Currently, after lots of code changes without any testers, empress devices have been always very rare, the support is broken and I try to track down last working status. Did some testing with an unsupported card recently, has also DVB-T, and I get everything to work except the encoder. What kernel version does still work for you? There is also the Behold M6 Extra now. http://www.ixbt.com/monitor/behold-m6-extra.shtml But this one fails, reported by Anton, even on 2.6.18, which seems to me the last kernel most likely still functional. I have tried on a Creatix CTX946. (saa7134 card=12 works,except encoder) http://www.creatix.de/produkte/multimedia/ctx946.htm But I don't get a valid format setup, which very likely is caused by the card is not hacked/correctly_configured yet. Beside ivtv, the cx88 driver has also lots of cards with mpeg encoder, so called blackbird design, but from what I hear the pvr150 and similar are for sure well supported.
