Hi! I'm having problems with a newer Pinnacle PCTV-Pro card. Seems like the linux drivers can't use the tuner on the card. Composite and SVHS-input works fine. After consulting the kernel logs it seems like there is some problem with the driver for the tuner. The tuner detects as a MT2032, but doesn't work like one. After searching around quite a bit I saw some rumours that the tuner in the new Pinnacle cards is a MT2050, so I contacted microtune to get programming specifications for the 2050. I did not get hold of them, but I got the specifications for the 2040, and I tried implementing a linux driver for the MT2040 in the vain hope that it would have the same interface as the MT2050. That did not work either. I have contacted Pinnacle several times and always got the response that the tuner is a MT2032. Even after showing them the kernel logs and trying to tell them that it's quite strange that neither the tuner driver in bttv nor DSCALER in windows can use the tuner when the mt2032 should be supported, they just tell me that they do not support the linux drivers. So my questions are: Which tuner is used in the new Pinnacle cards? Does anyone have the programming specifications for that tuner? Has anyone heard anything from Pinnacle according to these new cards? Some snippets from my kernel log: Sep 8 23:51:16 montana kernel: MT2032: Companycode=3cbf Part=42 Revision=2f Sep 8 23:51:16 montana kernel: not a MT2032.
