This sounds like exactly the problem that I have. I can sometimes get it back doing the trick you mention, but not more often than 1 in 10 times. Usually it just dies permanently and only comes back when I reload the dvbtt-pci module > I did not tested the composite out ever, because i just watch at the computer. > But i use a patched driver for my card, which fixes the problem for me that > the frontend takes several seconds to lock.

My card takes about the same time to lock (second or so) as my set top box, but it seems pretty slow to me, especially as the card is often already on the right multi-plex...
