Same Problem here since i use the API3 driver, with 2 Rev.1.3 DVBs. Tested
with dvb driver (2.4.21/22) and dvb-kernel cvs(2.6.0pre9). Those errors
occurs almost during epg-scan, but seems to be an driver problem.

If i leave my second card in an untuned state after load the driver an start
vdr (epg-scan off), the second card will go also in an unusuble state.

I think the problem is known by the developer, but still not fixed yet.

greetings
