can you confirm that the nova-td-500 is supported

just bought what i though was a t-500 and when i opened the box it contained a td-500

the wiki says (in bright bold colours) that it is not (and never would be) supported

however, from looking at the mailing list it appear to be supported

i can of course take it out of the sealed bag and try

however, to preserve any change of swapping it i thought i would ask here first

regards

Hi

For me it's still kind of 80% working status, it works on 4 of 5 muxes (read more about it here:
http://www.linuxtv.org/pipermail/linux-dvb/2008-November/030601.html).
I been tracking the problem from time to time by comparing usbsnoop logs from the windows driver. Windows driver works on all 5 muxes. For the moment I have found some differences in demod driver (dib7000p) and the tuner driver (dib0700). I will have some more time during Christmas holiday to investigate it further.

Regards, Jyrki

There is a very old version of the board that is not supported. There are very few of those boards around nowadays.

The new Nova-TD-500 is definitely supported. Look for the 84xxx model number -- that is the new revision. This is the one that you are likely to have, if you recently purchased that board.

Mike
