This is what I wrote (that got mangled by hotmail), lsusb shows 2040:7060.
Is there a general problem with that id? I tried it on seperate machines and
got the same problem.

I also just bought one of these and am having similar problems. 

Running on FC6 2.6.20 kernel

Whereas mine works fine. What's its product ID? (Use lsusb; I'm guessing
that it's 2040:7060.)

BTW, what happened to the formatting? Mangled by Hotmail, perhaps? All of
your text is in one *long* unwrapped line...

Hi..

I'm sorry to report that the remote isn't working flawless, it's better but
not good enough.

Hope you find something that could solve this problem.

No reason, it shouldn't make any difference.
if(x < 159)
is mathmatically the same as:
if((x+36) < (159+36))

It's just an arbitrary choice if you should define the bands before or after
the IF offset is taken into account.  The bug in ttusb-budget looks like it
came from someone cut&pasting code without taking this into account.

Are the docs available somewhere?  I couldn't find them on google.

although it helps.

	Australia
To: linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx
Message-ID: <464830CC.70905@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

Hi all.

I hope this is the right mailing list to send to.
It's a request to fix an incorrect setting in the configuration file
supplied for the scan utility of the dvb-utils software, the 
the au-Perth region.

I have a Hauppauge Nova-T tuner card and for ages I've been able to get all
of the five TV stations except for Channel 7.
I had looked all over the Internet and the settings reoprted on various
wiki's, mailing lists, etc all agreed with the ones I was 
trying, but failing with.

Finally I stumbled across the correct settings on the Digital Broadcasting
Australia's website at the following link:

	http://www.dba.org.au/index.asp?sectionID=120

The problem is that everywhere, the guard interval for channel 7 has been
reported as being 1/8.
This is incorrect. It is actually 1/16.
It was enough to stop me from being able to tune to it, even when doing auto
scans.
I was just about to return the DVB-T capture card as faulty because of this
setting reported incorrectly everywhere.

I'm using Debian, and they have a dvb-utils package that is at version 1.1.1
that seems to be the latest version.
In this package is a file called:
/usr/share/doc/dvb-utils/examples/scan/dvb-t/au-Perth
The current contents of this file are as follows:

	# Australia / Perth (Carmel/Bickley transmitters)
	# T freq bw fec_hi fec_lo mod transmission-mode guard-interval
hierarchy
	# ABC
	T 226500000 7MHz 3/4 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE
	# Seven
	T 177500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE
	# Nine
	T 191625000 7MHz 3/4 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE
	# Ten
	T 219500000 7MHz 3/4 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE
	# SBS
	T 536625000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/8 NONE

However the entry for "Seven" should be:

	T 177500000 7MHz 2/3 NONE QAM64 8k 1/16 NONE

Is this the correct list to report this problem to so that the file is
corrected in future versions of the utils?

I hope this helps anyone else from Perth who has had the same problem as me
and kept finding the same mis-information that I did.

Regards,
