SAA7162 status
Hi guys,
Any news on SAA7162? I know this is asked fairly often but it's been a couple of months since the last update. I did read that NXP are trying to gauge the amount of user interest. Well here is one Linux user who would buy such a card very soon if a working driver became available. I am also pondering about DVB-S2/T2 but I guess DVB-S/T isn't going away in the UK just yet. :)

I'm waiting for saa716x drivers as well. Hopefully we'll see some progress with them soon. I know Manu had been working on it but not sure how far along they are, and no clue how far Steven Toth got.

The SAA716x driver is supposed to support the following PCIe chips
SAA7160
SAA7161
SAA7162
The SAA716x development repository is at http://jusst.de/hg/saa716x
It is quite a work in progress, as of now. There are also some DVB-S2 cards based on the SAA7160.
Also, the SAA7164 chip is not supported by the SAA716x driver as it is a completely different chip altogether.
Regards,
Manu

Thanks, Manu. I'll keep an eye on that repository. :)

Yep, includes MPEG encoder ... I just couldn't remember, from prior conversations, whether the above driver could be extended to cover the 7164 as well, or whether it was a different matter altogether.
