It takes longer. FSC Rev1.3 + SS 2.6b. DVB naturally FSC only. But as there 
are no recordings ongoing only the FSC should tune as it is the first card. 
Channel change time is around 1-2 sec or more in opposite to nearby instantly 
if DVB is used. Stability is a lot better with dvb-kernel. I have vdr running 
now since nearly 5 days w/o reloading the driver. Normally i had vdr and/or 
driver crashing once a day or once in two days. But this can be related to my 
new board too or that I'm using a multiswitch with an own PSU. Maybe i should 
testdrive DVB with my new setup.
