Hmm, after some googling, it turns out the STV0297 is for Cable systems ???
I've managed to write some code, with a lot of variables to be renamed still. Now I'm at the point if I should continue, since my SS2 is definately a satellite card, but Google tells me it's a cable chip, so I might be reversing the wrong tuner ?
