Subject: [linux-dvb] Switching mono/stereo at runtime in saa7134

This might be OT, since it concerns the analog bits of the saa7134 
driver. If so I'd be grateful for directions to the correct forum.

My issue:
I experience a "warble" in the audio on some (weak) NICAM stereo 
channels. The only way to make the sound bareable is to load the kernel 
module with  audio_ddep=4 (I'm in Norway).  This disables the nicam 
sound and uses the old-fashioned mono. I'm wondering if there is a way 
to turn the NICAM sound back on selectively without disturbing my 
recording ? I.e. I would like the effect of reloading the  saa7134 
module without the audio_ddep option, without actually unloading the 
module.

This would of course be unneeded if the automatic switching between mono 
and stereo on a weak signal was a tiny bit less trigger-happy, 
suggestions for how to adjust the thresholds would of course be even better.
