Making it Work

This card is not supported. Further work is blocked on development of the SAA716x driver.

Firmware

This card may require firmware. There is no reason to assume that standard firmwares currently available for the tuners and demodulators will not work.

Drivers

Users wanting to attempt can try the experimental drivers for the SAA716x.
