Re: New Card: Compro VideoMate S300/S350 DVB-S

Hi Richard,

Strange, the Compro VideoMate T200 is listed as a saa7134 supported card 
(cards #70 or #71 I think). Just for interest sake, do you know which 
demodulator chip the T200 uses? I'd like to compare this with the 
ZL10313 used by the S300.

BTW, I did my S300 tests with Mandriva 2007.1 x86_64, with kernel 
2.6.17-14mdvcustom

Regards
JD
