Driver for STK7700D?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi (Matthias?),

i have also a STK7700D tv-tuner card.
Can anybody inform me with any updates regarding the letter to
Microtune for Linux support?

(i know that it is 2 years since Matthias sent the letter and probably
he is not on the list any more,
but its never bad to try...)

Has anyone else any infos about this tuner?
Is the driver[1] for MT2266 chip compatible?


Thanks in Advance,
 Kostis
