A PCI interface chipset initially intended as Multimedia interface for analog Audio and Video. Has been raped to pack the sampled MPEG-2 Transport Stream data into the video lines. Works surprisingly well in most setups, only a few have problems with high data loss. Superceeded by the SAA7134 which has a digital stream interface.
Used e.g. by the old Siemens DVB cards, most TechnoTrend PCI cards, the KNC1 DVB cards and TerraTec DVB cards.
