Hi,
Well, your list of modules looks okay, but try and reverse the order of loading
the tuner
and tda9887 modules.
(tda9887 should get loaded automatically by the tuner module, but it looks as
if the PAL
mode setting isn't passed into the tda9887 module).
Also not quite sure if your tuner needs this module, but what I've seen from a
few
datasheets is that most modern Philips multistandard tuners (ME versions?) use
this chip
to demodulate the signal into video/audio.
Are you getting any picture? Only static? Just a black screen?
If you're getting only static, is there a part of the frequency range that does
give a
picture? Try this with ivtvctl -r $(({freq_in_MHz}*16)).
Try frequencies in approx. the following ranges: 50-160MHz (low band),
160-442MHz,
442+MHz.
(these ranges are for my tuner, yours might be 10-20MHz off, don't have the
datasheet to
look up the details).
Of course it will help to have a list of frequencies from your cable company...
If this is not a problem, then you won't need to fix it ;-)
Regards,
Stanley.
