If "octavsly" is able to assist, I believe the relevant background on the matters are essentially: A) SAA7160/1/2 - The current rendition of the driver that Manu has been developing resides here: http://jusst.de/hg/saa716x - IIRC, Manu found that some particulars of the chip(s) were not clearly documented within the datasheets he had been provided, so development is still largely a WIP B) SAA7164 - my understanding is that there was a fair amount of work towards a driver put in by Steve, but he has had to put this project on hold - a number of other people have expressed interest in pushing forth with this, but I would imagine that Steve may be prevented by NDA from aiding them in their interest
