Hi, Does anyone knows how to get this card work on linux : AverMedia Volar Black HD (A850) lsusb id is : 07ca:850a I tried this project : http://linuxtv.org/hg/~anttip/af9015_aver_a850/ which seems to be specifically for this card but it does not work (The .num_device_descs has not been correctly set). I tried to fix the .num_device_descs and also tried to add my card in the af9015.c file of the official v4l-dvb project. My card is now correctly detected and dirs are created in the /dev/dvb, but it seems initialization fails : Here is my log : Mar 29 12:31:52 blastor kernel: [ 1158.173568] dvb-usb: AVerMedia A850 successfully deinitialized and disconnected.
