Hi.
I'm trying to tune a Hauppauge Nova S Plus into the FreeView channels,
attempting to follow the instructions at
http://www.wlug.org.nz/FreeViewMythTvSetup.
Depending upon which transponder I try to tune with dvbtune I either get no
lock or get a lock but a FRONTEND DEVICE error
The TVNZ transponder:
# dvbtune -f 1183000 -s 22500 -p h -m
Using DVB card "Conexant CX24123/CX24109"
tuning DVB-S to L-Band:0, Pol:H Srate=22500000, 22kHz=off
ERROR setting tone
: Invalid argument
polling....
Getting frontend event
FE_STATUS:
polling....
Getting frontend event
FE_STATUS: FE_HAS_SIGNAL
polling....

then it continues polling.
On the TV3 transponder (or a SKY one for that matter)
# dvbtune -f 1156000 -s 22500 -p h -m
Using DVB card "Conexant CX24123/CX24109"
tuning DVB-S to L-Band:0, Pol:H Srate=22500000, 22kHz=off

Myth certainly isn't running and I have the following modules loaded (I get
the same problem immediately after I modprobe them):
