This just means no valid Transport Stream was picked up. A Transport stream contains both a PAT and SDT to describe what services are available on this frequency. OK, there are only two things I can think of now, and both are clutching at straws.... 1) IRQ conflicts... do an 'lspci -v' or 'cat /proc/interrupts' and make sure nothing is sharing an IRQ. If there is a share, then do whatever you can to stop it happening - remove all expansion cards except the Nova (or AGP gfx.. ;) ,disable USB / serial / parallel / all on-board stuff in the BIOS and try again. If that still fails, put the Nova in a different PCI slot. These sound really desperate, but there have been a few documented cases on the list where this was the solution to weird problems - and although they concern users with 2 or 3 DVB cards, it's still worth a try. 2) Try the card in Windows! Make sure you don't actually have a duff one! :) It's a bizarre install - Windows installs it as a Network device - and when I tried it, I ended up having to set a static IP address for the Nova card... Very shoddy. Cheers, Gavin. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
