This is based on work by Björn Danielsson, found at http://pvrusb2.dax.nu/. It's a userland only driver. Anyway, I can reliably tune chan 77(?) 505.25 mhz, but it's scrambled, I get the sound. I can also control bitrate and resolution. It's just the darned tuner. You need to turn the bitrate down if you don't have usb2 (I don't) because usb1 just can't handle the stream. TV, anything with frequencies really, isn't my forte so I'm just fumbling in the dark. Insight on how to choose frequencies would be helpful, I think I might be having ntsc vs pal problems. I won't get back to it for another week or so feel free to pick up where I left off. Cheers, --Mat --ikeVEW9yuYc//A+q--
