It turns out that it's not rb-download at fault... It seems that this device (or, perhaps, the driver) is somewhat pickier than I'm used to with my cx88 Nova-T cards - I need to add "-qam 16 -cr 3_4" to dvbtune's parameters to get it to tune into the first of the BBC multiplexes. Which, in turn, means that the Pontop Pike file is wrong - it has 1/2 but needs 3/4 (see attached). It works with the cards, but not with the stick. > I've actaully got one of these Win TV sticks (ID 2040:7050) - though I > haven't built a new kernel that can handle it yet... is support in 2.6.19 > or do I need to wait for 2.6.20 or will I have to get a bleeding edge git > tree from somewhere? 2.6.20-rc* and the v4l-dvb hg repository have support for it. -- | Darren Salt | linux or ds at | nr.
