Re: [linux-dvb] New Hauppauge DVB PCIe devices HVR-2200, HVR-1700 and HVR-1200
These are Philips/NXP PCIe bridges, not supported under Linux. Manu is working on a driver for the same family of silicon but don't assume anything. I've updated the wiki a little with information I could get off the images I could find off the Hauppauge website. It looks it is based on the reference design from NXP/Philips. I think manu/steven? was/is working on drivers for this thing.. any update? ( I read it yesterday but can't find the link) Thanks ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

Manu was doing some work with the 716x silicon family, but as I said earlier - don't assume that it will result in a driver for this product. Manu can probably give you more detail. - Steve ___ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb

I would imagine that is usually to reduce costs. I assume that the buyers for the companies are always trying to negotiate lower prices to increase profit margins, and playing the various chip suppliers off against each other to shave a few cents off the components. If Dibcom refuse to lower their price any further, then the company will switch to ULI or some other manufacturer. Supply volume might also be an issue - maybe the current manufacturer cannot provide enough volume. Failure rate of the components might also be an issue.

I think the newer cards aren't realy better than the old ones. I have a skystar2.6b. This card is working very well but Technisat produced newer versions without realy new features. The only thing is the linuxdrivers need to be adapted for those cards. Technotrend FF dvb-2.1 and the s-2300 is another example. Sorry I hope you can understand what I mean. BR.

[linux-dvb] New Hauppauge DVB PCIe devices HVR-2200, HVR-1700 and HVR-1200
Been reading up on these as it appears that the HVR-2200 is now available in Australia. I've updated the Wiki (http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge) with initial pages for all of these cards, but I don't have any chip or technical details yet. Most of the information I could find was on their Singapore website - http://www.hauppauge.com.sg/web-content/pages/prods_hvr.html Can any of our Hauppauge contacts confirm the chipsets and technical details? The fact that the HVR-2200 is a dual hybrid tuner with DVB-T and MPEG2 hardware capture makes it a very interesting product.
