Mauro (cc'd) generally maintains that driver and he should be able to help. My suggestion is that you cut/paste the attach/config struct from your leadtek code into this email thread. From you email address I guess you're trying to get DVB-T 7MHz working in Australia. Mauro can review it. Ideally, we'd point you at a different card struct for the same tuner that we know works in Australia, so you build the leadtek config struct based on something that we know works. Mauro, what should the attach/config struct look like for a xc2028/3028 tune in Australia? Can you point to a working example or suggest a change?
