Hi,
I've a problem with new version of MyCinema 7131H, one with NXP chip
(saa7131E, tda10046A).

On boot, system fail to load firmware for tda10046, showing a wrong firmware revision number (normally 80, but sometimes other numbers).

If I reboot (not shutdown & power up!), or if I unload all saa7134* modules from memory and reload saa7134-dvb, firmware is loaded correctly with revision 20...

Note: I never had this problem with old Philips-brand Asus P7131H.

thanks in advance,
Francesco Ferrario

After reading "unstable tda1004x firmware loading", I've found a little workaround (not a solution, but...) for this problem...

Simply adding "saa7134-dvb" to /etc/modules, make a successful firmware loading on boot.
(My system is an Ubuntu 7.10)
