I just bought the same card, and am having (probably) the same problem.

After fiddling around with the various card/tuner combinations, I found
out that *something* close to a mistuned TV could be obtained using the
tuner #33 (MT2032) (I am using the bttv driver from kernel 2.4.19).

After a search on the net, it appears that Pinnacle is indeed using a MT2032
tuner chip on the latest incarnations of the PCTV boards (see for example
http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/020627/270064_1.html ).

So far, I have not been able to get a correctly tuned picture, and tools
like 'scantv' don't find any channel. Composite video, however, works
properly.

Does anyone have other hints?

Thanks!
