Making it Work

As of 1st November 2010, this card is still not supported by the V4L-DVB tree. However, very minor changes as documented on Mr. Liplianin's changeset 14355 are required to make it work.

The simplest way is to download Mr. Liplianin's current source code and compile;

hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin/

make

make install

reboot
