hi, the newer drivers _don't_ tune to a channel on load, so having a
black tv with the convergence copyright info _is_ OK.
also vdr did not complain (no ... device found, or alike don't show up, but 
device 1 (the first) gets used without problems).

you will need a channels.conf matching your setup:
- cable operator (mux used, freq used, ...)
- auto pid or non auto pid syntax

so i see no problem to solve, if you do please respond with more info.

Regards Onno
