Has to be SmartDVB. I don't understand why it's not that popular. DreamDVB and ProgDVB are paid and seem to be not fit for my feed hunting needs. Although I should add that I record more then actually watch live. That said still don't get not using it since it's free and you can stream the feed to another computer on the network and watch it there. Also you can record multiple channels on a single mux and all stream pids.

Your 100% right, Something is odd here. Smart DVB does not CRASH. I have two computer, one has Win 10 and TBS 6904SE and the other Win 7 64 bit with a TBS 6982 and both crash repeatedly with DVB Dream but with Smart DVB they work perfect. Smart DVB has lots more features that DVB Dream.

Over 19 years ı can say that DVBviewer is the best. ProgDVB also good but GUI is bad. AltDVB DVBDream and smart dvb usefull but they have some issues on some usb dvb cards. For example On DVBviewer you can see signal on low sembol rate freqs but on same hardware dvbdream cannot tune signal. with skystar2 and dvbdream are awsome, just like dream.

How long does it take for DVB Dream to crash for you? Is it at random?

I also have a problem with DVB Dream, it crashes randomly when I press "OK" in this window. Sometimes it works fine, it closes immediately and there are no issues after that, but more often it gets frozen for 2 seconds and either proceeds without crashing or crashes.

One one Computer with Win 7 64 bit it crashes about 50% of the time using TBS 6982 but on Win 10 machine it crash's at least 70% of the time with TBS 6904SE card. Now considering DVB Dream has the Only LOOP Mode when you blind scan I say it needed as I don't want to sit in front of the Computer all the time but it freezes (stuff me up) when it feels like and for me its a NO GO.
I have been using EBS Pro for over 12 years but I did not know you can do it to have a loop mode, I will try to find the link.
