TBS 5925/Dvbdream Low Signal Levels

Hello

I just purchased a TBS 5925 USB Tuner and I find that the signal levels in Dvbdream are 50% less than other dvbsoftware such as TSReader and ESSpro. When I hook my Prof7500 up again the levels in all 3 software's are perfect. There seems to be a bug related to signal strength between the TBS 5915 unit and Dvbdream.

Comments or suggestions! 8)

Prof exaggerated.

TBS is doing the right metering.

Example ;

Prof 7301, with BDA driver ;

Same channel's of frequence ;

So, TBS's drivers, more realistic.

Those software might be using direct access to tuner/demodulator chip on cards, while DD just displays the values given by BDA Microsoft interface.
Can you check if DD displays lower signal level, when the signal level is actually higher in those softwares ? 5925 might be reporting signal in decibels instead of percentage %. That would mean closer to 0 , better signal.

Dvbdream is always lower than Tsreader, EBSpro, AltDVB and my AZBox HD Premium.
