Zolid Hybrid TV Tuner

[Sander Pientka <cumulus0007@gmail.com>]

So, I decided to give my miserable TV card one last shot. It's advert for eBay 
is done, the only thing that stops me from selling is the "Send" button.

Anyhow, after lots of searching mailing lists, I found out that I should have 
a look at the Vendor and Device ID and the Subdevice ID. So I did a deep lspci 
with the options vvvxxxnn:

SAA7131/SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder [1131:7133] (rev d1)
        Subsystem: Philips Semiconductors Device [1131:2004]

Apparently , the Vendor is Philips (1131), the device is the 
SAA7131/SAA7133/SAA7135 Video Broadcast Decoder (7133), I'm getting this info 
from pci.ids. But what about the subsystem? What's a subsystem? I opened 
CARDLIST.saa7134 and searched for 1131:7133. And I did get a hit:

 17 -> AOPEN VA1000 POWER                       [1131:7133]

Erhm, huh? An AOPEN? That can't be right. I have a Zolid, unless this card was 
rebranded, which should be possible according to it's low cost.

Then, I hit ctrl+f and searched for my subsystem ID. Wow, and there were hits, 
2 to be precise!

 61 -> Philips TOUGH DVB-T reference design     [1131:2004]

 69 -> Philips EUROPA V3 reference design       [1131:2004]


Hmm, so my card can be a reference design too... A reference design, is it 
allowed to sell those things?

Now I'm confused.

Btw, I'm sorry for being a bit ironic, but I've had it with this card.
