Kaffeine Television Issues

If I try to watch Television with kaffeine I keep getting no available device found errors. However, I am able to use mplayer to watch television. E.g. if I want to watch BBC 1 I do:-

mplayer dvb://"BBC ONE"

and everything works fine.

I've got the following hardware:-

05:00.0 Multimedia video controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder (rev 05)
05:00.2 Multimedia controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder [MPEG Port] (rev 05)
05:00.4 Multimedia controller: Conexant Systems, Inc. CX23880/1/2/3 PCI Video and Audio Decoder [IR Port] (rev 05)
05:01.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)

and this is my current kernel module list below.  Any help much appreciated please - thanks:)

Re: Kaffeine Television Issues

I also have that card, and I get that error sometimes. Haven't worked out why but when I reboot the problem is fixed and it only happens sometimes, usually it happens after I have been playing music collection but its seems random. Sometimes does it and sometimes doesn't. If I find the reason I'll post here. Maybe you could post the output of dmesg, it may show something

Re: Kaffeine Television Issues

There's nothing in dmesg. I've never been able to get kaffeine to play television but mplayer television is fine. Weird
