Glad to hear it's working. Could you provide specifics on what you've tested: 7 MHz, 8 MHz, UHF, VHF, AV1, AV2, AV3, and what Acer Box AV inputs correspond to what cx18 driver inputs? Also could you provide to me the verbose start-up logs you said failed to make it to the list? I'd like to see if any of your cards have the ZL10353 instead of the MT352. > Many thanks to Andy for all his work on this!

Get the EEPROM dump working for the MPC-718 working properly. It will hopefully be useful for identifying variants of the card in the future. 2. Change the function to init the mt352 DVB-T demodulator to read in a "firmware" file. The init sequence in my repository was extracted from the windows driver. I strongly believe I cannot have that committed to the Linux kernel, even though it is only 46 bytes from a 143 kilobyte file. I will also have to write an extraction tool to pull the sequence out of the windows binary and put instructions on a wiki page. I will need you to test both of these changes when I'm ready.
