Hardware supported by the linuxtv.org DVB drivers
=================================================

.. note::

   This documentation is outdated. Please check at the DVB wiki
   at https://linuxtv.org/wiki for more updated info.

   Please look at
   https://linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Hardware_Device_Information
   for an updated list of supported cards.

Generally, the DVB hardware manufacturers frequently change the
frontends (i.e. tuner / demodulator units) used, usually without
changing the product name, revision number or specs. Some cards
are also available in versions with different frontends for
DVB-S/DVB-C/DVB-T. Thus the frontend drivers are listed separately.

.. note::

  #) There is no guarantee that every frontend driver works
     out of the box with every card, because of different wiring.

  #) The demodulator chips can be used with a variety of
     tuner/PLL chips, and not all combinations are supported. Often
     the demodulator and tuner/PLL chip are inside a metal box for
     shielding, and the whole metal box has its own part number.
