I will try to reply to all your last mails with this

That's a common configuration.

mt352 is a dvb-t channel decoder. But you are right, the tda8275(a)
needs a tda8290 for analog tv. But this is integrated in the saa7131.

Right! its in the saa7131.

I think i know now how your card needs to be configured.
Something that seems not to be really clear for you is the configuration
of the so-called AGC (automatic gain control) of the tuner. This
needs to be switched according to the function the tuner is used for:
analog TV -> FM Radio -> DVB-T.
This is done with the 4052 analog mux and requires 2 control bits -> the GPIOs.
GPIO 21 is used to switch between analog TV and FM radio.
Typically GPIO21=0 -> analog TV, GPIO21=1 -> FM Radio.
In your case, GPIO22 is used to switch between DVB-T and analog while most cards
use GPIO1 of the tda10046 for this.

You should need to make chages only in saa7134-dvb, dvb_init()
- remove the old
	case SAA7134_BOARD_KWORLD_DVBT_210: (plus code)
-and add it to
	case SAA7134_BOARD_FLYDVBT_HYBRID_CARDBUS:

That should do it (though we should add a .antenna switch to the configuration).

Best regards
   Hartmut
