[linux-dvb] WinTV HVR-1800 analog Satus

Sun Mar 1 22:16:31 CET 2009

Any update on the status of analouge for this card? I really would  
like to switch back to Linux as my mce solution, but last time I did,  
the analouge was terrible, and I was getting no answers on the list...

Thanks,
Dustin Coates
