Rolf-

Please do not remove the cc to the mailing list!

You have an old version of the cx88-blackbird driver, which does not yet support
the newer revision of the cx23416 firmware, released by Hauppauge Computer Works.

You can do one of the following:

a) use an older firmware (not recommended)

b) update your v4l-dvb drivers to the latest using mercurial on linuxtv.org:

howto  (at)  http://linuxtv.org/repo

c) apply this patch to enable support for the new firmware:

http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb?cmd=changeset;node=ad42afacf8f2b2d4dbb0ccb226cfc1ac8b4185d3;style=raw

Good Luck!
