Hi, good news ! ".tda9887_conf = TDA9887_PRESENT | TDA9887_PORT1_ACTIVE," did the job ! I moved from Bologna to Ravenna, but I don't saved the new channels.conf. When I did, I was able to watch (and hear) dvb. But the ir insist to emit a huge quantity of spurious char, hanging xine or mplayer after a while. The analog tv and radio remain untunable. bye Pierpaolo _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
