Using the TCL driver available in the pvrxxx port, VHFI and VHFIII work, I haven't tried VHFII (radio), UHF does not work, nor does SVideo, I've not gotten a chance to try Composite. I was looking for the documentation, unfortunately the manufacturers web site is in chinese, and the english language site is down, and apparantly has been for a while. What I would like if anyone could help... Should I be able to assume that MFNM05-4 documentation is the same for information regarding adding the tuner to the driver? I've also seen references to the MFNM05-4-E. Given that the Hauppauge sticker didn't peel cleanly and took some of the TCL sticker, i can't be certain that that is not my actual model number. I could read the ripped off portions by shining light through the hauppauge sticker... The '5' was cut in half but the right half of the five was definetly discernable on the ripped off portion, I didn't see a 4 there, but I did see the E. Yes, I know, I botched that one. The MFNM05-4 is reported as being the same as the Philips FM1236 MK3 in terms of interface, in several places and there is a driver here with similar enough format to the BSD driver that i think I can add the entry (once I figure out what everything means): http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/lxr/source/drivers/media/video/tveeprom.c So, could given that information, could anyone help me determine if the MFNM05-4 and my "MFNM05-E" are the same? Could anyone help me find the actual documentation (I can't find it on google, the english language portion of the TCL site is down, and apparantly has been for quite a while)?
