What could be wrong?
I looked at one of these when I wanted a 2nd LAN DVB-T tuner and stuck with SiliconDust based on familiarity (the 1st unit was proven on my own setup) and a long standing rep in the market. If you're asking what could be wrong, the HDHR3-DT has a config dialogue that permits the setup to switch between various PVR software (including JRiver MC). The SD unit defaults to Micro$oft MCE, so it's a common problem when getting it to work with our favoured weapon of choice.
That's what
could be wrong. What options can you select during config of the HomeFree Duet that may help?
What also
could be wrong is that you don't have the latest firmware / driver:

From
TV Devices Supported:
Digital TV tuners (BDA):
ATSC, clear QAM and DVB-T/T2/S/S2/C devices are supported. All devices that conform to Broadcast Driver Architecture (BDA) should work.
I couldn't spot from review of the OEM website that the unit works to BDA architecture. I also had a squiz at the AVMedia user manual and couldn't spot anything obvious. They don't appear to have a forum (maybe I missed it?), so that's one option that won't help. If in doubt, and if no one here has a working unit to provide experience that you can use, raise a ticket with the OEM.
I do have an AVMedia USB stick that works fine with MC but that's obviously a different story.
I'd love to do a better job but that's all I can offer. Hope you get sorted soon..
