Toni- A user in irc.freenode.net#linuxtv got good results by doing the following: First, apply the disable-corner-edge-detection.patch, located here: http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2005-June/002691.html I know that you are already aware of this, I am only providing a link for anyone else reading this. After applying the first patch, please apply this next (attached) patch with timeouts proven to work by Sami Vento... Please let us know if this works for you. Patrick- Is there any reason why not to apply both this, and your disable-corner-edge-detection.patch to cvs? This patch triples some timeouts in order to get the frontend to work. This is as close as we can get to the original values, while maintaining functionality of the device.
