Using the current media tree build updated with the contents of the linux media drivers tarball dated 22/01/2012 the drivers for this card are still generating two frontends on the adapter as below: > >> Jan 23 12:16:44 Nutrigrain kernel: [ 9.346240] DVB: registering adapter 1 frontend 0 (Conexant CX24116/CX24118)... >> Jan 23 12:16:44 Nutrigrain kernel: [ 9.349110] DVB: registering adapter 1 frontend 1 (Conexant CX22702 DVB-T)... > > I understand that this behaviour is now deprecated and that the correct behaviour should be to generate one front end with multiple capabilities. Can this please be corrected. Same applies for many other devices too. For example some older Anysee E7 models have two chip and two frontends whilst new one have only one. Also TechnoTrend CT3650 and Hauppauge WinTV. Maybe it those are implemented later as one frontend, it not clear for me. Antti -- http://palosaari.fi/
