Hello, I recently brought a USB DVB-T Receiver. I would now like to get this device working under Linux (my favourite OS :). It is made by Kworld and is called a "USB 2870", it is a digital only device (not to be confused with the "USB 2880" which is a dual digital/analogue device). I believe it is based on EM28xx chipset as the window driver has the following files, ./emBDA.inf ./emBDA.sys ./emOEM.sys ./emPRP.ax ./emWHQL.cat ./TVEpaDrv.ini There appears to be work on a driver for these chip sets in the DVB tree. How far along is this driver and is it likely to work with this device (after a bit of work)? >From what I understand the first job would be to add an entry to the "em28xx_boards" and "em28xx_id_table" for my card. I've included the information from the embda.inf which is related to my device at the end of this email as I believe this should contain the information needed to construct this entry? I can include output of lsusb and usbview if it makes life easier. Obviously I don't expect you to do all the work to make this card work (specially since you don't have one!). However, I haven't coded for anything like a DVB card before and would appreciate any help. Thanks for your help!
