Hi, Matthias
Both lspci and dmesg EEPROM dump are exactly the same as the wiki.
Anyway, let's go with some feedback:
I've been trying the card with your patch. Apparently the adaptor
nodes are created (I solved yet the ordering issue), but I've been
unable to find any channel by using neither dvbscan nor Kaffeine. In
dvbscan I get these errors:
eduard@mediacenter ~ $ dvbscan -a 2
/usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/Astra-19.2E
scanning /usr/share/dvb/dvb-s/Astra-19.2E
using '/dev/dvb/adapter2/frontend0' and '/dev/dvb/adapter2/demux0'
initial transponder 12551500 V 22000000 5

DVB-S IF freq is 1951500

DVB-S IF freq is 1951500
WARNING: >>> tuning failed!!!
ERROR: initial tuning failed

Done.
In Kaffeine I can also see (during scan) that the signal level is
aproximately at 14% and SNR at 51-52%, but it doesn't find any channel.
Theoretically I'm getting the DVB-S signal through my main house
antennae cable (I double checked this with the installer), as the
dishes are on the top of the building and pointed to Astra 19.2, but I
don't know if maybe it's giving me a signal too slow for the card. ¿Do
you know if there is any amplifier in the card that needs activation
(Nova-T 500 does)?
Best regards, and thank you again for your hard work.

Hi,
¿Have you been able to make the DVB-S part work, so? I've been
trying these days using ZZam's patch only (Tino's one also mentioned in
the wiki doesn't apply for now), and I was completely unable to get a
lock on any frequency.
I thought it was because the driver was incomplete (without Tino's
patch...), but if it works for you then I'll probably need to check my
antenna, satellite, etc...
My card is the DVB-S Pro simple (not hybrid), but I don't think this
makes any difference.
Best regards,
Eduard Huguet

before.)
Hi Eduard, Peter!
@Eduard:
Can you please compare the dmesg output (especially the eeprom dump) of your
card to the one listed on the wiki-page.
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/AVerMedia_AVerTV_DVB-S_Pro_(A700)
@Peter:
1. Maybe you want to start a page in the wiki dedicated to your card.
Or should we check for similarity and merge both of these cards into one page?
At least I am interested in the eeprom content of your card.
I should request some schematics from Avermedia to maybe get gpio controlling
correct. (Like resetting chips, ir ...)
Regards
Matthias
