CHanging teh channle |back and forth will resync it. Sometimes it loses hold instantly and |sometimes it will sync up for a while. | |Brooktree driver is v1.3 |fxtv is v.42 | |I've tried using freq.c to tweak the channel frequency up or down a couple |notches and that doesn't seem to help. Lower channels seem to on average |hold better. Bernie was also mentioning this and said that an upgrade to XFree 3.3 fixed it; might try that. I've not seen this specific problem myself -- just seen the tuner lose vertical lock and sometimes eventually just quit capturing. Randall
