It works for SD material (at least for free receivable stations, I tried afair only QAM64), but did not for HD stations (QAM256). I have only access to unencrypted ARD HD, ZDF HD and arte HD (via KabelDeutschland). The HD material was just digital artefacts, as far as mplayer could decode it. When I did a dumpstream and looked at the resulting file size I got something about 1MB/s which seems a little too low, because SD was already about 870kB/s. After looking around I found a solution in increasing the isoc_dvb_max_packetsize from 752 to 940 (multiple of 188). Then an HD stream was about 1.4MB/s and looked good. I'm not sure, whether this is the correct fix, but it works for me.

I just tried, replacing
max_dvb_packet_size = em28xx_isoc_dvb_max_packetsize(dev);
by
max_dvb_packet_size = dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1];
but it did not work. Was this the correct replacement?
printk(KERN_INFO "dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1] is
%i\n",dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1]);
then said, dev->alt_max_pkt_size[1] is 0.
I also attachted a lsusb -v output for the Terratec Cinergy HTC Stick.
I don't know, which of these endpoints the dvb-c part is, but it may be
anyway usefull.
Regard,
Dennis
