Nothing good at all. Likely there is some breakage in the maths across devices/modules, often caused by different xtals/oscillators not sufficiently covered yet. For sure enough to get you out of the game for now. If Richard's card still works with latest v4l-dvb and his patch, likely you have slightly different hardware covered by the same driver too, including to hit a freq calculation bug exclusively. Can't tell from your input. The eeproms of yours and Richard's card differ in byte 0x74 and 0x75. Don't know what that means. Cheers, Hermann
