The OP was talking about the older 110 to begin with...so he already has one ;) On my setup, with an ATSC 120 (not the 110), power cycling or rebooting is still necessary to switch between analog/NTSC and digital/ATSC modes. Trying to load both DVB and V4L drivers either renders the card inoperable, or one or the other mode simply won't work. In my case, for example, loading the analog driver (modprobe cx8800) followed by the DVB drivers (modprobe cx88-dvb) results in working analog mode, but digital mode is defunct. Rebooting and loading either of the two alone results in that mode working fine indefinitely. Has there been a change to the driver that I'm not aware of? I'm curious... -- "There are some things in life worth obsessing over. Most things aren't, and when you learn that, life improves."
