Googling around the net, a card based on the ALI chips seem to exhibit lots of problems that this failure shows up. My new card had a VIA chip, and since installing it this morning I haven't had any such problems. Still need to make sure my signal is top notch. I can easily tune to the BBC channels, but the ITV ones need almost no segments of co-ax, and a small amplifier to get to work - despite being so close the the powerful Crystal Palace. -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
