Maybe so - I haven't really checked yet. I'm still learning about this stuff....

Always, but at last my basic understanding appears to be correct. Can a V4L
device provide MPEG streams like a DVB device? How does it provide EPG type
info?

It's unbranded but carries a product code of
"VS-DVBT 355U"
Upon plugging the device, lsusb reports the device as
"Bus 1 Device 6: ID eb1a:e357 eMPIA Technology, Inc."
I've recently discovered that it contains a eMPIA 2870 device. As for any
others I'll discover tonight when I get home from work and open it up ...
Cheers
Mark
