Hello,

I had a similar problem like you an the solution for me was to change the sweeprate variable in the stv0297.c file.

At row 404 (in the latest greatest):
I changed the line "sweeprate = 1500;" to "sweeprate = 1000;" (it
worked with "sweeprate = 500;" also).

Hello all,
for about a week I have been trying to get the TT DVB-C budget 1500(FE: stv0297) card to tune to any channel, without success.

We have a local cabel provider here, broadcasting about 40 channels via cable. Using the Windows software from TT, all channels are found and I can tune to them. The Windows software reports a signal level of 70-75% and 100% quality. Under Linux however, there is no way of getting a lock on any of the frequencies, which work nicely under Windows. I have used "dvbscan" from todays CVS and also "w_scan", but nothing worked.

Is there anything I can try to get the card to tune under Linux?
I am using the driver shipped with Kernel 2.6.16-11. The ones from last weeks Mercury did not compile because of some error when calling fdump.
The signal is broadcasted in QAM64, with an SRate of 6875.

Thank you very much in advance.

 André.
