Comment 44 Jarod Wilson 2011-03-07 18:11:26 EST

I'll attempt to finally finish putting together the IR bits of the test plan and detail all the hardware that I've tested. Quick summary of tested devices:

-5 different mceusb IR transceivers
-streamzap IR receiver
-i2c-based IR receiver on PVR-350, HVR-1950 and HD-PVR
-em28xx-based Kworld digital tuner usb stick
-pvrusb2-driven HVR-1950 tuner (requires patches in bug 682906)
-hdpvr-driven HD-PVR component video capture usb device
-flexcop-driven AirStar HD-5000 tuner PCI card
-cx88-driven pcHDTV HD-3000 tuner PCI card
-cx2388x-driven HVR-1250 tuner PCIe card
-ivtv-driven PVR-250 tuner PCI card
-cx2388x-driven HVR-1500 tuner expresscard

Each of the tuner cards uses a different combination of tuner, demodulator and bridge drivers, so this covers probably at least 20 different media sub-device drivers here.

Comment 45 Jarod Wilson 2011-03-08 09:34:55 EST

Forgot to add:

-4 different imon IR receivers
-cx231xx-driven Conexant HybridTV tuner usb stick
