</font></span></blockquote></div><br>Ok, just a feedback on this one. I left only the transport for channel 9/Go/Gem with 125KHz offset, deleted all the channels and did a full scan again. This time I got a lock on all the channels including 9,Go and Gem. I'm on Lucid kernel 2.6.32-41 atm and the latest 0.25-fixes update.<br>
<br>As an additional note, I had to choose the Slim profile eventually to have everything working perfectly. With the other higher end profiles I had A/V stutter in LiveTv on some channels (HD ones usually) or/and recordings. <br>
<br>Thanks,<br>Igor<br>
