I don't know that specific tuner.<br>
<br>
This reminds me of an old problem I used to have with DVB usb
tuners. Tuning failures after a long period, could be minutes, hours
or days.<br>
<br>
The output of the dmesg command from a terminal would be useful
after a normal restart.<br>
<br>
Have you tried a cold restart of the PC i.e. total power off
(shutdown and remove the power cord for say 5 minutes and then put
the power cord back in and restart) ? This is not a fix but would
ensure a complete reboot and reload of any firmware in the DVB stick
. Again output from the dmesg command once the PC has restarted.<br>
