I have had the issue with my Hauppauge WinTV Nova-TD 500 card and can always solve the problem by stopping tvheadend and reloading the kernel module for the card. Unchecking idle scanning in tvheadend reduces the need for this dramatically.
To reload the kernel module for WinTV Nova-TD 500 stop tvheadend and type
then start tvheadend again. It could take awhile before you get a signal again ( < 1 min )Code:sudo rmmod dvb_usb_dib0700
sudo modprobe dvb_usb_dib0700
BTW
Has anyone got teletext to work with tvheadend?
Thanks for that! I have the Nova-TD 500 aswell - however those step's haven't brought my signal back up. Waited for about 10mins now - it scanned in the muxes again, but no signal
Checked /proc/modules, and it's defo listed as dvb_usb_dib0700 (even tho it's PCI, I expect this is just the way the hardware is).
Anything else that can be reset, that might kick it all back to life?
