Hello

Does anybody know if this devise will ever work with Linux? It was promised by one person last year the support will be available within months. One year has gone, nothing happens.
Is there any alternatives to develop a driver for this devise aside from this person?

Since there has been no answer to your question for some time, I think I will step in.

From http://mcentral.de/wiki/index.php5/Terratec_HTC_XS , the future for

a driver from Markus for this device does seem to look quite bleak. However, from looking in the mailinglist archive I gather that Steven Toth has offered to try getting it to work if someone is willing to provide him with a device.
Maybe you two could get in contact.
I myself am also interested in a driver for this device but I haven't got one yet.

Kind regards,

Alain

as far as i know there already exists a driver but it could not be published as it is based on the micronas refernce driver

i think the problem is related to

http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-December/030738.html

but this new situation with
http://www.tridentmicro.com/Product_drx_39xyK.asp

can maby change something about this chip

and it would be possible to get the rights to publish the driver under gpl-2

thx

This won't solve the issue that the AVFB4910 has been discontinued. This affects FM Radio, Analogue TV, Composite and S-Video, that IC didn't get bought by Trident.
