Antti:

You are great !

So as far as I am concerned, it would be great if one of the others could use up your work on the USB bridge, and add the IR remote interface, based on the LIRC framework. It actually should yield little code, and mainly requires a) understanding of LIRC and b) comparing code tables to that the in-kernel code tables can be re-used.

Note that Zdenek Styblik seems to have received updates from Realtek THIS month
http://wiki.zeratul.org/doku.php?id=linux:v4l:realtek:start

He has posted a Ver 2.2.0 of the driver at:
http://www.turnovfree.net/~stybla/linux/v4l-dvb/lv5tdlx/

It supports the RTL2832U and RTL2836 and way more tuners (MT2266 FC2580 TUA9001 and MXL5007T E4000 FC0012 tda18272 fc0013)

However, the code is not split up.

think he have given up since no noise anymore.

I have taken now it again up to my desk and have been hacking two days
now. Currently I am working with RTL2830 demod driver, I started it from
scratch. Take sniffs, make scripts to generate code from USB traffic,
copy pasted that to driver skeleton and now I have picture. Just
implement all one-by-one until ready :-) I think I will implement it as
minimum possible, no any signal statistic counters - lets add those
later if someone wants to do that.

USB-bridge part is rather OK as I did earlier and it is working with
RTL2831U and RTL2832U at least. No remote support yet.

I hope someone else would make missing driver for RTL2832U demod still...
