[ivtv-devel] [UNKNOWN CARD] - PVR-500MCE (vendor/device: 4444/0016, subsystem vendor/device: 0070/e807)

[Spirakis]

Hello --

 

I just purchased a new PVR-500MCE and I seem to be having a problem similar to:

 

http://www.mail-archive.com/ivtv-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg01444.html

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/ivtv/devel/17486

Alas, neither thread had any followups...

 

The full ivtv output is over 76K and I understand that won't make it onto the mailing list easily. Instead here are some (hopefully) pertinent facts:

I couldn't get wintv2000 running (missing dll?), but here is the WinTV2000 output from one of the other posts:

And when I look at the ivtv source code I see

 

tveeprom.c  ~line 257:

 

        { TUNER_ABSENT,        "Philips FQ1236A MK4"},

I was thinking about the return policy, but I can't tell if we're the tail end of an old board that no one is ever going to care about (or support) or whether we're the leading edge of new problems...

 

So, anyone got a Philips FQ1236A MK4 datasheet / application note lying around?
