Usually a (DVB-T) Demod has an capture area of +/- 1MHz relative to the programmend IF and also in most Demods the IF could be moved with certain register settings. I don't know the FMD1216, but in many designs you have a third element which determines the IF frequency, the SAW filter between the tuner and the demod. So depending on which SAW-filter you are using you choose also an certain IF. Epcos for example sells filters with 35.1, 35.825, 36, 36.125, 43.75 MHz and much more. So if you find a SAW-filter on your device, maybe have a look an the datasheet and you will find the right IF. For example, the X6872D which could be found in some DVB-T sticks, has a center frequency of 36.125MHz. (And 6.9MHz bandwidth)
The TU1216 's have an external SAW filter in comparison to the internal SAW filter on the FMD1216 linuxtv.org BL my DNS for no reason, thanks to johannes for a timely fix. manu _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
