There is an TDA 9886 on it (which is not detected I think. -Tried the 3DFx Voodoo-Card which seems to have the same tuner and I hoped for some other familiarities but had no luck) The Card has also an MSP 3450G (which is detected) and a BT 878A The Board-Revision is EMPTYV-51012969-1.4 But I have to correct myself: The Card is not a Studio but a PCTV pro (without Studio) -I went in some confusion because its not my own. I have it lying on my Desk now, but I can´ t fid the layout in Gunther Mayer Gallery. So I think -according to the article- the Pinnacle-Cards have a complete new Design. Tomorrow I send Gunther some nice Pictures of it. Jan
