1 Hardware supported by the linuxtv.org DVB drivers
2 =================================================
4 Generally, the DVB hardware manufacturers frequently change the
5 frontends (i.e. tuner / demodulator units) used, usually without
6 changing the product name, revision number or specs. Some cards
7 are also available in versions with different frontends for
8 DVB-S/DVB-C/DVB-T. Thus the frontend drivers are listed seperately.
10 Note 1: There is no guarantee that every frontend driver works
11 out of the box with every card, because of different wiring.
13 Note 2: The demodulator chips can be used with a variety of
14 tuner/PLL chips, and not all combinations are supported. Often
15 the demodulator and tuner/PLL chip are inside a metal box for
16 shielding, and the whole metal box has its own part number.
