Emtec S830

This is a DVB-T USB Stick with dual tuners, remote control, and 'diversity' tuning capabilities (not sure about the last)

05/12/2007 Not working with v4l-dvb hg on kernel 2.6.22-14

=> after adding the usbid as described in the patch above I get the exact same result as the user in the mailinglist .. led goes on , modules are loaded, but no lock on frequencies. I also downloaded the firmware , cause i didn't have that yet;

wget http://www.wi-bw.tfh-wildau.de/~pboettch/home/linux-dvb-firmware/dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw
sudo cp dvb-usb-dib0700-1.10.fw /lib/firmware

It should be behaving like a Pinnacle PCTV Dual DVB-T Diversity (PCTV 2000e USB)

I opened up the stick (see pics below) and checked what was inside; it seems to be the same as what what modules are loaded

Its says PD-870 on the PCB though emtec sells it as S830, so clearly some rebranding is going on
