Re: HVR 1300: DVB channel lock problems since 2.6.28

["ldone@hubstar.net" <ldone@hubstar.net>]

Hi, all I can say is that the HVR-1300 works fine over here, with the
latest code and stock code from SUSE.

Have you tried Kaffeine, and scan to see what they get?

You have a firmware error in the log you posted,
You could also pull down the latest firmware files
http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmware/
I think from memory you need 3 of them.
