Hello list, I have a Leadtek WinFast PxDVR3200 H that I am attempting to utilise with MythTV. The Wiki site states that experimental support exists for the DVB side and that "Successful tuning of typical Australian channels" has been achieved. I am able to create a channels.conf (attached) using scan, and am then able to tune using mythtv-setup, however none of these channels are viewable with the mythfrontend due to it being unable to gain a lock. Relevant bits and pieces: scan, using the latest it-Varese file scan is able to tune to three of the five transponders as per the attached file "scan". It also scans on 800000000Hz but I have no idea why. The file leadtek.dmesg contains the relevant info from dmesg (and messages.log) regarding the initialisation of the card itself. There are no error messages at any time (that I am aware of) despite all of my fiddling about. Of the three transponders that are in my channels.conf file, the third one (618000000Hz) causes an error when tuning in mythtv-setup. It states that channels are found but the tsid is incorrect. As such, only the first two successful transponders (706000000 and 602000000) are tuned by myth. When I attempt to view the tuned channels, myth is unable to gain a lock on any of them. The reported signal strength is about 58% and the S/N varies between 3 and 3.8dB. I am able to tune DVB-T channels on my TV using the same aerial cable but am wondering if signal strength is an issue. I am running it on Kubuntu with a 2.6.24-19 kernel, I have a recent version of the v4l-dvb tree (approx Nov 08) and am using firmware version 2.7. I haven't updated the drivers or the firmware as I have no reason to believe there are changes that would effect this. That said, if someone thinks there has been changes I will get straight on it. I am more than happy to provide more debugging info if required (if you are willing to tell me where else to look) and appreciate any help provided. Cheers Wayne
