Hello,

I'd like to buy a LifeView FlyDVB Trio card (analog TV/radio, DVB-T and
DVB-S in one) but the DVB-S part isn't currently supported by Linux.

Do you have any info about DVB-S being supported soon or something like
that? I don't want to buy something that won't work in near future...

Is that a TDA10086 chip? If so, I am intending to support it soon.

If only I know... Google is quiet and LifeView's website says nothing.
The only thing I know for sure is that there is an SAA7134 chip :-/

yes, 10086+8262


Cool - the card here is a FlyDVB single DVBS card with 10086+8262, so hopefully it will be similar (for the DVBS bit :)


yess, but there's a complication in my case: the Trio has dual dvb input: 1 -t and 1 -s. How will the driver export the second frontend? adapter0/{dvr1,frontend1,demux1,net1} ?
although for testing purposes I can disable the -t input, of course :)

The easiest would be: make it an insmod option. But i hope there will
be a better solution.

Hartmutt, do the drivers for the saa7134 need modification to add support for the second dvb frontend?

I don't think so. The SAA7134 just receives the transport stream and
tranfers it to memory. As long as the tda10086 also provides a parallel
stream with the appropriate control signals, there should be no problem.
There might be some switching logic that needs to be controlled, but
i don't think so. I guess it is just tristating and enabling the
outputs.

Lets see.
