A DVB-C PCI card from TerraTec.
Overview/Features
Looks to be a clone of the Azurewave/Twinhan AD-CP400 (VP-2040) [1]
Components Used
- NXP/Philips CU1216 module
- NXP/Philips TDA10023 (demodulator)
- Mantis (bridge)

Making it Work
The card is working under Linux using the Mantis driver. Kernel 2.6.28 released on 24.12.2008 works with the mantis driver in the s2-liplianin repository.
The mantis-multiproto driver has been tested with Ubuntu Hardy (2.6.24?) on the 28.11.2008. CAM/CI is not working with current mantis for me. I have a crash when scanning or zapping with the CAM inserted. Take the CAM module out if you have one for the moment! (Is this also true for the new driver??)
Firmware
No firmware required.
Drivers
Kernel Driver
The Mantis Driver is now ( since 2.6.33 ) part of the vanilla linux kernel[2].
The driver seems to work for this card.
Current S2API Driver
This is the recommended driver. Install the latest mantis drivers like this.
sudo apt-get install mercurial linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential hg clone http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin cd s2-liplianin make sudo make install sudo reboot
If you have a distribution which uses DKMS (like Ubuntu), Mantis with DKMS is a convenient way to install the driver and keep it running for new kernel releases.
There have been some problems with the s2-liplianin repository (only works for 30 minutes) and a fix that has worked for someone is to use http://jusst.de/hg/v4l-dvb instead of http://mercurial.intuxication.org/hg/s2-liplianin. You should/could also use the sudo make menuconfig and remove all the unnecessary modules.
Old Multiproto Driver
Old mantis-multiproto repository instructions. May not compile with latest kernels.
cd /usr/src sudo apt-get install mercurial sudo hg clone http://jusst.de/hg/mantis cd mantis sudo make sudo make install sudo reboot
Sample kernel output

Remote Control Support
For the old driver (Manu's) RC works after applying the following patch. See [3]
NOTE: I wonder why this patch has not been merged into the trunk. Does it break anything?
In the new driver the remote works now without a patch.
CI support
CI/CAM support for the optional CI module is not working yet (14.08.2024)
Known Issues
Working around i2c bus probing interference with ivtv
If the mantis module won't load (hangs) with the error message
mantis_ack_wait (0): Slave RACK Fail !
you should check [[4]]
