Ok. Your card and cable are working fine ! Nice !

So now let's try changing the setup.conf ! But bne sure that vdr is stopped
before changing the file as vdr saves the setup.conf file before leaving (well,
that's what I noticed !)...

By the way, before doing that ! Did you load the DXR3 plugin when starting vdr ?
Because even if you use the wrong primary device for input, you should at least
see the OSD on the TV !

Hope it helps.
