[linux-dvb] <200MHz frequencies

[Lauri Pesonen <lauri.pesonen@firsthop.com>]

Hi list,

A while back Kenneth Falck reported that he's TT-DVB-C card did not tune 
to frequencies below 200 MHz. Last week I got an answer regarding this 
issue from TechnoTrend where they acknowledged the problem and this week 
they said that I could donwload a new TT-PCI-budget card software from 
their site. I was under the impression that the problem would be hardware 
related, but apparently it was either software realted or they could do 
some kind of workaround in software/firmware. 

The problem is that we (me and Kenneth) are experiencing the same problem 
with the Linux driver; it won't tune to frequencies below 200MHz. 

Most LinuxDVB users have not encountered this problem (the same goes for 
TT) since all DVB bouquets in Germany are located in the higher frequency 
ranges. 

I tried to ask TT for some clues what they fixed, but I haven't heard from 
them since. I also asked them to cooperate with Convergence relating to 
the driver, but, as I said, I haven't heard from them since. 

I would really much like to see this problem fixed in the linux driver 
since 4 out of 7 bouquets in Finland are located below 200MHz. But I don't 
have any idea where to start fixing this. I'd assume that it's something 
in the firmware, but I don't really have a clue. 

Could the driver developers please comment on this?

Br, Lauri
