Hello,
Please find below some news for A918R
[details @
http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/AVerMedia_AVerTV_HD_Express_A918R ]
* the patch proposed to automatically load the right modules for A918R
card is not yet available
=> http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg56659.html
(I don't exactly know what is missing to make it accepted).
This patch would at least avoid having to modify dvb-usb-ids.h & af9035.c
each time to test some git updates.
* previously, in December, the signal level detection was fuzzy and not
reliable.
Now, the reported signal level is strictly at 0000 (good antenna RF signal
confirmed with other device).
I am aware A918R card is not the most requested one (Express card), but
that's all I can add in case it can help, even for another card.
Regards.
see details below:
