This parameter had no effects on the tests I did with ntuxzap and the
WinTV-Nova card (only card with new frontend I have). On the card with
AV7110 there could of course be timing issues in the initialization 
which depend on the used frontend and only surface when an initial 
channel is selected. 
There is nothing I can do about this myself right now. Please send me 
patches if you find out more.
