I have a new WinTV GO that changed from the BTTV chip Connexant bought Brooktree quite some time ago. Their '878 and '879 are minor evolutions of the Bt848, and work great with the bttv driver - except for audio sometimes, since card designers seem to revel in wiring up the audio differently on every single card. Connexant's new CX2388x on the other hand has exactly the problem you mention: appearing stealthily in similarly named products, but different enough to need a whole new driver. An early prototype v4l driver has been mentioned on this list recently: "Linux driver is pre-alpha, http://bytesex.org/cx88/ - Gerd" > to a CONEXANT chip.
