Yeah probably. That's an old ivtv legacy strategy that I'm not even sure made sense then. Anyway, Toshiba has indicated that they wouldn't/couldn't provide information for me to add support for the digital side of their cards. The best I can do is add support for the analog side of their cards having the end user iteratively experiment. I don't have time for that. A supported USB Analog/DVB-T hybrid unit is probably a better solution for TV on a laptop under linux, than toshiba's card.
