It is all over the driver's code. It could probably be safely dropped from the wiki page, it must only concern the coders. No -- its an interesting tidbit and the wiki pages are for all (end users ans coders alike). My only concern was whether that bit was relevant to the device or not. As it is, it can certainly stay. 3) Does this card support the diversity feature ... No. The PCI card that supports the diversity feature is NOT supported, and this has a full section dedicated to it. Now that was a bit of a bonehead on my part given that I set up that section (based on the info you and others have provided). how about other devices like - http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-NOVA-T-Stick - http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hauppauge_WinTV-NOVA-TD-Stick IIRC, Patrick mention something about the diversity feature not set in the Linux driver yet, but that the dual mode works. But to which devices does this apply. I'll let others answer that. I'm selfishly focusing on the T-500. No problem. I'm not familiar with the devices ... [nor do I really want to become more familiar with them given the closest DVB-T transmission to me is likely some four and a half thousand KM away :D ] ... hence, I'm hoping to prompt those who ARE familiar (and know to which devices Patrick was referring) can add the appropriate info.
