[linux-dvb] STV0297 Tuning Issues

[Michael Ditum]

Hi,

I'm currently doing some tuning testing with the STV0297 DVB-C Card. I have
a DVB-S to DVB-C TransModulator which I am using and just modifying the
output settings.

I'm having some issues tuning in a couple of the test cases and was
wondering if there was any technical reason why this was not possible. The
tests I am having trouble tuning in are...

   1. Symbol Rate of 1.74MBd with QAM 32, 64 & 128 (works fine with QAM
   16 and 256)
   2. Symbol Rate of 3.48MBd with QAM 32 (works fine with all other
   QAM's)

I am testing the tuning with dvbtune and as long as the xml version of the
SDT is returned I am counting that as working.

Does anyone know why I cannot tune with these settings? Is it a problem with
the driver?

I've provided my test results below;

Thanks for any help

Mike
