Maybe someone on the video4linux-list can test on it. Which of the P7131 Dual cards you have. The Dual Hybrid with LNA ? This one uses tda827x/tuner config = 2. This configuration I can test on the recently added Asus Tiger 3in1. We partly have heavy snowfall currently, but on the same DVB-T RF feed, with the most critical transponder for me in upper UHF, an Asus Tiger Revision 1 fails completely, too many errors, on a Medion Quad mplayer starts, but picture and sound are totally distorted and unusable currently. On the Tiger 3in1 almost all is fine, except some rare small artifacts from time to time. That means the LNA works for sure. The same goes for analog TV. It is easy to recognize if the LNA is active, since else sync issues after channel switching, a black bar passes the screen for a while and also some slight audio issues. Others reported sometimes flashing picture and humming noise on analog without correctly configured LNA. "hg head" on this machine is: changeset: 9575:d5e211683345 tag: tip parent: 9573:1251a4091b89 parent: 9574:2ab0045eb27b user: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxx> date: Tue Nov 11 07:42:37 2008 -0200 summary: merge: http://www.linuxtv.org/hg/~hverkuil/v4l-dvb-backport We are only 4 days apart, if LNA config = 2 should be broken at all later. --- Few minutes later with the current v4l-dvb installed on that one. Sorry, I seem not to be able to confirm your observation, at least the Asus Tiger 3in1 is still fine on that critical transponder. If I change the LNA config to 0, mplayer fails to start with only three good and 27 bad packages. Means for me the LNA works for sure.
