First of all, you shoould use the most recent drivers from the CVS.
There might be 2 versions of this card. One is almost identical to the
Lifeview Duo. This one should work but it doesn't perform well.
There is a new design with a new tuner. I am working on this one.
If you use the driver from CVS, it might tell you that the tuner
is tda8290+75a. In this case, it is the new design.
Best regards
