I am trying to make an AverMedia AverTV Hybrid Express (A577) work under Linux. It seems all major chips (cx23885, xc3028 and af9013) are already supported, so it should be doable in principle. I am stuck a little bit since AFAIK both cx23885 and xc3028 need an uploadable firmware. Where should I download/extract such firmware from? I tried Steven Toth's repo (the Hauppauge HVR-1400 seems to be built around these chips as well) but even after copying the files under /lib/firmware it didn't really work. I tried to specify different cardtypes for the cx23885 module. For cardtype=2 I got a /dev/video0 and a /dev/video1 (the latter is of course unusable, I don't have a MPEG encoder chip on my card) but tuning was unsuccesful. All the other types I tried either didn't work at all or only resulted in dvb devices detected. For the moment, I am fine without DVB, and are interested mainly in analog devices. Maybe I should locate the windows driver of my card and extract the firmware files from it? If so, how do I proceed?Have you followed these instructions?: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Xceive_XC3028/XC2028#How_to_Obtain_the _Firmware
Tried xc3028-v27.fw as well as v36 from Steven's site. There is nothing showing up in the syslog when modprobing tuner-xc2028 (the doc mentions the kernel driver should indicate which part it loads). What's the situation with cx23885? After digging into the various docs and descriptions pertaining to this chip, it's still not clear whether I need a firmware (and if so, where from may I download/extract it). Many thanks for your help! Greetings, Levente ------------------------------------------------------- A levelet a DE TEK levelez�dszeren kereszt�dt�
