Nice to see another AV400 on this list. And then it's even one of those 
that I need to thank for their base work on getting the device to work :D
To introduce myself: I was the one who pursued Mike in the end to 
implement your patches and to get support into the mainline kernel. Also 
I did a fix for the cx2341x to enable correct audio support for our 
device and later (around February 2011) fixed a regression in that 
module. See also this thread:

I could only successfully test Composite + S-Video for Pal-B. So maybe 
Andrea lives in a country with different TV standard so some more could 
be tested as well :)

Yupp, the AV400 runs happily ever after since I had fixed the last 
problem that appeared at the start of 2011 :)
