Happy ending.

I (newbie!) was informed of some basic facts on Hauppauge PVR 350.  
/dev/video0 is mpeg output while xawtv expects raw data.  So I now use mplayer to watch TV.

$ mplayer /dev/video0 

Set frequency (eg. cartoon networks)
$ivtv-tune -f147
-----------------------------------------

Actually I first messed around like this:

Search frequences:
$ for i in $(seq 400); do ivtv-tune -f$(( $i + 30 )); sleep 2; done

...
/dev/video0: 144.000 MHz
/dev/video0: 145.000 MHz
/dev/video0: 146.000 MHz  (Signal Detected)
/dev/video0: 147.000 MHz  (Signal Detected)
/dev/video0: 148.000 MHz
-----------------------------------------

That's it. 
Thanks.

Still: Any comments and improvements are welcomed.
