Hi Patrick, I'm writing you about a problem with Terratec Cinergy T-Express DVB-T USB card. The card is recognized by kernel, after compiling v4l-dvb sources (v4l-dvb-fd679bbd8bb3.tar.gz). Despite all, kaffeine and w_scan utility are not able to receive any channels. I've downloaded the required firmware from here: http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/home/files/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.20.fw What can I do? I used recent Linux distributions with kernel 2.6.31, but with no luck.

It seems that your reception quality is not good enough. Which means, that either the antenna or the hardware or the driver are not correctly set-up/written for your board.
Can you try the windows driver which with the same antenna position? best regards, -- Patrick http://www.kernellabs.com/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
