Available from 20th Oct on so in 11 days. There are not many
competitive devices (none) available for
linux which deliver such support. On the other side it's not kernel

It's also  entirely supported by all participating companies.
this is a mailing list for the open source dvb drivers
you are talking about a closed source solution
what does your solution have to do with linuxtv.org?

I see linux-media, you can find the sources of a patched tvtime version on the
website.
It shows an alternative way how to integrate usb chipsolutions in linux.
Aside of that the official DVB(3/5)/V4L(1/2) API has been reviewed
through our work and bugreports have been
submitted to various places (linux media, some linux distributions).
It integrates
flawlessly and helps to improve the overall media support with linux.

The posting was pointing out to Ali's email that he was looking
for a working analog TV solution for France. He has bought this
Pinnacle device 3 years ago,
the vendor does not care about support for it.
We provide solutions which work within a few seconds, nevermind what
distribution.

Your business is so bad that you can't even pay to an adds on some magazine, for
you to spam the open source mailing lists as a desperate trial to sell a single
unit of your product?

Please stop spamming.

The answer was responsive to the question, a couple of links to software which might serve. I would think your going off about it was further off-topic, it certainly didn't help the O.P. any. When someone ends a question with "please help" I would assume that any answer would be better than "we're working on it." Answering an on-topic question with a short list of links is hardly "spamming" or even advertising, it's called being polite and helpful.

I would rather run commercial software on Linux that open source on Windows, thanks, if those are the choices.

After several months of looking I have yet to find any video app that a typical office worker can use. Something no more complex than xawtv, which has been running fine on FC4 and FC6 for these folks. I would certainly consider a commercial solution rather than have them go back to the dark side of the force and Windows-7.
