Thanks Manu! I've added the following to modprobe.conf options dvb_core dvb_shutdown_timeout=0 dvb_powerdown_on_sleep=0 And tuning is now perfectly persistent. On a DVB-related note, I also have the TT-3200, which you apparently have been working on getting working with linux-dvb. Is there any further progress? I was never able to get the proper /dev/dvb entries to be created when I loaded your modules.

Dvbsnoop will work for a few seconds, and then no further data will be available.
