I've seen it. But I can't make anything useful out of it.

This is the output on the "good" first card.
# ivtvctl -d /dev/video0  -R
 ioctl VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY ok
 Frequency = 8820

The same card reports 
   tuner 1-0061: Tuner mode:      analog TV
   tuner 1-0061: Frequency:       551.25 MHz
   tuner 1-0061: Standard:        0x000000ff
When i do
#ivtvctl -d /dev/video0  --log-status

The other card says it is tuned in on the same frequency:
# ivtvctl -d /dev/video1  -R
ioctl VIDIOC_G_FREQUENCY ok
Frequency = 8820

But when i requests a log-status it says this:
#ivtvctl -d /dev/video1  --log-status
   tuner 2-0061: Tuner mode:      radio
   tuner 2-0061: Frequency:       0.55 MHz
   tuner 2-0061: Standard:        0x000000ff
   tuner 2-0061: Signal strength: 32768
   tuner 2-0061: Stereo:          yes

I have tried for days to see, if there is some parameter that is set different 
on the cards, but i can't seem to find any.

I have tried it with no success..

Is it possible to initialize the cards to certain values on boot? (Freq, ect)

Regards
