Hauppauge WinTV-NOVA-TD-Stick; unable to tune after a while

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a Hauppauge WinTV NOVA TD USB based DVB-T tuner
(http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-NOVA-TD-Stick).

For a while, it works just fine. Eventually, though, it stops working
- and can't tune in;

greg@greg-server:~/dvb$ scan uk.sudbury

etc. etc.

As soon as I reboot, everything kicks in to life again - for a while.
So, any idea what gives? Why does the device suddenly stop working
until I reboot? Is there anyway I can avoid a reboot? Hmm, just
realised as it's a USB device, a remove/insert may help, I will try
that next time it happens.

Is there anything else I could/should be looking at to help track down
the problem?

TIA for any thoughts,

Greg
