We can take this discussion off-list whenever you are ready. The card is
in the machine on which I am typing this, so I cannot remove it and look
on the underside at this time, but IIRC there indeed is an LG chip
there. The markings on the tuner chip are covered by a thermal compound,
so I cannot read them at all, but my best guess based on the card's
specs is that it is an XC5000. I would like there to be some way to
identify the tuner programmatically, though. However, before beginning
work on the card, I would strongly prefer to verify the functionality of
its baseband inputs, and I lack the cable to attach to the baseband
connector on the card. Can you by any chance determine the pinout, so
that I could have such a cable made? Thank you.
