Technical Details

The i2c protocol is encapsulated within the USB Control messages, looks like it's nothing special but someone would have to spend some time on it.

Captured Windows USB Transfer (usbsnoop)

  • After some heroic efforts, I was able to get some snoop through usbmon and vmware.
 Here's the log [1]. It initialized the card and began the tuning.
 Then XP died. So there's only the begining of tuning. Enough to get the card going.
  • Those logs have been taken with usbmon.
  • Update of the matter, I've been able to get a full log (tuning, tv channel and changing channel) with a tool called USBTrace.
 The logs are available here [2]. Beware of the size, this hog weigths 200M.
 On the funny side, USBTrace is hanging when I try to export the logs in a txt file. I'll try to convert them in chunks.
 On the dark side, I don't know the format of USBTrace. I hope it's only RAW USB data with timestamps and numbers.
