Support for TBS6205 card #87

Closed bpbastos closed 9 years ago

bpbastos commented 9 years ago

Hello @ljalves,

I've received the 6205 card as a replacement for my 6285,this card is going to replace the TBS 6285.

According to TBS, this card uses the same chips as the 6285 they only have changed the pcie chip.

I'd to know if there is any chance of this card be added in your drivers and if there is anything I could do to help.

Many thanks to @bas-t helping me identifying the drivers.

Wierd that they have replaced the saa7160 with an FPGA (usually FPGAs are more expensive and have higher power consumptions that ASICs).

Well, in theory it should be very easy to add this card.

bpbastos commented 9 years ago

Thank you so much @ljalves.

I'm not a developer, but please let me know if I can be of any further help.

malakudi commented 9 years ago

As far as I know, SAA716X had initialization problems on some newer PCI-E 3.0 motherboards (some were fixed if your BIOS supported setting the PCI-E slot to Gen1 but not all boards support this), so they decided to replace it with a different chip. Same pci-e chip on TBS6905, the new TBS6985.

crazycat69 commented 9 years ago

TBS 6905 have STV6120/STV910BDB tuner/demod chips. Maybe later will be relesead TBS 6904 with 4x AV2011/TAS2101.

ljalves commented 9 years ago

@bpbastos, I'm closing this issue for now. If someone decides to donate any of those cards I can then work on adding new drivers.
