What UA means here?
UA means 'for Ukraine edition'. I assume you can read in Russian and following link is told you something more http://forum.avertv.ru/lofiversion/index.php/t757.html I've found two differences between 507 and 507UA: a) the differ subdevice number and b) only one (?) composite input. In last v4l-dvb the two composite inputs are described in the sources for 507 [#102].
Ok, actually I believe that two inputs for composite is just a misunderstanding from the author of 507 patch. Looking at the 507 pictures from http://www.hardwareportal.ru/Multimedia/Beholder.507/index.html one can found that there is only one composite. Two composites are very rare case. So I believe that correct patch should just add another pci entry with appropriate comment and remove composite input. Also, to apply the patch we need your Sign-Off-By.
And, remote on this card should be different from 307. Did you test it works?
But if it's really differs in tuner module and has MK5 tuner instead of MK3, that's it's certainly better to add new entry.
1. Really, I think so about two composits in the 507 patch. 2. No, I didn't test. Just copy these strings from 507 patch (And here good idea to add several words for testers in the sources) 3. Yes. The last digit in the tuner model is 5 instead of 3 Full model string: FM1216ME IH5
Some words about sign-off-by. What is this? The my patch for the ALSA (#5461) has been applied without any additional information from me. Yes, the sign-off-by string with my name is present in that changelog. Thanks for explanation.
Can we close this bug now?
mchehab should include this patch into tree. It's not included still I suppose
The code has been merged, it is currently in 2.6.22-rc4. Closing the bug. Thanks.
linux 2.6.22.5 from FC7 still not contain the patch.
Was the patch submitted/merged? Can someone update the status please. Thanks.
The patch were already added: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/mchehab/v4l-dvb.git;a=commit;h=e8018c9e78b0ff4bb0290e46f4045fb4ea589ae8
Thank you Mauro. Closing the bug.
May be I'm wrong, but specified patch doesn't cover the PCI SSID 0x1461:0xa11b.
Mauro - ping - confirmed this one has still somehow escaped merging
Alan, Yes, you're right. It escaped from my eyes. I've committed it right now at the development tree: http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/rev/77ebdc14cc24 I should add it at -git later, after merging some other pending stuff.
