Oh, I did not mention. I live in hungary, the used standard is PAL, 
which PAL, i don't know.

Strange, because it worked about two weeks ago. It is possible in theory, 
that the provider changed something, but I hardly believe it.

No, it sets NoTuner by default for me, see below. With which tuner type 
do you use it? 

And what about the message "Encoder Firmware can be buggy,..." sould I
use another firmware, has it any influence to the tuner? From where could 
it be downloaded?

thx,
