thanks for your quickly answer,
i did it, but dtv_scan (step-width down to 1Mhz) can't find anything. also
vdr, started with the correct freq/symb.-rate in channels.conf - nothing.
modifications in dvb.c (init_chan) - no effect. the units of
freq./symb.-rate of win-software is verified and correct (comparision with
the working telekom-signal).
it seems, that the driver switch to a function mon_zigzag (...), and the
dvb-tuner hangs-up. by connection with telekom-cable, the mon_zigzag () will
not called.

best regards

holger
