Your card is derived from the Asus P7131 Dual and adjusted for the missing firmware eeprom and the new LNA on it. All reports I remember after that are just, that it works fine. Also, after testing a whole bunch of other cards in this league recently, it has a exceptional reception performance compared to others. There was one more report I remember, that analog from the on board 4pin connector doesn't work, either all others did never test and/or it is true. The lines on the PCB seem to talk a different language, but after looking around on current merchants, nobody announces the support for analog sound explicitly, but to keep the connector should be a waste of money else ... On the previous P7131 Dual, where all started, the two pins in the middle are ground and analog sound support works flawlessly. >From the drivers side, using saa7134-alsa sets the two mute off bits for digital and analog audio at once, if digital sound works, there is no known escape that analog sound should not work too. I don't have the slightest idea about, how well your recent sound card/chip is supported, but switching 5.1 and higher all to output might be an issue not to get input. Dunno. So, since no one else with that variant of the card gave a comment yet, connecting a appropriate cable to the on-board analog audio out and testing with some headphones left/right to ground stuff may be something to do. >From the driver's side, if it is connected, I'm not aware of anything that could stop it, since the from analog derived digital sound works. It is now exactly two years back, that we have support for such Asus cards. Exactly _one_ user had a disappointing experience with _one_ such card on _his_ PC, as far I know. :) And this is the result _on top_ of the DVB-T v4l-wiki currently. http://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-T_PCI_Cards#Asus I'm not related to Asus in anyway, they simply had one of the first those cards. They have never been bothered about it. So, I can't even say if they would have been willing to help or not. What is stated there currently is all, but for sure not the truth. Since I have been involved in getting those cards to work, I won't give the wiki censor, it is right that users tell what they found thereafter, but it also shows the whole stupidity of any wiki-mania, even the pictures are wrong and show a different device.
