OK. This problem was not easy to solve, and I'm afraid other users will
have the same problem. First, when I do a "modinfo tda9887", I don't
see these options port1, port2, qss, etc... I had to look in the source
code to discover them ! I think that the first step would be to make
these options appear in "modinfo" with a small description. Second, as
Eddy suggested, it would be better to add these hardware-specific tuner
settings somewhere in the documentation.

But I don't have access to PAL TV signals, because I am in France !

OK, so I can be confident that it will also work with PAL TV signals
with this option port2=0, right ?

I opened up the tuner of my KNC DVR board : my tda9887 also has 38
pins, and the tuner has the same filters as you (EPCOS K3953D and EPCOS
K9456D).
