-Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 cards
-------------------------------------
-
-All cards with Bt848/Bt848a/Bt849/Bt878/Bt879 and normal Composite/S-VHS inputs
-are supported.
-Teletext and Intercast support (PAL only) via VBI samples decoding in software.
-
-Some cards with additional multiplexing of inputs are only partially
-supported (unless specifications by the card manufacturer are given).
-
-All other cards only differ by additional components as tuners, sound decoders,
-EEPROMs, teletext decoders ...
-
-Tuner and sound decoder support for Bt878/879 is not fully working yet.

-- Bt848A
-- 4 Composite inputs, 1 S-VHS input (shared with 4th composite)
-- EEPROM

-
-This card has no tuner but supports all 4 composite (1 shared with an
-S-VHS input) of the Bt848A.
-Very nice card if you only have satellite TV but several tuners connected
-to the card via composite.
-
-Many thanks to Matrix-Vision for giving us 2 cards for free which made
-Bt848a/Bt849 single crytal operation support possible!!!

-Miro/Pinnacle PCTV
-------------------
-
-- Bt848
- some (all??) come with 2 crystals for PAL/SECAM and NTSC
-- PAL, SECAM or NTSC TV tuner (Philips or TEMIC)
-- MSP34xx sound decoder on add on board
- decoder is supported but AFAIK does not yet work
- (other sound MUX setting in GPIO port needed??? somebody who fixed this???)
-- 1 tuner, 1 composite and 1 S-VHS input
-- tuner type is autodetected

-Many thanks for the free card which made first NTSC support possible back
-in 1997!

-Hauppauge Win/TV pci
---------------------
-
-There are many different versions of the Hauppauge cards with different
-tuners (TV+Radio ...), teletext decoders.
-Note that even cards with same model numbers have (depending on the revision)
-different chips on it.
-
-- Bt848 (and others but always in 2 crystal operation???)
- newer cards have a Bt878, I2C support for it is still experimental
-- PAL, SECAM, NTSC or tuner with or without Radio support
-
-e.g.:
- PAL:
- TDA5737: VHF, hyperband and UHF mixer/oscillator for TV and VCR 3-band tuners
- TSA5522: 1.4 GHz I2C-bus controlled synthesizer, I2C 0xc2-0xc3
-
- NTSC:
- TDA5731: VHF, hyperband and UHF mixer/oscillator for TV and VCR 3-band tuners
- TSA5518: no datasheet available on Philips site
-- Philips SAA5246 or SAA5284 ( or no) Teletext decoder chip
- with buffer RAM (e.g. Winbond W24257AS-35: 32Kx8 CMOS static RAM)
- SAA5246 (I2C 0x22) is supported
-- 256 bytes EEPROM: Microchip 24LC02B or Philips 8582E2Y
- with configuration information
- I2C address 0xa0 (24LC02B also responds to 0xa2-0xaf)
-- 1 tuner, 1 composite and (depending on model) 1 S-VHS input
-- 14052B: mux for selection of sound source
-- sound decoder: TDA9800, MSP34xx (stereo cards)

-Doesn't work:
- - autodetect. Use card=21
- - sound mute. Use the line-in volume of your soundcard
- - radio tuner. Since the card doesn't have an antenna, it is quite
- understandable ;) However, you can hear some stations if you
- ``ln -s /dev/bttv0 /dev/radio''
