It won't release the the two tuners so once you watch two shows I have to reset the driver or unplug the device and plug it back in to be able to watch tv shows again. EDIT:Unless this is really a single tuner then its working as intended. You can record over the air tv just fine but not watch at the same time. This is cheap usb tuner so it isn't nearly as good as the built in tv tuners but its still cool that it mostly works with Plex DVR with a few bugs.

Penn: I can confrim this device works with PLEX however, I had to search using UK settings. Also, there is no EPG support for South Africa. To view channels, I had to map UK epg data with scanned channels. [UPDATE] I was able to generate epg data for dvb t2 channels for South Africa and use successfully on plex to dvr shows.

tuciai: Works good. Linux drivers are included in kernel 3.19 Additionally need to place 2 firmware files in /lib/firmware:
dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw
dvb-tuner-si2158-a20-01.fw
Can be downloaded from http://palosaari.fi/linux/v4l-dvb/firmware/Si2168/ or https://github.com/OpenELEC/dvb-firmware/tree/master/firmware
Had some problem with EPG from Plex build in provider, as not all information was available. But with my own xml works fine. Another issue was that if channel id in xml file had spaces - plex could not turn in the chanel. After removing all spaces (put some _ or . ) everything works ok.

Can record 2 things at once but not all 4 still) but i am still testing functions. Recording while using dvr settings to remove Adverts/Commercials removes some of recording so have had to disable for time being untill testing more. Tunner on plex settings shows TBS 6284 DVBT/T2/C Tuner A but in fact is only one part of tuner, as it is a tuner (A,B,C,D) but still shows 4 tuners available.. will update more when have played more

KWORLD
PlusTV Dual DVB-T Stick (DVB-T 399U)

PCTV 290e creates /dev/dvb devices but not tested against Plex.m me mmmmmmm
insmod the following modules - the first loop will satisfy the PCTV290e but you need both for the KWORLD:

cd /lib/modules/backports_dvb
for module in dvb-core videodev v4l2-common tveeprom em28xx tuner au0828 tda18271 tda8290
do
echo insmod ${module}.ko
insmod ${module}.ko
sleep 1
done

for module in rc-core dvb_usb_v2 af9013 mxl5005s dvb-usb-af9015
do
echo insmod ${module}.ko
insmod ${module}.ko
sleep 1
done
UKIanTested the KWORLD on Synology. It will find channels AND WORKS! Using PMS 1.21.2. It appears that 1.23 "Plex Transcoder" (ffmpeg) has difficulty with this as well as with supported DVB sticks (exit code 1).
You need to manually install the modules (see column C).
You might need to unplug/re-insert to get it to create /dev/dvb. You can simulate this by:
echo "x-y" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/unbind
echo "x-y" > /sys/bus/usb/drivers/usb/bind
where "x-y" is the corresponding port as shown from "lsusb" (on mine it's 1-2)

PCTV290e also successfully scans channels - I suspect PMS 1.21 will work, just not tested yet.

Ubuntu server 16.04LTS on HPMicroserver already running TVHeadend successfully with PCTV 290e USB tuner.

PCTV 290e TV tuner was then listed.
Selected "Antenna" and "United Kingdom", clicked Scan.
It requested a transmitter to scan for, my local wasn't shown, so chose "whole UK frequency".
Scanned for channels, stopped very quickly, none found.
Figured TVHeadend running on the same server may not be helping(!), disabled the tv tuner in tvheadend -> settings -> tv adapters.
Back in Plex, scanned for channels, whole UK frequency. Scan progressed slower this time, but that's what I'd expect if it was working, so left it running.
Scan completed successfully after around 8 minutes.
147 channels found, clicked Next.
Entered full post code, but "Continue" disabled. On hunch, entered only first part of postcode and then "Continue" was enabled - may need something on the form to clarify?
Program guide detected & suggestion was correct, Freeview - West Country (For EX1 postcode).
Left channel selection as it was, clicked next.
DVR Setup / EPG setup complete dialog shown.
Went to EPG guide, it slowly populated.
EPG successfully populated after around 40 minutes.
Live SD TV plays successfully.
Live SD pause, rewind & skip working successfully.
Tested recording, got "No write access to destination"
Added "plex" user to usergroup that media files are under.
Tested recording, got "No write access to destination" again.
Rebooted server. Yep, I'm in IT, I turned it off and on again.
Tested recording, recording started successfully.
Recording completed OK.
Playback of recording OK, sound synced etc.
Deleted recording OK.

A scan of my local transponder found 0 channels, had to do a full UK scan which picked up the local channels on the correct frequency.
sipuncher: Works great. No issues that are attributable to the tuner.
