Thanks for the reply! I had no idea that it would be that complex.

From the moment I joined this mailing board in order to add the information 
above, I received no less than 193 e-mails! It's great to see that are that 
many 
people working on linux drivers! Good luck and keep up the good work!

But (unfortunately) for the computer digital television receivers there 
is very few developers :-] Linux-Media contains much stuff, two APIs DVB 
and V4L2, and most development is happening currently on V4L2 interface.

2012-08-02 Thread Dutchdude
I just subcribed to maillinglist to comment that there is probably some
misunderstanding about the Elgato EyeTV One: It is not a Mac-only product, it is
also on the market for Windows. In the Netherlands, Elgato EyeTV One is the only
product available for receiving TV Channels that are not free to air.

In the Netherlands, only the national public television channels Nederland 1,
Nederland 2, Nederland 3 and a regional public television channels are made
available free-to-air. DVB-T transmissions in the Netherlands are provided
commercially by KPN daughter company Digitenne. They offer 25 TV channels and 16
radio channels (which is growing). 

In order to receive the TV channels that are not free to air, a smartcard is
needed. IMHO, Elgato EyeTV One is the only product on the Dutch market that is
compatible with this smartcard.

Bear in mind that this may not actually be the same product.  Many of
these vendors release multiple products with the same name.  Hence the
EyeTV One sold in the Netherlands may be different than the one that
started this thread.  This is especially likely since your product has
a smartcard reader (and I don't think Tim's product does).

 Hi,

 I was wondering if the Elago eyetv one is on the list for (near) future 
 support.
 I've tried to make te device work with the settings of other eyetv
 devices but wit no luck.

 I have attached a lsusb log for mor info on the device.

To my knowledge nobody is working on it.  In general the Mac products
tend to be much more expensive than their Windows equivalents, and
thus very few developers own units to test/debug with.

For example, I added support for one of the original EyeTV products
which I added the driver support for, but it was a fluke that it fell
in my lap.  I wouldn't have gone out and spent $129.00 to buy one just
to add Linux support for it.
