Thomas Arnold:
 |I'm having a neat problem with  FXTv.
 |While watching SOME channels ( freq def cableirc ) occasionally the
 |channel will fade to bright white then lose hold.  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.
