The AVerMedia A835 USB DVB T is a USB television tuner for receiving terrestrial digital TV broadcasts using the DVB-T standard. Its driver allows Windows to recognize the tuner and communicate with compatible TV-viewing software, enabling channel scanning and reception where DVB-T broadcasts are available.

Key Features

• USB tuner recognition: Provides the device-specific support Windows needs to identify the AVerMedia A835 USB DVB T as a television tuner.
• TV application connectivity: Allows compatible viewing and recording software to access the tuner. Recording controls and other playback features depend on the application you use.
• DVB-T reception support: Enables software to tune to available terrestrial digital channels when a suitable antenna is connected. Reception depends on local coverage and antenna placement.
• Windows driver options: When downloading for Windows 11, 10, 8, or 7, check that the selected package explicitly supports your Windows version and system architecture. Older tuner drivers may have compatibility limitations on newer systems.

How to Install

1. Check your Windows configuration. Open your system information to confirm the Windows version and whether it uses a 32-bit or 64-bit architecture. Choose an AverMedia driver package that matches both.
2. Prepare the download. Extract the package if it arrives as a compressed archive, then read any included installation instructions. Keep the tuner disconnected until the installer requests it, unless the package instructions say otherwise.
3. Install the driver. Run the setup program with administrator permissions and follow the prompts. If no installer is included, connect the tuner, locate it in Device Manager, select Update driver, and browse to the extracted driver folder.
4. Connect and verify the tuner. Restart Windows if prompted, then plug the device directly into an available USB port. Check Device Manager for warning icons; if one appears, confirm that you installed the correct package rather than forcing an incompatible driver.
5. Set up television reception. Attach an appropriate antenna and open a compatible DVB-T application. Select the A835 tuner, choose your region, and scan for channels. If no channels appear, check antenna positioning and local broadcast availability—DVB-T2-only services require a tuner that supports DVB-T2.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Install fails or driver won’t load: Run the installer as administrator, temporarily disable antivirus, and use a signed AVerMedia driver package for Windows 10/11. Remove older AVerMedia TV drivers, reboot, then reinstall.
• Device not detected: Connect the A835 directly to a rear USB 2.0 port—avoid hubs and extension cables. Check Device Manager for unknown/USB devices, replug the tuner after installation, and select it as the DVB-T source in your TV app.
• Version conflicts or no channels: Uninstall other AVerMedia/DVB-T drivers and conflicting codec packs, reboot, then install only the A835 driver. Rescan channels and match the driver/software version to your Windows build.
