    Maybe you could consider an 'outdoor' aerial, even fitted in the attic if outside is too problematic, should be a big improvement?

    Was afraid of that. The same aerials work fine with USB DVB-T inputs tho.

    It is possible that the problem is not a weak signal/inefficient tuner, but some problem with the HDHomerun.

    The only suggestion I would have is to test it in another location to see if it works correctly ... thus using a different aerial.

    Maybe a post in the Terrestrial section would get some helpful responses?

    Have tried it in different rooms, upstairs downstairs all with the same issue. I might have to get on to silicondust support get them to check it.

    The different location I had in mind was not within your house but elsewhere, so a different aerial and reception conditions would be tested.

    I've moved the aerial away from most of the electrics and the data errors have dropped to an average of 1000/1500 wheres before it ws failing recordings because there was so many data errors.

    IMO you really need to use a proper aerial and not just some 'rabbit ears'.
