AverTV Hybrid Volar HX (A827)

Hello,

I noticed some posts from quite a long time ago from people interested in running AverTV A827 under Linux. Is anyone still interested or working on it? I'm currently mainly interested in getting the analog TV part working.

Regards,

Kuba Irzabek

Hi

Currently we have some progress with DVB-T part of this device - the only problem is, it's using uncommon USB comunication protocol I've not yet seen in other dvb usb tuner - it send BULK request and expect Interrupt responce and I'm not yet big expert on USB programming - and it needs some time.

Are you experienced USB programmer ?

It might allow us to get at least DVB-T part functional really soon then.

AFAIK there is no work done on Analog part.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. It's good news somebody is working on it. Unfortunately I'm not an experienced USB programmer. Anyway, I would be grateful if you could send some more info, maybe on my private mail. Maybe I could help then some way. What should be done to get the analog working?
