thanks for providing more insight.

I really could not believe that we depend on dip-switch settings on
v4l-dvb. Last I saw such, despite of mobos, was in the mid of the
nineties on some ISA network cards.

Assured for now enough, that such stuff exists, we still have a serious
leak of documentation about hundreds of new devices recently rushed in.

I take this dip-switch just as an example.

Is there any documentation and how can a user know about it?

Without any, "criminal" is fine so far :)

Thanks,
Hermann
