Ok.

The av7110 driver from "dvb-kernel" has two sides: the "analog" video 
output you see on your screen is controlled via Video4Linux-2, the 
"digital" stuff (especially tuning) is controlled via the DVB API.

So unless DVB-tuning support is added to tvtime, you need to tune using 
a separate tuning solution, for example czap or dvbtune.
