OK, so I have replaced the Sundtek USB DVB-C stick
with an Hauppauge 292e
one and I get HDTV. I also get a lot more channels, so there was a
hardware problem.
Kaffeine tends to freeze and sometimes crash however (sorry to say that it
works far better on Windows).
There is something I'd like to try: on starting DVB, Keffeine
says "Deinterlace on" - it takes some time after that to get a picture,
sometimes frozen, then most of the time it does work.
There seems to be a way to turn deintelace off, but I haven't found it
yet. There is nothing about it in kaffeinerc, maybe I should add a line?
Does anyone know?

But Kaffeine is xine based. Did you try with other ex mplayer based or vlc?
I ported kplayer exactly for that reason - it works much better (in terms of
features) with my DVB-T stick. Before DVB it was the only one doing analog
channels properly and with the appropriate config file DVB is a charm.
However since we moved out of the city, we don't have good signal. Never
mind, I suggest trying another player and if it is not a kernel/driver
issue you will enjoy it.
