I have one of the cards mentioned > (an MSI TV(at)nywhere A/D hybrid). I've decided not to throw it away. to not leave you without any response at least. In hind sight, seeing how unfortunate using such devices can be, mainly because of being forced to try at random again with a cold boot after some i2c war brought down the tuner, we better should have such only in a still experimental league and not as supported. This was not foreseeable in such rudeness and neither Hartmut nor me have such devices. The Asus triple OEM 3in1 I have does not have any problems with loading firmware from file, the others do all get it from eeprom. So, actually nobody is investigating on it with real hardware. Maybe you can catch something with gpio_tracking and i2c_debug=1. I would expect that the complex analog tuner initialization gets broken somehow. This is at least known to be good to bring all down.
