It's definitely not a "woodbury", but if the woodbury configuration is working for you, then it could be similar. The really strange thing is that I have a device in my hand with usb ID 05e1:0400 . I opened it up, and there is an mt2130 and an au8502. This is _not_ a tda18271c2 and an au8522. So, the fact that the tda18271c2 + au8522 driver combination is working for you tells us that multiple configurations are out there that all have the same usb ID. or, by some strange chance, the my2130 in your stick might be tuned to some default frequency that just happens to have channels. I asked you if you were able to receive multiple channels -- are they all on the same frequency, or are they on different frequencies? Would it be possible for you to open up the device and take some hi-res digital photos? > I just upgraded to 2.6.27 and it doesn't work anymore.

I will have to take a look into this -- I haven't tested 2.6.27 enough, myself. If there is a problem, then we'll have to fix it for the 2.6.27.y stable series. > dmesg from 2.6.27 (not working): > usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2 > usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice > usb 1-2: New USB device found, idVendor=05e1, idProduct=0400 > usb 1-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 > usb 1-2: Product: USB 2.0 Video Capture Controller > usb 1-2: Manufacturer: Syntek Semiconductor > au0828 driver loaded > usbcore: registered new interface driver au0828 > usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio > > dmesg from 2.6.24 (working): > usb 1-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 > usb 1-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice > au0828: i2c bus registered > tveeprom 1-0050: Encountered bad packet header [ff].

Auvitek is the chip manufacturer. Lets go with the name "Syntek" for now. I've seen this in retail packaging using the name, "Syntek Teledongle" ... _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
