> Nun, dann werde ich die Sticks nun zurück geben. Wäre gut wenn wenigstens die Übersichtsseite angepasst wird, denn da stehen nun schlichtweg falsche Informationen. Der Hauppauge Support war auch eher unzufriedenstellend. Ja, es ist Corona-Zeit aber ich habe auch echt viel Zeit gegeben und währenddessen habe ich nur eine nicht hilfreiche Antwort erhalten.

> Hi, Sorry, the version I placed in the previous message was the web player version. As of PMS version 1.20.3.3421-54b6523bd it worked for me. Yesterday removed/re-added the DVR to setup the new EPG support for my country. Currently I’m also on the same version as you and no issues there for me. Try installing the latest WinTV (this also includes the latest drivers): If that doesn’t work, manually uninstall the Hauppauge drivers, uninstall WinTV and install the driver only ([https://hauppaug…](https://hauppauge.s3.amazonaws.com/drivers/wintv-solo_dual_quadhd_5_2020_0406_38125.exe)

> Hello there, I’m having trouble setting up Plex DVR / Live TV with a Hauppauge WinTV-dualHD Tuner on Windows. I have modified the file 5263.ini (Cable - Romania) such as it can search for all the channels listed [here](https://tvchannellists.com/List_of_digital_channels_on_RCS_%26_RDS_in_Bucharest_and_Ilfov_county).

Seems like all these topics boil down to the same conclusion.  
Problem got fixed 2-3 months ago for windows.  
Problem still exist for Linux servers.

Looking forward to a reply from the Plex support team.  
Would be awesome if this problem gets fixed for Linux servers as well.
