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 scanning uk.sudbury using '/dev/dvb/adapter0/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter0/demux0' initial transponder 698167000 0 3 9 1 0 0 0 initial transponder 850000000 0 2 9 3 0 0 0 initial transponder 690167000 0 2 9 3 0 0 0 initial transponder 618000000 0 3 9 1 0 0 0 initial transponder 738000000 0 3 9 1 0 0 0 initial transponder 706167000 0 3 9 1 0 0 0 initial transponder 754000000 0 2 9 3 0 0 0 >>> tune to: 698167000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_AUTO:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!! >>> tune to: 698167000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_3_4:FEC_AUTO:QAM_16:TRANSMISSION_MODE_2K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE (tuning failed) WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!! 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 [I'm actually running on a Intel Core Du oMac Mini, so it's an Intel chipset, FWIW] _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
