I never suggested that. AFAIK the problem are bugs in the demodulator firmware binary (Sc_main.mc). If this is true then you should be able to reproduce the error under Windows, and complain to Technotrend/Hauppauge until they give you a working card or driver. If it works in Windows (with the same Sc_main.mc as used under Linux), someone has to find out what the Windows drivers do differently, maybe be using an I2C sniffer. I guess that unless it is confirmed that the Windows driver works flawlessly no one will spend any time trying to improve the Linux driver.
