QAM is modulation type used for DVB-C, should be 64 in Germany.

Hi Achim & *.*,
I just tried it, and it always says: "could not tune to" + Frequencie. Seems
like this is only for the old driver, is that possible (tarball is dated
2001!) or do I have to change configuration somehow ?
Here's a line from my dtv_scan.conf:
set Cable_Transponders {
{330 C 6900}
Thanks for your advice,
Alex
