So are you saying that the latest DVB driver from the CVS at linuxtv.org
doesn't work (reliably) with your CAM, but the latest dvb-kernel driver
from the same CVS does?

If that is true, then - since the firmware is exactly the same in both - there
must be a difference in the diver source (presumably the av7110.c file) that
causes this. Would you mind looking over the dvb-kernel driver's version
of that file and comparing the relevant code areas with that in the DVB driver,
and maybe make the necessary modifications and tests so that we get a DVB
driver version that also works with these CAMs?
