Yeah, the manual didn't help at all wrt configuring it, but it had that picture of the card. > Technically on mine only the FM radio input is fix, since this one is > routed through an 5.5MHz ceramic filter.

(Starting a dvb-app does it the second after radio) That's how it seems to be. (It could be it is using the analog input at first, but it doesn't seem to, since it doesn't find ANY signal. If I plug the analog cable to the RF/FM-IN manually, I get dvb image but with errors, since the signal is weaker in that cable.) > To start and close for example kaffeine twice should then have the same > effect, as using radio at first.

Do I do that via the mplayer -tv options, or should it be forced to MONO at driver level somehow? > Else always enable audio_debug=1 on the saa7134 I have debug enabled for saa7134-alsa, but it doesn't make difference.
