After tuning to a "trouble" station with dtvsignal......

What do the lights on the back of the card look like ?
   ....Any red at all means there are unrecoverable errors in the
stream. ie your signal actually sucks, even though you thought it was
good.....

What doesn't "mplayer -vo xv /dev/dtv -cache 8192" do for ya ?
  ... optionally put "-tsprog [1-9] "  on the end of that line,
adjusting the digit for the substations you're trying to get in. PBS
in particular has many......

god I hate HDTV lately..... I feel your pain.
