I was looking at the manual. It talks about
  1  "FM radio / Digital TV port"
  2  "Analog TV antenna / Cable TV port"
( 3  "Audio-video port" )

But I guess the exact terminology is not important - what I was trying to
find out was if DVB can use both antenna inputs - and you already answered
that below. Thanks.

And this is different from the
http://www.spinics.net/lists/vfl/msg28220.html patch, right?

Ok, I'll try that.

It would have been nice to be able to use one good quality antenna cable fo both
analog tv and dvb (instead of having a splitter to divide the cable in two -
even if that'd mean fm tuner get lousy signal, But I guess one can't have 
all at once.

Is there anything I can do to further debug this?

Ok, thanks for the clarification.

Thanks for your reply.

I don't suppose you have any idea on the analog tv "dsp access error" issue?
