support for Leadtek WinFast PxTV1200

[amir sher]

I have a pci express card, the Leadtek WinFast PxTV1200 which has a 
CX23885 chip set and Xceive 2028 silicon tuner. As I understand the 
latest kernel (2.6.25) has support for all of those components on other 
cards but not specific to this one. Is it possible to add this support 
for this card as well? I guess it shouldn't be too hard.

Thank you,
Amir

Don't remove the mailing list from the reply, I've CC'd them back in.

Wow, you actually managed to buy a TV card that doesn't do digital tv:

http://www.amazon.com/Leadtek-WinFast-PxTV1200-Express-Tuner/dp/B000XRR04O

The current cx23885 linux tree does not support analog TV on that 
particular design.

You're out of luck!

Personally, I'd return it an buy something decent.

Regards,

- Steve
