TODO: Upload another image

Example Image: Add a good overall image of what the device looks like here and perhaps a very brief description

An ISDB-T USB Devices Siano Chipset.

The Smart Plus device might work under Linux kernel 2.6.38. (TODO: actually describe if it works)

Overview/Features

• USB interface
• Inputs: Antenna, Remote

Components Used

• USB 2.0 ISDB-T Stick (model UTV926)

Other Images

Use the included code to insert other images if necessary. Add as many high resolution pictures as you can i.e the card, the original box, the remote and, when uploading the files to the wiki, give them detailed specific names. Note: only use images taken by yourself or those 3rd party images for which you have received express written consent (such as from a vendor) that permits their usage. For example:

Making it Work

Is it supported under Linux? Are there experimental drivers? Does it partially work or identify as another card? (if yes, add this information below)

Firmware

The Windows driver will install the firmware at C:\Windows\system32\drivers\isdbt_nova_12mhz_b0.inp. You can copy and use this file to your linux firmware folder (ex. /lib/firmware).

Drivers

Both SMS_SIANO_MDTV and SMS_USB_DRV are required. They are already available in Linux kernel 2.6.38
