and this worked previously with the pvr250-port? strange?

anyhow: please test:
  http://usleepless.110mb.com/pvrxxx_port-07042007.tgz

i got tired of the "not supported tuner" requests and problems. i have
integrated the linux tuner-module and eeprom-module. so if i am not
mistaken, now all tuners ( that linux supports ) are supported.

let me know.

regards,

usleep
