Personally I'm finding the latest driver as above is much better than its
NEWSTRUCT predecessor on the weak signal I'm getting here - dvb-t Crystal
Palace.

dvbstream -c 1 -qam 16 -cr 3_4 -ps -f 505833 -o 640 641

Download dvbtune from the same cvs source as dvbstream. You'll find a
script for frequencies from CP. 505833, 529833, 578166 and 537833 all now
require -qam 16 -cr 3_4 parameters.
