I have since bought a Cinergy 1200 DVB-C and wrote a Windows driver for it and ran into the same thing. It appears to be a timing issue between the demodulator and the SAA7146A (rather than a PCI DMA issue): It looks as if sometimes the "SYNC" line goes high so early that the SAA7146A latches in the last (check) byte of the previous packet and subsequently is one byte off on every byte. Try this: Invert the polarity of the output clock with which the SAA7146A latches in the bytes from the demodulator by _not_ setting the POCLKP bit in the POLA1 register (change the third byte in the third line of the init array from 0xa1 to 0xa0). This seems to cure the issue in my Windows driver. Please let me know what your results are. Regards, -- Robert Schlabbach e-mail: robert_s@xxxxxxx Berlin, Germany
