also after I do a fresh scan for channels using one of the below mentioned programs i get this

as you can see it is detected quite well however it has trouble with getting decent tv frequncy range
i have tried using motv , xawtv and kdetv - kwintv they all get the same channel with fuzzy reception and no sound. does anyone know if this is a problem with the software i am using or
do i need to pass extra paremeters to the modules before loading them cheers
