[QUOTE="BioEgo, post: 1130838, member: 74791"] Confirmed, that's my tuner(y). To be 100% sure I compiled V4L-DVB drivers on my linux server and compared the dmesg output (attached for reference) after plugging in the tuner and it is the same as the one shown on linuxtv website. Everything seems to lead in that direction: I'm very curious to test it....it could be a cheaper alternative to the PCTV292e since they are equipping the same hardware after all. As far as the reasons for this choice go: I stick to marketing reasons....it's something even my company does with some equipment: we sell two versions "basic" and "pro" with the same hardware but the "basic" version firmware blocks some functions. At the end of the day it is cheaper than producing and stocking two different hardwares, and if you run out of stock of one of the two is just a matter of flashing the new firmware and you can switch models easily!:whistle: Usually though we just hide the functions, not masquerade them for something else!;) Thanks & Regards!
