With the ivtv driver, I helped debug the LG TAPE-H series tuner on the
PVR-150MCE not demodulating FM radio.  (Hans actually got the fix put
in.)  The problem turned out to be the incorrect "bandswitch byte" being
set in tuner-simple.c.  AFAICT, the gpio values for the CX23416 aren't
used to set the FM radio on the PVR-150MCE.

There is a "bandswitch byte" in the synthesizer/1st mixer chip (probably
a tua603x chip) in the tuner that controls some gpio pins.  These gpio
pins setup the tuner's preselector by switching in the proper bandpass
filter for the Low VHF, FM, High-VHF, or UHF bands

For the FM1216ME_MK3 tuner (not the FMD1216ME_MK3) this bandswitch byte
needs to be set to 0x98 for FM stereo or 0x9a for FM mono.

I notice in tuner-simple.c:simple_radio_bandswitch(), that for both the
FM1216ME_MK3 and the FMD1216ME_MK3, the bandswitch byte for FM is coded
as 0x19.  This is a bit-reversal of 0x98.  This seems wrong according to
the FM1216ME_MK3 tuner datasheet here:

http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/datasheets/tuners/FM1216ME_MK3.pdf

I can't find the FMD1216ME_MK3 datasheet with some quick google
searches.  I cannot conclusively say the coded bandswitch byte of 0x19
is wrong for the FMD1261ME_MK3, but I think it's worth some
investigation/experimentation.

You might also want to check/fix the tuner-simple.c:tuner_stereo()
function while you're at it.

Good luck,
Andy
