I have serious doubts whether this is actually supported. I see no mention of that board in the cx23885 driver. I wonder if there is a mixup between the ImpactVCB (which IS supported) and the ImpactVCB-e. > >> When I plug in my 01385 I get the same old stuff in dmseg, ie: >> >> cx23885 driver version 0.0.3 loaded >> [ 8.921390] cx23885[0]: Your board isn't known (yet) to the driver. >> [ 8.921390] cx23885[0]: Try to pick one of the existing card configs via >> [ 8.921390] cx23885[0]: card=<n> insmod option.

Look in drivers/media/pci/cx23885/cx23885-cards.c. Each card definition there defines the inputs that are supported by the card. There is no perfect match, so you will have to change inputs to see which input produces an image. You can also add a card definition yourself and just fiddle around with the vmux/amux/gpio values to see which work. It is probably something close to what is used by other Hauppauge cards. >> >> Etc. > Would the daily build resolve this?

There is no point in using the daily build. The cx23885 driver hasn't been updated in a long time.
