Introduction

LifeView's FlyTV Platinum cards have the Phillips SAA7135 chip with a global tuner that supports the NTSC, PAL BG/DK/I, and SECAM LL' video standards. Audio support includes NiCAM, A2, BTSC/MTS, and EIA-J.

There are several variants. These have the tda8275 and tda8290 tuner chips:

  • the FlyTV Low Profile FM card (shown in picture)
  • the FlyTV Platinum35 FM full size card (there's also a non-FM variant)
  • the FlyTV Platinum Mini is shipped with a number of laptops

Support under Linux appears to be good, thanks to patches submitted by Peter Misses to the 2.6.12 kernel.

The more recent laptop version has a different tuner (add details here if you have them):

  • the FlyTV Platinum Mini2

This card is also supported.
