Strange. I use kaffeine and it works really well (except when getting errors
mentionned in 1.). I also tried to use w_scan as you talked about it, and it
works (output available at the end of this email).
So, I'm trying to understand your problems :
- Do you get errors? (in dmesg for example?)
- Does it work under Windows? / Are you sure your antenna is good?

I set up a Windows so I'm sure my Analog TV is working.
After having set "SECAM" and "france" in /etc/tvtime/tvtime.xml, I have run
tvtime-scanner and it seems to be successful:

However, I've seen a lot of errors related to tda18271 in `dmesg` and I can't
get any picture when running tvime. Do you also get that kind of errors?
In order to solve the 1st problem (TV sometimes not working), I also try to
boot under Windows in order to load the the original tda10048 firmware. Then, I
started my Linux box several times (without the firmware available in
/lib/firmware). After 4 boots, it fails so the firmware is probably not the
sources of our problems.
Then, I've started to read the sources and the documentation of the saa7134
chip. This documentation is not bad but it misses particularities of the
Hauppauge HVR1120 such as how the different chips are plugged together. Did
Hauppauge make this kind of documentation public? Does anyone know where can I
find it?
Thanks,
