pinnacle pctv 7010ix and saa716x
Hello,
I have a Pinnacle pctv 7010ix that is oddly recognized as a Pinnacle PCTV 3010iX [1].
I found that the SAA7162 chip used in that device is supported while the device itself is not. I was a bit confused wich of the various repositories I encountered reflects the latest version of development, however, none of the linux/drivers/media/video/saa7164/saa7164-cards.c contained a string referring to said pinnacle card.
It seems like the only obstacle that keeps the card from working is the missing configuration for the board - how does one figure out that? I would like to get some hints on how to determine necessary configuration or test some.
regards
Benjamin

You cannot use a saa7162 based device with the saa7164 driver. They chipsets are too dissimilar.
Cheers,

This was why I tried the saa716x driver [1] that should work for saa7160, saa7161 and saa7162 based devices.
However, after downloading and compiling the driver and loading all saa716x_* modules, there was no /dev/dvb nor /dev/video, neither were there any messages from saa716x in dmesg (but lsmod did show them up as loaded) DespiteMAKE_ENTRY(NXP_REFERENCE_BOARD, PCI_ANY_ID, SAA7162,&saa716x_atlantis_config) should have been true for my card as far as I understand, I've added
#define PINNACLE 0x1131
#define PINNACLE_PCTV_7010IX 0x7162
MAKE_ENTRY(PINNACLE, PINNACLE_PCTV_7010IX, SAA7162, &saa716x_atlantis_config) with no change after repeating the procedure (and unloading the saa716x_hybrid module of cause)
lspci oddly recognizes the board as Pinnacle PCTV 3010iX, which only has one tuner module.
I've included lspci and dmesg output.
I'm looking forward for someone who could explain what is happening here and what I may do about it.
Best regards

sorry for forking out another discussion.
I am curious to know the status of saa716x driver, because I have a DMB-TH card with saa7160, does it has i2c and TS port working?
regards,
David

Probably not relevant to your problem, but my 3010iX has 2 tuners (hybrid, each can do DVB-T + analog).
