You can do it with modprobe dvb-core dvb_override_tune_delay=800

You'll find the string in the frontend directory

Hello,

sorry, I can't help you, but maybe you can help me :-)

I am also facing such tuning problems but I didn't find any solutions.
This could be the first change.
Could you please tell where I have to change the value of
dvb_override_tune_delay.

I couldn't find such a string in the DVB-sources.

Thanks, Gerhard
