Jackpot! :) This is a very strong signal and will be perfect for watching TV 
:)

Mind you, I didn't expect it to work at all with 641866, when it should really 
have been 641833 - try that, in case it makes things even better... 

If not better signal, it should make the tuning process a lot faster.

No probs :)

Now give the 'dvbstream' stuff a go. There's no nice easy GUI interface to use 
a Nova-T under Linux, as there is with Windows... it's all based around 
running little scripts of dvbstream and mplayer :/

If you get yourself a cheap Dxr3 or Hollywood+ 'DVD' card off eBay (about 
£20), you can use the excellent VDR and make yourself an 'open source TiVo' 
with 'pause live TV', programme guide, on-screen display, etc.
