancora) pochissimi transponder S2X, per lo più sono dati.
Ho una sorta di rapporto di "amore-odio" con il 6903x (PCIe).
Per me è troppo lento sotto Windows, ma valuta meglio i dati, laddove altri modelli occasionalmente forniscono valori errati (di solito influiscono sulla FEC).

Anche il fatto che le schede 6983/6903/6908 non siano più disponibili non parla a favore di TBS.

A meno che la tua scheda USB non presenti problemi tecnici, continuerei a utilizzarla.
Con l'aumento dei volumi S2X, le nostre possibilità di rivivere una buona serie potrebbero aumentare.

Eine technische Hürde gibt es auch noch: S2X-Signale sind meist etwas anspruchsvoller, was die erforderliche Signalstärke betrifft.
There is also a technical hurdle: S2X signals are usually a little more demanding in terms of the required signal strength.
C'è anche un ostacolo tecnico: i segnali S2X sono solitamente un po' più esigenti in termini di potenza del segnale richiesta.

femi succinctly presented whether and which cards would be suitable for a feedhunter.
But if you still want to upgrade your USB tuner from 5925 to another USB tuner, the best is the 5927 USB tuner(only for dvb-s2 standard, not S2X extended). It's almost as good as the 6983/6903 (it uses the same demodulator), plus it's resistant to heavy use.

In fact, 5927 is an upgrade hdw to 5925, and because it overheats, it can break. You were lucky it lasted so long if you used it long and hard.
