[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 11099"] hey RaStr, DMAN, First off I'm really impressed with the work you guys are putting in, though I feel RaStr won't be able to progress much further as the tuners on the Fusion and the Avermedia cards are totally different (Thomson vs. Samsung). Unless you're correctly initialising the tuner etc. by programming the MT352 you won't get a thing. There is publically available source for the Samsung tuner as part of the Technisat Airstar2 SDK on their web site, which might be of use if you're actively programming the MT352 (useful to find out which settings/controls need to be initialised etc.) and hacking that into the DVico driver (ie: change the 'initialise Thomson tuner' to 'initialise Samsung tuner', if they have different ways of being initialised).. I'm the gizmomelb running the public Avermedia beta on the Aussie DBA forums ([url]www.dba.org.au[/url]) and I'm in direct contact with some of the Avermedia higher management and the lead programmers for the A771/A800/A16A hardware.
