Are there any instructions for using this experimental code? I am currently working off http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb
the experimental tree is just the same as http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb it just includes support for around 60 more devices http://linuxtv.org/repo/ (just replace http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb with http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb-experimental) The code isn't tied to the em28xx in the experimental tree (it's used with cx88, saa7134 and em28xx) Best would be to look at em2880-dvb how it's implemented there. http://mcentral.de/wiki/index.php/Em2880#Installation the installation instruction for em28xx based devices should also apply for your version. best regards, Markus
I have the correct firmware for this card but I don't know how to 'package' it to work with the 3028 driver. Where possible I certainly want to use reuse the existing code. The T750 is a SAA7134(5) based PCI card. The card also has digital based on the XL10353 and QT1010.
