[linux-dvb] State of Twinhan 7021a Starbox II support ?

[Linuxguy123]

I can buy a Twinhan 7021a Starbox II receiver locally.  I am wondering
how well it is supported by Linux with the most recent kernels.

I've checked here 

http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/DVB-S_USB_Devices 

where it says it is a work in progress, but it doesn't give a date.   Is
it still a work in progress ?

Thanks

The real USB2.0 version works.

Thanks, Patrick.

What do you mean by the "real USB2.0" version ?  Is there a USB1.0
version ? 

Do you know what size of picture it captures ?

Thanks

There is a USB1.1 version.

It is a DVB-S receiver box - no analog reception possible. It can deliver 
the full MPEG2 transport stream to the PC which itself contains several tv 
channel coded in MPEG2 - the size of picture there depends on the 
broadcaster.
