Description

So I bought this WinTV PVR 500 MCE card for my MythTV project. Unfortunately, the tuner is reported as "TCPN 2121P30A", and I couldn't find any information on the Web as to what tuner that would be compatible. Also, I had to mechanically modify the card itself to make it fit into a Shuttle ST62K case; so returning it is not an option. Any idea how to make this beast work?

Thanks,

Gerd

I also have one of these things, sadly. I am a reasonably skilled Sysadmin/QA Engineer, so I may be able to contribute some help, with guidance. I don't have any experience with hitting the hardware or reverse-engineering, but I'm willing to learn if someone can give me pointers. I've already started poking around in 0.4.0 to try to understand how the tuning process works.

Let me know what I can do, thanks.
