Hi Members

I've just got a Cine CT v6 card and have having a bit of trouble. I want to use dvb-t only, I've followed the instructions here...

http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Digital_Devices_DuoFlex_C%26T

The card is now appearing in /dev/dvb/adapter0 & /dev/dvb/adapter1. However only one frontend is showing up and if I try to scan dvb-t I get an error that I'm sure means I'm trying to use dvb-c tuner.

WARNING: frontend type (QAM) is not compatible with requested tuning type (OFDM)

I'm running on Ubuntu 11.10, 3.0.0-16 kernal. Is this something anyone else has come across or knows what I can do to use the dvb-t frontend?

Thanks
Edd

You can use dvb-fe-tool to switch the type of delivery system used as a default for old applications. In the near past the drivers of hybrid cards were changed so there's only one frontend for all delivery systems, since
they can only be opened mutually exclusive.

There should be an PPA at Launchpad with a recent version of the tools/utils, but I don't have the URL at the moment.

Regards,
Lars.
