Technotrend S2-1600

A FTA PCI DVB-S2 card from TechnoTrend.

Components Used

PCI Bridge Philips SAA7146
Demodulator ST STV0903B
Tuner ST STV6110A
LNB ISL6423

The ST STV0903 demodulator is pin compatible to the STV0900 but provides only one tuner link.

The ST STV6110A Tuner supports QPSK, 8PSK, APSK16, APSK32 Modulation, however, the demod doesn't support APSK.

Identification

Vendor: pci 0x1131 "Philips Semiconductors"

Device: pci 0x7146 "SAA7146"

SubVendor: pci 0x13c2 "Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH"

SubDevice: pci 0x101c

Status

The SAA7146 is supported by Manu Abraham's driver ([[1]]). Some people in this (german) VDR board added this card to the driver at the end of april 2009. One Day later the development was committed to http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb.

However, this is still some initial support an might need some more testing.

[Update 2014/04/22] Card drivers are in kernel now, no special driver needed. Works great. For Diseqc you might need to use a patch from Guy Martin. At least I do ;) ([[2]])

-Question:
-Is this still true? I'm running this card with plain kernel 2.6.36 for more than a year now. So it seems quite stable ....
