I am using a PVR-500, but I am on an old version of FreeBSD (6.4-stable, long story, search the archives of this mailing list if you are interested) and I might not use this driver (can't remember). However, I do remember that the setchannel program (pvr250-setchannel) can behave a bit peculiar. Does it help if you select a band and frequency on the tuner input first? Then try to change input to something else? HTH -- Torfinn Ingolfsen
