Ahhhh...I was using somthing like -pp=0x2000, which was on some stuff I
found a long while back! Your options work a treat: cheers.

Are other people with Nova-T cards having problems with dvbtune? I was
using it to scan for stream info using the -i option and whatever MUX I
tell it to tune to, it gives the same XML output, and then only about
every third time it is run! This is dvbtune 0.4 with DVB drivers from
cvs.

All was very confusing for a few days: (supposedly) different MUXs
giving out the same info! Then I found dvbscan (part of dvbsak) and that
works a treat, every time!

I now have all the UK freeview channels working, which is nice!

Cheers,

Laz
