@noggin I dug up a http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Te...k_CT2-4400 online, avoiding eMPIA chipset altogether.
An alternative was a PCTV tripleStick 292e but that one has eMPIA.
Sundtek appear to offer userspace driver support, but it is closed source and I'd like to keep blobs to a minimum. It bugs me already that there is no usable disassembler for start.elf. Also I can forward port a DVB driver to a later kernel's changes myself, but closed source userspace would keep me stuck. No chip porn for Sundtek and chipset unknown.
Chinese sticks with Realtek RTL2832U and Panasonic MN88472 demodulator are limited to QAM128 because the Realtek can't handle QAM256. Driver support also lacking.
