Tried it and it still suffers the same problem. However I tried it on a
non-DVB recording and it worked fine. 

Tried the tzap stuff and I get lines like this:

status 1f | signal 002a | snr ffff | ber 00000000 | unc 00000000 | FE_HAS_LOCK

But I'm not sure how to interpret it, or whether I should have something
like dvbstream running simultaneously. 

Thanks

Mike
