Here are the Tuners for the Dreamboxes compatible with DM8000HD, DM800HDse,

a) Alps BSBE (Single Tuner, DVB-S2, BSBE2-401A)
b) Alps BSBE2 (Single Tuner, DVB-S2, BSBE2-801A)
c) Broadcom BCM4505 (Single Tuner, DVB-S2)
d) Philips TU1216 (Single Tuner, DVB-T)
e) Philips CU1216Mk3 (Single Tuner, DVB-C)
f) Si2166B (Dual Tuner, DVB-S2)
g) CXD1981 (TypeMultiple, DVB-C/T)
h) Hybrid Dual Tuner (Dual Tuner, DVB-C/T2)

As you can see the last one (h), is DVB-T2, and will work with the DM8000HD.

Hello, it's been a long time. Tuner work has been put on the back burner when there are car jobs.
Then to the point, where can you buy a T2 tuner and does it have a type number, what is the price?
thank you in advance

This is the only internal tuner to buy,

Hybrid Dual Tuner (Dual Tuner, DVB-C/T2)

It is only supported by the DM800HDse (v1/v2) boxes (Drivers), that are ONLY H264 (not H265/HEVC).

About the USB Tuners, DVB-T2, there was one if I remember well... but I don't remember the reference. But again here, it would work on all DM boxes, remember that there is no H265/HEVC before the DM520HD/DM525HD. The DM800HDpvr, DM800HDse, DM500HD, DM8000HD, DM7020HD, DM7080HD, DM820HD are H264.

DM52xHD, DM9x0UHD, and after ARE H265/HEVC (and support backward the H264).
